In reply to Francis Saliba MD. Claudette will say that she expected there to be "950+" members in attendance. That's the last count of MEPs according to Marlene Mizzi. Hallina Claudette. Mhux ahjar tkompli tomghod dak ic-chewing gum?

hi Daphne. you are of course correct. i should have made it clearer that the current continuous mayhem was never experienced during the NP years in government.

In reply to Antoine Vella. Not quite true, Cyprus have a citizenship-for-investment scheme that has been running for a couple of years. They have beefed it up this year and I suspect that the PL govt based their amended IIP on the Cypriot scheme. [Daphne - They did not. It was devised by Henley & Partners and replicated wholesale from their Antigua and Barbuda scheme.] I suspect Cyprus will have to revisit their scheme as it is also all about selling a passport, albeit with more onerous conditions attached.

In reply to simca. Simca is right, in that never before has there been such a confluence of knavery, corruption, bad government and evil, plus instant communication and social networks. The Boyd loop of cause and effect, as it were, is much tighter now.

Wow! THIS is what it’s all about. Those barbs about the crocodile tears and solidarity are just priceless.

As for Joseph Cuschieri, please will someone put him out of his misery?
