Comments on: The case of Twanny Bronka and Gozo Channel is now closed. Because the prime minister said so.

In reply to pablo.

We’re in power, so shut up.

We want to travel and see the world, so shut up.

We want to have fun at your expense, so shut up.

It’s our turn, so shut up.

A crowd of idiots believed us and didn’t believe you, because we were shinier (more Chinese money to spend), so shut up.

In reply to Freedom5. They did raise the issue way back when the declarations were made, but as usual everyone was intent on slamming the PN no matter what.

The Right Hon. Prime Minister said that Gozo Channel policy was broken and that the Minister corrected a wrong. Would Gozo Channel please be kind enough to clarify what policy was broken and when it became a policy – you know, just in case it was implemented after the fact?

Ah, the emperor has spoken… case closed.
But tell that to the duty manager who has been unjustly suspended. Has our prime minister absolutely no conscience?

In reply to WhoamI?. I agree. Can't wait to hear Justyne Caruana's vote in Parliament.

OK. Once again, I will make myself available for a million and one eggs.

What is stopping the PN from calling a “Mozzjoni ta’ sfiducja” in parliament?

I know that it will be defeated given that Labour have such a majority in parliament, but it would be on record in the country’s highest institution – media reports will fizzle away into nothing after a few days.

And people will forget regardless. This is the same thing that Labour used to do last year and the one before that. There were instances when it must have been clear to them that the motion will be defeated, yet they still presented one.

In reply to canon.

And the Sunday Times said that “If there is any accountability left in the Labour Government, he (the Bronka) should resign, or be dismisssed with immediate effect.”

The Sunday Times has no option but to conclude that there is no accountability left in the Labour Government.

I am not of the same opinion as The Sunday Times – I never believed that there was any accountability to start with in the Labour Government. The Sunday Times preferred to give Muscat the benefit of the doubt, but it has been let down.
