					<description><![CDATA[This is an excellent piece:
http://carolinemuscat.com/2013/10/the-prime-minister’s-un-speech-fact-or-fiction/

What an absolute hypocrite Muscat is. How does he have the gall to speak the way he did at the UN when he took the action he did a few months ago? So at the UN he has a different audience than the bigots and racists in this country. How do the latter feel now reading/listening to this speech? Does it sound like the same man? 

There is no doubt in my mind that Muscat&#039;s decisions in government will be populist ones. Not decisions which are needed for the country but those designed to ensure that he remains PM. So much for all his accusations at Gonzi li &#039; iggranfat mas-siggu tal-poter&#039;.  

One would be forgiven for thinking that his strategy team are just focused on giving the majority of people what they want, regardless how inhumane, dangerous (stirring up the racist sentiment), or costly  (MTA&#039;s budget being used to give free tickets to joseph calleja&#039;s concert instead of marketing Malta as it should be doing) his actions may be.

Whilst Muscat may continue to dupe the majority on these islands, his reputation on the international stage is another thing all together. He cannot &#039;stamp his feet&#039; the way he did and then give a speech like this. His are but hollow words and will be seen as such. The sad thing is that he drags Malta&#039;s reputation down with him too.]]></description>

What is Nair’s relationship to Patricia Hills, London Executive Assistant to Edward de Bono, who is registered at the same address as Pradeep Prenyan Shivshankar Nair&#039;s UK registered businesses  at 135 (b), Holland Park Avenue, whilst her husband Richard Hills is listed with “Shiv Shankor” at 135(a), Holland Park Avenue?

Is the Malta connection pure coincidence?]]></description>
