Now they emerge saying that the problem is the structure to deviate from the real problem: mismanagement.

Perhaps we should print him a copy of Dr. Mark-Anthony Falzon’s article in today’s TOM and frame it for him as well. But, unlike many, some do realize that he did indeed have a road map, just not one to improve Malta’s standing or the lives of its people. You see, with labour, one can never believe what they say. One wonders what the switchers who did not get an iced bun are thinking, but then if they had the ability to think, we would not be in this situation would we? But wait, some of them might feel they made the right choice as they drool over the promised €25.

X’ma jitlifx il-PN!

Come Christmas, we’ll have the usual l-Istrina hamallagni-fest, and yet another record will be smashed. The nation will donate 5 million Euros, and everyone will be beaming. Qed tara, Joseph, we put aside our differences, hux veru. Qed tara, Simon, haw il-flus fl-idejn wara kollox.

Yes sure, undeclared. The black economy.

Ask Kenneth.

What he failed to mention was that he was a puppeteer, an incompetent due to lack of experience and surrounding himself with yes men and women, without a sound economic policy and having the ability to promise Heaven on earth and not deliver.

Ex President Ronald Reagan was a mediocre film star, but he had one great characteristic: he surrounded himself with quality counsellors, discussed, listened and took decisions.

Being a great politician requires a good degree of intelligence, but also requires one very important trait: accept advice from a wide range of experts and be wise and humble enough to accept constructive criticism. Unfortunately this PM does NOT have those qualities.

Also, a true politician must realise that his main responsibility is to serve his country, without bias. Again the PM is found lacking in this respect too.

Malta deserves better than this.

This editorial is disgraceful. It claims to give credit where it is due and yet it fails to mention that the Dock 1 project was a project which was mostly carried out by a PN government, using EU funds also obtained by the PN. PL simply finished off the project.

Also the editorial claims it to be a project 20 years in the making (wrong) and that the project is now complete (wrong), thanks to Joe Mizzi (wrong again).

The Dock 1 project is one of a long list of projects carried out by the PN for the Cottonera area, like for example Vittoriosa waterfront. People in the south have enjoyed the benefits of this and other projects for many years now.

There are still more projects to be carried out, mainly the Knights building and the British buildings. Regeneration of Cottonera is works in progress.

The only credit that Joe Mizzi deserves is his ability to take credit for project/s carried out by the previous PN government.

Personality spell: Joseph Muscat has been waving the amoral magic wand for years now.

First on a promise.

Now in practice.

Nothing whatsoever to do with personality, of which there is none, but with the promise of carte blanche and discriminatory favour.

Trust the Gattopardi to promote it to an in-your-face political brand.

The majority erred on the side of temptation: a calculable risk.

Now define temptation.

Spot on. In the last year at MEPA the number of useless positions created so as to promote Labourites is impressive. Suffice to say that the Planning Directorate, which has less then 100 employees has a Director, a Deputy Director, 2 assistant Directors and a number of unit and team managers; all promoted in the last year. The situation has become ridiculous with more chiefs then Indians.
