Yes, Harry. This is because they just don&#039;t care about anything else except themselves.

Sod the old people, the orphans, the disadvantaged members of our society. 

In socialism and communism these people are allowed to die off because they tend to screw up the Marxist Utopia.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[These boards just make me laugh and at the same time worry.  Why in heaven&#039;s name is there not a resident from SVPR on the board? Why is there not an old person from the community?  These are the people who reside there, and those who will become residents.  Any nurses and medical doctors on the board?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[19 expressions of interest have been submitted to build a new gas plant in Delimara.

http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20130511/local/Big-names-put-in-gas-plant-bids.469190

&quot;Shell, Edison and Russian-owned global energy giant Gazprom among bidders&quot; says The Times.

Now, as part of &quot;hitting the ground running,&quot; shall we lend a hand to the government in the selection process - maybe we can have the tariffs reduced six months earlier in return?

If we use the &quot;Evarist Bartolo&quot; rule, which broadly says that any company linked to corruption is to be eliminated from the procurement process, then, following a five minutes search on the internet, Shell and Gazprom are out.

					<description><![CDATA[Contrast the seriousness of the dementia issue to the glaring lack of professionalism and insensitivity. 

I am disgusted by the impression given that Labour are set to solve the problem that was otherwise neglected under the prior administration.

This is not true. Medication to treat dementia is very expensive and free of charge thanks to Nationalist initiatives. Diagnosis is lengthy and equally expensive. This is also available for free at Karen Grech Hospital.

Care is also available through an entire system of government funded support including nursing and a wonderful helpline manned by some really caring people.

While it is true that there are long waiting lists for St V de Paul, it is equally true that the problem is growing.

These insensitive idiots have no clue what it means to see one&#039;s family members destroyed by the disease. They should just do something to improve the situation rather than use it as an opportunity to show off and reward their lackeys.

They should quiz the people manning the helpline.  Within two minutes talking to one lady there, I was told that there are many dementia victims who are entirely alone and have no family support. 

Why wasn&#039;t this investigated? Or is this level of detail beyond the purview of the Right Honourable Minister?

I do not want to politicise the issue but thanks Minister for reinforcing my choice - PN. Their strategy was clear and it was all about giving care to those afflicted by the disease and to supporting their family members. 

Yours is only an empty show.]]></description>
