					<description><![CDATA[The fact that the trails between Joseph Muscat and Shiv Nair, and from Shiv Nair backwards have failed to attract the interest of the rest of the media - with the exception of Daphne and the NP press - should also be stirring the general public to ask the question whether that media, specifically The Times of Malta within the Labour/ state bodies, has directly linked interests.

To think that Shiv Nair has now magically completely disappeared belies great naivety.

In Malta there is one zoom in on this China issue, but taking stock of all the international developments and statements especially in the past couple of months, one should reach a conclusion that these local developments are not happening in international isolation.

To be able to do this in the West, backers of an indisputed public calibre need to have been brought on board. These invisible but omnipresent arms of power have flexed their collective muscle: Speech is silver, silence is golden.

Newspeak on a global level. Creaseless.]]></description>

They first knowingly invent the lies that they proceed to uphold as truths. A sinuous logic. Their public position at any one time is necessary to their perception of defence.  

Without it all the sham of credibility would dissolve to the state of nothingness. 

This sort of person escapes justice time and time again. 

A career built on lies.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[And the questions after that:

Isn&#039;t anyone who claims in a public place to be an EU Commissioner when in fact he is not - and actually was one but resigned or was fired - committing a fraud and a serious breach of code of conduct of EU Commissioners, and bringing the EU Commission in disrepute?

And shouldn&#039;t the media be asking the prime minister:

1. What he thinks about the claim made by his consultant that the consultant is an EU Commissioner?

2. After the failed due diligence on consultant Shiv Nair - where the PM&#039;s due diligence failed to pick the fact that Shiv Nair was a permanently debarred individual by the World Bank - did the PM&#039;s due diligence on consultant John Dalli not reveal that Mr. Dalli was still an EU Commissioner and therefore couldn&#039;t act as consultant of the PM?]]></description>

Dalli sought clearance from the European Commission for doing voluntary at Mater Dei because he feels he is still Commissioner but did not seek clearance to undertake voluntary work in the Bahamas when he actually was a Commissioner.]]></description>
