Funny enough, I did hear rumours about 3 months back, that Arriva was going to be phased out and a new operator nominated.

Look for the blue-eyed competitor and you’ll have the whole picture.

Not so much a privileged social partner, as the partner actually calling the shots. GWU man Mario Cutajar running the civil service; GWU stooge Bencini chairing the MCESD.

All the members except those who fancy Bencini should have boycotted it.

GWU is meeting all ministries, they are already considered as the priviliged social partner of the government.

They called a strike against Arriva, which indicates they want to cripple the company.

Such fine distinctions as consulting and merely informing, being in the Opposition and being in government, the party and the government, parliament and the executive … completely escape Joseph Muscat.

Now, how about a public statement by MEA on the outcome of the meeting, and the position they have now adopted. Or is it another white flag, as is the case with the GRTU.
