Chill out, Grace. Partying hard and getting drunk in-between and when you&#039;re in a very important job, does not look right.

As for you, party hard as much as you please - it only means you need to if you insist on doing it on a regular basis.

As for these men - NO - being on the Maltese tax payer&#039;s payroll means they need to behave decently or just resign. There&#039;s the people&#039;s money involved.

And whatever happened to the &quot;Meritokrazija&quot; crap billboard ta&#039; dik hemm? Dottoressa whatever - forgot her name.

Lanqas haqq il-flus li nhlew.  So muct for MERITOKRAZIJA!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[

I met this man a couple of years ago, was introduced to him by a friend we had in common at the time.  He looked like someone really desperate to get hooked as he kept pestering me.  In practical terms and to cut a long story short, I think he somehow puts women off him and I shall tell you why.

All through our conversation he kept talking about PORN movies and how important PORN is to men, so much that even though he worked at Super One, he and his colleagues were allowed to watch PORN movies during office hours. PORN sites at ONE were not filtered or blocked as they usually are in decent offices or companies. He was NOT drunk; we met at a reception and during office hours.

Oh God, I thought. I found the conversation was so distasteful, I couldn&#039;t believe I was talking to people who have &#039;important&#039; roles and jobs.  Like you I felt there were not so many normal people left in Malta so I did myself a big favour and went off to the UK where I currently live. 

At the moment I am in Malta enjoying some sun as that is the only thing I really miss about this place.  NOTHING ELSE.  Some people here are very mixed up.

No, but the facts speak for themselves and JPO has already been caught lying about what happened (re Franco). 

Mr Azzopardi has certainly provided the most rational and believable story and he had the bruises and the broken specs to prove it. He was also the one who called the police.

Now, I&#039;m expecting you to get all PL paranoid and declare that he caused his own bruises and broke his own spectacles. I can just imagine him socking his own face.

The whole story is an obvious case of bullies who had the advantage of numbers and attacked a weaker prey. 

This is hardly fitting behaviour for any adult particularly one occupying JPO&#039;s position. 

But then JPO is not exactly known for his discreet behaviour is he? Any normal person would think twice about defending a 50 year old man who seems intent on behaving like a particularly immature 20 year old. 

Forget that, I&#039;m insulting 20 year olds, as the ones I know wouldn&#039;t behave like that.

JPO has a history of lying and playing with words and until PL decided that he was their friend, they were at the forefront accusing him of lies. This behaviour is typical of him. 

It&#039;s also typical of Labour to defend him - after all, to them, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

I support the Nationalist Party but I have never defended JPO. If there was one good thing which happened over the last couple of years, it was that JPO and Franco Debono became persona non grata to all those supporting PN.]]></description>
