In reply to H.P. Baxxter. You'll have to refresh my memory there. I forget my comments as soon as I make them. Who was I referring to?

In reply to Joe Fenech.

I think that you are the one mucking up. In the same site that you mention (the second one) it is very clear that this is not a citizenship programme but a residency programme – very different.

Once one is a resident for a specified number of years, then one can apply for a passport.

This is actually the same as what many countries have (including malta, prior to this citizenship crap) – residency can lead you to citizenship.

Is is so difficult for labour voting individuals to comprehend such simple concepts?

The Irish are mucking around although what they’ve done is slightly more diplomatic than the Maltese government:

I so admire the diplomatic version of “Begorra! Sir! You are lying through your teeth” but most LP diehards cannot be expected to understand the diplomatic language

Thank you, Baxxter.

I believe it may have been.

The PL government should be ashamed for deliberately misleading the people about the issue – absolutely immoral. At most, they are a bunch of amateurs who know they got the majority by promising the earth (and beyond) to voters who couldn’t really see through it all.

Another bit of misinformation.

Head of the International Relations Department doing his bit for Joseph… and against Malta?

Another one to add to the list?

Really disgraceful to be cheating the people, the University, the country and the Irish in this way.

There’s really no excuse for this sensitive deception.
