I couldn’t agree with this more and would like to add that this has been the trouble in Malta for a very long time. These people have been reluctant to voice their opinion because they are afraid to rock the boat, through misguided political correctness or simple fear of repercussions.

It is such a relief that this remarkable man calls a spade a spade and does not resort to ambiguous hints to try to get a message through to those who need to understand it most.

He leaves no space for misinterpritation and is really our guiding light. We really need the voices of truth, reason and logic in this cacophony of sophistry, equivocations and loud, banal, rude argumentation foisted on us by the media.

Amen.

Well, they voted them in, let them now benefit.

I have my car, so frankly speaking I could not give two hoots. Isn’t that what Muscat and co are thinking?

H.P. But that is the same in every country; it’s called diplomacy. I don’t see any different in Malta than any other other country, except in Malta, it is more blatant.

His appointment as the Auxiliary Bishop of our country must definitely be considered as a serious threat for those who are fondly in love of behaving in a manner that excludes the truth of the gospel from their conclusions about how man should live if one if following the gospel.

People afraid of truth prefer the silence of intelligent and truthful persons. Arrogant critics of people of great worth seek to mock them. Fools remain fools, but intelligent and spiritual people like Bishop Scicluna remain the lamp on the mountain in this valley of ignorance run by PL and all those who support them.

I encourage Bishop Scicluna to continue being a voice in our desert. God will surely assist him in teaching and enlightening us about God’s word and truth.

Yes indeed. He’s just like the Pope. He chides you all so lightly in public but then comes over all chummy in private.

Just wait for the annual New Year’s greetings to the Archbishop. Everyone’ll be be wreathed in smiles, old scores forgotten, all moral rectitude suspended for festivities. That’s the trouble with this goddamn country. Everyone is so damn convivial.

Muscat isn’t reluctant to take difficult decisions. He just doesn’t think it is his job to do so.

He was elected to play kings and queens, so he thinks.

Instead of ensuring a future for the operator, who it has to be said, took all financial risks onto themselves, this government prefers lumping the taxpayer with ‘a subtantial fraction of the losses incurred’.

And don’t give me Transport Malta is an autonomous authority.

Arriva as the operator was, it has to be repeated, working to a contract but who everyone blamed for everything under the sun including responsibilities beyond contract terms and conditions.

It remains to be seen how much of the ca. 50 million Euros accumulated losses we’ll be made to make up for, and how exactly Labour intends to guarantee Paramount workable conditions.

It will be either a major increase in subsidies, reducing the service to a formality, or, they’ll have to remove half, yes 50%, of the country’s cars from its roads to leave a lane available.

Knowing Labour, they won’t allow an price increase. Mizzi’s being extremely secretive about that other plan, ‘traffic management’, I suspect tolls extended to Marsa, Tal-Qroqq and Mriehel, Boris style.

The worst solution possible, an excuse for ‘parking’, and fragmentation of routes, possibly to pave the way for ‘regional’ contracts.

We do not have a capillary underground network, Johnson did. Efficiency in transport and mobility depends primarily on independence and priority of the service,

What’s disgusting is how Labour’s secrecy has become established protocol. They’re intend to literally pass a monopoly, ok make it a cartel, without any details under scrutiny.

I can’t imagine what they’re planning for Enemalta. The PN needs to induce the electorate’s curiosity how this government can ever be viable.

Great. First they make it difficult for them to operate, then they get into power and make it impossible. Now they’ll give it to their friend Paramount Garage. And we’ll have paid for it all. AGAIN.

Just great. And Paramount Garage, of all people, is going to fix it. Kumpanija tal-privates tax-xalata tal-festi tar-rahal. Last word says it all really. That’s in whose hands we are.
