I believe that such explosions use up all the oxygen in the area.

Has the Police Commissioner Peter Paul Zammit called a press conference about this MASSIVE crime as yet?  Maybe he can bring along the three new Deputy Commissioners and the seven new Assistant Commissioners.  

Zammit had promised a media friendly police force.  

Maybe some journalist should stick a microphone under his nose and ask him what action he is planning to take.  Making sure of course that Zammit does not turn the microphone away like he did with one of the journalists of The Times.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The poor things made a mistake. 

Kurt&#039;s latest effort, he&#039;s become so recognisable. 

&#039;......Dr Busuttil and his party spokesmen are trying to evade the responsibility they should carry on the scandal, which had occurred when Dr Busuttil and his colleagues were members of the Nationalist government, it added.

The people cannot understand how the PN seems more focussed on knowing who the consumers are who made a mistake in this case, than on finding the brains of this all, which led Enemalta to lose some €30 million a year, the PL said.

It is amazing that former minister Tonio Fenech is saying he did not know about this scandal when the auditor general’s report says plainly that it could be tampering, as in fact it turned out to be....&#039;


Mela, Dr.Busutil wasn&#039;t part of the PN government, yes, I demand to know who&#039;s jointly responsible for this racket, and no, it could have been individuals doing it separately, not this organised affair. The problem remains how information inside Enemalta was manipulated at middle management level. 

But maybe the minister&#039;s appearance this morning accompanied by Owen Bonnici could be significant. 
More questions than answers there. 

If Labour carry on implying these criminals should be protected, and not because they came forward out of their own free will, but because they&#039;re being offered a way out of certain proof of wrongdoing, (some whistleblowers), the rest of the country will be utterly alienated. 

In that case, I demand my meter to be tampered as well. Tanto c&#039;e Labour.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I presume that the PM knows who these 1,000 corrupt persons are. I also presume that he knows their political allegiances. It is not a surprise then that he granted them an amnesty and promise of anonymity. In all probability many, if not all of them, voted PL in the last election and in all probability many of them were &quot;beneficiaries&quot; of the Labour Party&#039;s electoral campaign. Otherwise, why the granting of an amnesty-cum-anonymity?]]></description>

Let&#039;s name and shame. 

What Muscat&#039;s saying is that hotels, restaurants and business concerns which paid their bills facing unfair competition from these criminals could have done the same. 

As for keeping the names confidential, good to know this place is the quintessence of hypocrisy.]]></description>

Every Swiss over 21 and fit to bear a weapon has an army stock assault rifle and is obliged to raise, even if remotely, a cow. 

As for the pilot, why didn&#039;t he just leg it to some embassy after landing, leaving the plane in Fiumicino?]]></description>
