Comments on: “When Dalli returned to Malta, the government sacked the chief of police and the new police chief said he had no case against Dalli.” – European Commission investigator Giovanni Kessler, in an interview four weeks ago

In reply to Bubu.

From where I’m standing, I can clearly see that Malta’s credibility had been hacked off and is just hanging on by the last shred of skin.

Lest anyone accuse me of being negative, let me just add that if the right five people recognised the situation for what it is and got fed up and disgusted enough to find in themselves the courage do the unthinkable thing that one person did in 1998, our credibility could possibly be reattached in months and then slowly start to heal.

An already unlikely thing is five times as unlikely to happen. It’s the slimmest of chances.

But it is possible.

Hope springs eternal.

In reply to Rumplestiltskin. The most unbelievable part of it all is the fact that the appointments come from a quarter that preached, advocated, advised, wanted, applauded and lauded the CULTURE OF RESIGNATIONS.

John Dalli wants the politicians to keep away from Mater Dei Hospital. How is it that no journalist has asked John Dalli if he has the same advice to the present government when it comes to police investigations.

The present Police Commissioner is reminding me more and more of Ex-Police Commissioner, John Cachia and Sandie Shaw’s song – puppet on a string.

Did you know that Dalli’s report was also about water conservation.

I love the crystal clear logic and thinking of Giovanni Kessler.

Contrast that with the confused thinking of his detractors in the Maltese media. I will be kind and avoid mentioning names.

In serious, civilised countries when a politician’s or a country’s representative’s integrity becomes doubtful he/she is set aside, even if there is only ‘circumstantial’ evidence of wrongdoing. Here we appoint them consultants to government.

In reply to Macduff. I think it must be John Dalli himself who should publish it. The government keeps distancing itself from the report, saying that the views expressed in it are those of John Dalli.

John Dalli has not commented further on his case. He seems to have a soother between his teeth.

He has also in the meantime focused and concentrated on the Mater Dei Hospital. Is he still referring to the established institutions as Giovanni Kessler did?

Has he got a CLEAN TICKET from the European institutions he said he would revert to in his quest for justice? Why did Kessler get his clean ticket so long before Dalli did?

“We do not allow ourselves to be influenced politically. Imagine what would happen if the investigation changed when the politicians or the political situation does. It would be the end of justice”

And now in Labour Malta, the ‘end’ is nigh. We cannot rely on justice being delivered.
