Tighallem u tkbirt

[Daphne – Learn the difference between typos and spelling mistakes. Do you know how many thousands of words I go through every day?]

Thanks Daphne.
Tikber u titghallem.

[Daphne – ‘Tikber u tighallem’. Hemm ghalfejn tkun tkbirt? If nobody taught you, you should have picked up on it through listening. When did you ever hear the expression ‘I am not your carpet’? That’s right – never. But you might have heard ‘I am not your doormat’.]

I live in Romania, where most people hardly know Malta exists or if they do know, they cannot place it an a map of Europe. Yet in the last few days I have been asked what sort of country Malta is and why is its government behaving like this.

One, a priest, told me:” I thought Malta was a Christian country and was one of the EU members that insisted on the European Constitution including a refernce to the Christian tradition of the continent. Is the government Christian? Does it know the meaning of Christian or does it practise its own form of Christianity?”

I feel I have to agree with those, especially those living away from the island, that it makes me ashamed and even afraid to say I am Maltese.

Le ma tistax, ghax dawn huma l-feelings tal-maggoranza tal-poplu tajjeb jew hazin ma nidholx fiha. Imma l-poplu lil JM tah mandat bi 36000 vot min fuq jigiferi issa jekk ma jaqbilx mijaw 4 snin ohra jista jerga jibdel. Imma nahseb fuq din l-issue l-maggoranza ghadhom warajh fuq affaerijiet ohra jista jkun li le.

Why not make a referendum to see if the majority of the people is behind him on this issue? After all in democracy the one who has majority wins or there is an other interpretation of democracy.

[Daphne – Here’s why not: there can be no referendum on human rights. And they should be no referendum on minority rights. The divorce referendum was wrong and led to disaster, in terms of perception, for the Nationalist Party.]

500 million+ european people can work here as I can go an work in their country. We never voted to be outnumered by Africans or did we because if yes then I must have forgot. Get a life & stop this crap

Amorality may get you what you want but it also makes you a despicable person.

And it’s those migrants’ children who will eventually be paying income tax and social security …
