I feel the same way, Mandy. I wonder what all those people are thinking, who I used to spend time with and then realized aren’t worth even looking at anymore after their stupidity during election time.

Did they not see this coming like the rest of us did? I hope they are proud of themselves. They definitely aren’t bragging all over Facebook like they used to.

Eight months down the line and they’ve already run riot. In five years time our country is going to be in shambles. Viva Labour.

When, pre-election, I said publicly that having Labour in power would mean us going back to the 1970s/early 1980s, I was laughed at.

To those ‘friends’ and acquaintances who derided me, themselves convinced that that was “a new movement and times have changed” , I hate to say “I told you so, but …”.

And where the hell is Kurt Sansone’s editor? Does he have an agenda too?

Kurt Sansone mhux serju fl-opinjoni tieghi. F’artikolu li kiteb fuq it-Times fil-11 ta’ Ottubru 2009, gideb meta qal li ragel mil-Mosta mar Kastilja u beda jispara, u ta wiehed x’jifhem li spara fuq Mintoff.Skond l-Inkjesta kemm Filletti u kemm Muscat Azzoppardi, PC Sammut qal car u tond li Karm Grima qatt ma spara, li l-anqas kien armat imma hedded li jmur igib arma ghax ghandu dritt jara l-Mintoff f’pajjiz demokratiku; li dahluh f’kamra maghluqa u ghal taparsi qalulu li Mintoff gej ikelmu;li Dom Montoff kien f’kamra f’wing iehor ta’ Kastilja jiddiskuti ma delegazzjoni minn North Korea sat-3.30 pm u li Il-maggur Thewma kellu ordni stretta biex joqtol lil Grima ghax kellu ittra sensittiva hafna fuq il-Lorry Sant li kienet se tikxfu fuq ghaqdiet sigrieti li kien imdahhal fijhom;Thewma mas-security officer u il-body guard ta’ Mintoff bexqu il-bieb u tlitt idejn , bil-pistoli f’idhom bdew jisparaw indiskriminalment fuq Grima u laqtuh bi tlitt bullets imma ma mietx u ghalhekk komplew ituh bil-butt tal-pistoli go rasu biex joqtluh imma x’hin semghu il-passi tal-fotografiku tat-Times harbu; ittiehed l-isptar fil-karozza privata; u wara saru erba’ attentati ohra fuq hajjet Grima. Dan Kurt Sansone evada li jsemmi anzi ma qalx li ironikalment, kien Dom Mintoff li salvalu hajtu meta qal fuq ir-radio li min imiss lil Grima irid jghatih kont ta’ ghemilu!

TYPICAL. VERY VERY TYPICAL. The POLICE know very well that contraventions do not entail arrest. They are using the methods of Mintoff’s day. SO WHAT HAPPENS? THEY SAY THAT THEY ARE ACTING ON THE PRETEXT OF AN INVESTIGATION OF A CRIME. Therefore the suspect becomes liable to arrest.

Then follow all the fuss, police cars, armed policemen, arrest, confiscation, six o’ clock/eight o’ clock/eleven o’ clock news and all. Worse than this was the other tactic. THE COMMISSIONER USED TO WALK IN AND tell his subordinate officer that HE the commissioner has confidential information that So and So is dealing in drugs, or weapons, or smuggling, or even a COUP D`ETAT.

The subordinate told of such serious allegations would be left with no alternative but to commence the investigation.

HOW SHOULD OUR SOCIETY BE PROTECTED FROM SUCH EVIL-DOING AND SNARES? IS IT NOT ABOUT TIME THAT OUR POLICE OFFICERS BE OFFERED SAFETY AND PROTECTION FROM SUCH FRAME-UPS?
IS NOT ABOUT TIME THAT SOCIETY GAVE ITS POLICE FORCE THE RIGHT TO HAVE PROTECTION FROM INTERNAL ABUSE OF RANK, POWER AND MISMANAGEMENT IN THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE LAW?

This is what the new Labour movement should be considering next once it has now dealt with that milestone of legislation regarding civil union. This is what we should be agitating for because it involves the safeguarding of our rights at the roots.

Kurt Sansone would make a great spokesman for a Fascist movement.

Kurt Sansone should know that the public interest is a fundamental democratic principle like public security. He works in the media, so he should know this.

What does Kurt Sansone think about the Edward Snowden and Julian Assange revelations to the world? Does he think that those revelations should never have been made because they threaten the security of the US?

There are many other documented instances where public security is not allowed to repress public interest.

The police should make public the video they claim to have, showing Norman Vella taking photos. Their credibility is in question.
