					<description><![CDATA[Two can play this divisory game.  Hopefully Simon will grab the bull by the horns and take advantage of the fact that at this point in time only the government can do wrong.

Muscat has declared to all and sundry that Malta is in a good place considering the current international situation.

If things go wrong he cannot put any blame on the opposition, not with the 9 seat majority and with all the changes he has effected in all positions of responsibility.

He can harp as much as he wishes and Super One can harp on as much as they want, the switchers do not watch partisan channels.  All they see is the money in their pockets.  If that starts reducing they will switch back at the bat of an eyelid.

Rest assured that some already have.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am all in favour of ending this &#039;us and them&#039; mentality.

Maybe while we&#039;re at it we can also change the end of &#039;us and all for them&#039; that we have had for the past two months.

If we don&#039;t, there will not be any of us left and soon it will be all them.]]></description>

Overlooking, of course, that the Gonzi led government managed to save hundreds of existing jobs, created some 20,000 more, and kept the country&#039;s finances stable. 

All that despite the disloyalty of JPO, the off-his-rocker behaviour of Franco Debono, the international financial crisis, the turmoil in North Africa, and, last but not least, the Labour Party in Opposition which made the most of those troubles to put spokes into every wheel in its bid for power.

Joseph Muscat in government is now being seen for the inept and incompetent fake he really is. 

His opportunistic appointees are milking the system for all its worth before its inevitable and proximate collapse.]]></description>
