The Sunday Times has been on the fore  front in helping these people getting where they are. It is useless crying over split milk now. Like everyone else it has been warned but persisted in its task to attack mercilessly the previous Administration. So it should shut up and beat her chest say Mea Culpa for 3 times.]]></description>

Scandals? Take a look at the above graph and read carefully what it says beneath Silvio Schembri&#039;s photograph. Now there&#039;s a scandal for you.

So the PN government left him in his post despite the fact he did not not do any work? The scandals under the former government never cease.

					<description><![CDATA[For Joseph Muscat, Gonzi PN`s mini cabinet getting €500 a week was shameful. 

This was at the time when Gonzi PN put us in the international press in the brightest of spotlights and gained us a glorious reputation the United States felt should personally come and express gratitude. 

Let alone the sound economy. 

Now backbenchers getting an average of €1600 a month is no big deal for their doing nothing worth not even the eight o clock news. Eh il Labour hej hej hej kemm hu hali.]]></description>
