The elves are already at work justifying McGill&#039;s problems by blaming them on the mess left by Austin Gatt and GonziPN, who haven&#039;t been in government for a year now and never dealt with McGill&#039;s (which is what the point the company is talking about). Morons, the whole lot of them.]]></description>

I think people are making a big palaver over the remarks of a pissed off student who was having to wait 2 hours for a bus. And hey, she said it to Austin Gatt not to Prime Minister Gonzi or Mario Demarco.]]></description>

Interesting comment.  

There is something that&#039;s always so off-putting about these Greens.  

Sometimes they get to the point where on a new round they&#039;re making the right sounds and then one comment is enough to throw reflection on the skew of it all and send them right back to go again, in my mind.]]></description>

He&#039;s right. Simon Busuttil should have used Mintoffian Malta as his simile, not North Korea.

The Labour wits were out in force, correctly reminding him that there is no Leader of the Opposition in North Korea.

Simon Busuttil needs to FIRE ALL HIS ADVISORS. They are slow-witted and keep making him put his foot in his mouth.]]></description>
