					<description><![CDATA[Had Joseph Muscat never became Prime Minister, no one would have doubted his ability to govern.

There&#039;s just one rule for politicians: Don&#039;t say in power what you say in Opposition; if you do, you only have to carry out what the other fellows have found impossible.

His talk of Malta Taghna Ilkoll and Meritocracy has now turned into lies.

His problem now is trying to save both his faces.

The tragedy of one successful politician after another is the gradual substitution of narcissism (abnormalself-admiration) for an interest in the community.

From the word go, Muscat&#039;s list of oppointees in high positions is initself  an exercise in seeking self interest over community interest.

All political parties die at last of swallowing their own lies.

					<description><![CDATA[Marlene Farrugia&#039;s resignation shows the inability of Joseph Muscat as a leader or to put it in other words &#039;not having the capabaility to govern&#039;.

The hardest problem Joseph Muscat is facing is the way he ought to please and reward all those (whether labour deputies / followers or nationalists-turned-labourites)  who worked for achieving his victory. He cannot deny the promise he has made them - so he has to find a way to please them all. He has been &#039;hijacked&#039; by his own people.]]></description>
