The Labour Party in Opposition courted Shiv Nair with intention and fully cogniscant of the big black stain on his reputation.

They even went to the extreme of applying mob pressure from different angles to ensure that purported outside knowledge of this fact/ facts linked to this engagement did not come to light before the elections.

The moment they realised there could be a threat to their operations, this mob pressure was put into action.

The Maltese citizenry would not even know how many Malta passports would have been passed under the counter and to whom.

Have we already come to that stage now where people are afraid of upsetting ‘Joseph’?

Another thing that is greatly worrying me – what is this with MPs not attending Parliament? I know the law will go through anyway because of the 9-seat majority – useless thinking that there are PL MPs with balls who will vote against.

If this is so, then the PN MPs need not attend parliament when laws that do not require two-thirds of the votes are presented. I think the 162,000 who voted the PN have a right to know what is going on in Parliament.
