A meme  should be created and published &#039;massively&#039; on social media.

Sale of your EU citizenship at 650euros +, 

“I think it’s completely crazy, I don’t even understand how it can come into the mind of somebody,” said Guy Verhofstadt, leader of the Liberal ALDE group in the Parliament.

					<description><![CDATA[Under Mintoff&#039;s tenure, Malta became an isolated anti-democratic state, cohorting with the likes of other Communist countries, including North Korea.  

Thirty years later, barely ten months in government, and Muscat has totally blown Malta&#039;s hard earned reputation in the European Union.  

Unbelievable; just like the Trojan horse, the Trojan people believed it was the end of an era and new peaceful beginnings.  The Labour Party is still anti-European just as before.  Malta just swallowed big time Labour&#039;s marketing propaganda last elections.

As the quote goes, history repeats itself.]]></description>
