He can afford to joke during this budget speech, the brat, because he found everything laid out on a silver plate.

					<description><![CDATA[People, there is no one to blame but ourselves. 

Can anyone explain to me why most people keep on saying that the Nationalist were arrogant? What does that mean? 

Yes, PN ministers did not spend much time talking to people on the street, that&#039;s because there were few ministers and there main job was to manage the country and not listening to people moaning about how the Arriva bus was late on this and that day. 

Lawrence Gonzi was focused on his duty to create jobs, keep a stable but growing economy and control on budget deficits. 

Now our PM, see it fit to make sleazy jokes on budget speech. Yes, it was certainly a change, but a bad change indeed. 

I despair.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[One new casino and a yacht marina in Gozo, with the spectre of land reclamation to top it all. After all the crusades, Astrid Vella and Gozitan allies of hers have now fell very silent. They must be leaping with joy.

I don&#039;t know why I cannot remove this strange feeling from my head: with most of them being pl activists or pseudo-turncoat testimonials, my suspect is that environment was merely an excuse for them to take shots at the previous administration.]]></description>
