They did so when their application for the bus depot in an ODZ area was refused.

Ray Fenech is now a director at Air Malta, along with his power station partner Joe Gasan. One wonders how these fellows manage to be involved in everything, under every government.

My thoughts exactly. The veil of ‘Labour Party’ (concealing the old, corrupt, anti-business and totally totalitarian MALTA Labour Party) is getting thinner and thinner with each passing day. ‘LP’ has always been a mere facade.

It’s a real shame the majority of the electorate weren’t able to see through such shoddy disguise.

Re Arriva: I’ve always had a hunch that Labour made extensive use of its influence over the media to report on every single traffic accident involving an Arriva bus, irrespective of whether it was the bus driver’s fault or someone else’s.

Apparently Tumas Group pulled out ages ago.

All together now: “Labour is sejf for business.” “Inhallukom tahdmu.” “Inbdilna.”

After Black Monday (15 October 1979), The Times should have known better.

By the way, did we hear anything about Black Monday this year?

The prostitute does what one pays `her` to do.
