Eating dirt?  Is that what she&#039;s eating here?

					<description><![CDATA[I am pleased to have read this article. The information you have is correct although it&#039;s only a fraction of the actual facts.

I wish I could tell you more.

					<description><![CDATA[I think the reason for his resignation is more insidious than him being by-passed.   

Dr. Stafrace is well versed in environmental legislation and EU environment directives.  He knows very well that there is no way that the Maltese government can avoid having an Environmental Impact Assessment for the new power plant at Delimara.    

I can only speculate but I think he resigned because he refuses to endorse a decision which he knows to be illegal.  

The same applies to Petra Bianchi.  It is no coincidence that the two resigned virtually simultaneously.]]></description>

Eating dirt. She stuck her neck out &quot;in favour of the environment&quot;, asking us to elect Joseph Muscat. So they did (I didn&#039;t) and what did we all get? A prime minister hell bent on undoing what little environmental protection we already had so that he can please his sponsors and friends.

And her husband wasn&#039;t even made Police Commissioner after all.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hilarious how The Times tries to depict it as an &#039;offer&#039;, whereas Maltatoday will have her hanged, drawn and quartered; Petra Bianchi a &#039;political appointee&#039; and one by Mario De Marco, of all people. 

Fact is, at no point was Mepa as rigid, technocratic and as advanced an authority as these past years. Anyone who chooses to digress, either has their abuse to sanction or is plain outdated. 

If it has to be fragmentation of policy, killing any deterrent, as Muscat looks bound to deliver, it could be his undoing. 
Gonzi was &#039;punished&#039; for having bridled abuse and having the gall to define boundaries, problem is, when a bunch of charlatans took up lobbying, government was at fault.   

Caqnu just put up a tower crane in Balluta.]]></description>
