And yet the conflict of interest needs to be spelled out and the Opposition should start being an opposition even – especially – on such matters.

What about Cherylanne Aquilina? She is not much older than Justyne.

Will property law knowledge come in handy to decide whether a couple is eligible to adopt?

As a parent of two teenagers I have no interest in adopting children, but I was wondering, if a client has a problem during the adoption process, does one appeal to the board or to the ministry’s customer care? Only in Malta taht il-Labour.

d) making recommendations to the court and, or to the central authority regarding a prospective adoptive parent;

The daughter sits on the board and her mother gives judgements in court.

So it`s another cock-up by Coleiro Preca (who positions herself as the champion of the poor who are a figment of her imagination).

A 22 year old has no place on that board, appointing her determines a compromised government unable to function logically and properly.

It’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep a rational approach with these people. Not that it was ever easy, blokka bajda/blokka silg comes to mind.

Muscat set the pattern with his flippant retorts, the degree of blatant lying unprecedented.

We’re back to arguing ‘is-sewwa maghruf’. I understand the PN’s busy getting itself sorted, but do we need a vocal, persistent opposition.

Let Kurt get all het up with his ‘politika pozittiva’ and ‘poplu li warrab’.

Sometimes the message makes the medium, if it’s strong and of its time.

Michael Buhagiar has Johann Buttigieg as his ‘widna’ in MEPA, Marie Louise Coleiro Preca has Connie Griffiths Bianchi as her ‘widna’ on the Adoption Board. A pattern is emerging. Thr Soviet, Red China, and North Korean culture is alive and well within Joseph Muscat’s Labour Party. He is doing Duminku Mintoff proud.

Was the young women in question adopted herself ?

From the adoption statute:

(2) The Minister shall endeavour to have a person over the age of eighteen years who is adopted and a person who is or was an adoptive parent as part of the Adoption Board, and such persons may be appointed at any time during the term of office of the Adoption Board.
