We had ex MInisters, P/Sects etc who did just that or worse by voting Labour for not getting what they wanted. Are they all immature?

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - Yes. Immaturity has nothing to do with age (unless you really are young). In adults, it&#039;s the result of abnormal/arrested psychological/emotional development.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

I love the way every time Daphne writes about something that touches a sensitive nerve, certain people tell her to stop &quot;making more damage&quot; to the PN.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - Well, wouldn&#039;t you know, Ivan Camilleri actually thinks that by not voting he was doing the PN a favour. Because somewhere in their minds, there&#039;s &#039;the real party&#039; waiting to come out. And in Ivan&#039;s case, one that is preferably not led by Mario de Marco, because if it is, he won&#039;t vote for it, again.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

Hi Daphne, it&#039;s not disturbing at all - in the US of A, it&#039;s called pork barrel politics and it goes a long way to satisfying the demands of the populace. Take the US ambassadorial post to Malta for example, the post is usually occupied a minion in the ruling party&#039;s machinery and , hey presto! you&#039;re suddenly ambassador of a little island in the Med.]]></description>
