Kenneth Desira used a Swastika as his profile picture last January 1st. Great way to start the new year.

Sina Spiteri doesn&#039;t say what she does for a living. She probably doesn&#039;t pay much tax or contribute to the national insurance fund, so she&#039;s a fine one to talk about social benefits.

Do this miserable lot even know that the dubsistence allowance paid to migrants is financed by other people&#039;s taxes? The payments are covered by EU funds and Sina Spiteri certainly is no contributor there.]]></description>

You think too highly of human nature to say that no one would kill an immigrant. Many would, and would relish the experience. 

Why do you imagine so many voted for Norman Lowell, a fascist racist who wants to shoot immigrants at sea, starve &#039;inferior races&#039;, and lynch any journalist who criticises him and his recklessly irresponsible, uninformed lunatic holocaust-denying, Jew-hating ideology?]]></description>

Deborah Frendo is an animal obsessive. Immigrants can drown, especially if they&#039;re black, but don&#039;t you dare kill an animal by slitting its throat.

I disagree with your interpretation. 

Deborah Frendo meant exactly what she said: death by drowning is easier than death by halal slaughter. That the former involved people and the latter involves animals is relevant. She ranks animal lives above the lives of black migrants.

The dead were a) immigrants and b) black. To her it follows  that they were Muslim and therefore guilty - in her view - of endorsing halal slaughter.

Ending halal slaughter was Arlette Baldacchino&#039;s primary electoral pitch. It&#039;s right there on her online campaign meme. Not uncoincidentally, Baldacchino sold herself as a woman &quot;with a son and many pets whom she loves dearly.&quot; 

When a racist electoral candidate anthropomorphises her pets and ranks her own son alongside them, what hope is there that other animal obsessives with Hitlerian priorities will talk any sense?]]></description>
