This is a sordid and squalid affair but please let’s cut the hypocrisy.

The EU removed all levies on goods made in China and established free trade with a country where child labour, indentured labour and slavery were and still are the norm.

This has led to China overtaking the USA as the largest economic power in the world.

The result on Europe’s small businesses and workers has been devastating.

The EU is fighting Chinese cheap labour by importing millions of immigrants into Europe which in turn is leading to incredible tensions in our continent. This is globalisation gone mad.

But then in the height of the removal of levies debate Lino Spiteri then argued the case that the consumer should decide. Need I say more?

[Daphne – That’s not what he argued when he was Labour Minister of Finance, though, and Malta was the Third-World protectionist economy par excellence.]

Mentioning meritocracy, a certain Ivan Falzon has just been appointed Mater Dei Hospital CEO. Times of Malta reported it with this headline “Ivan Falzon appointed Mater Dei CEO” as if we know who Ivan Falzon is.

I checked his publicly available Linked In profile today to see from which highly acclaimed managerial university he has graduated. Linked In shows he has attended two schools, the Qala Primary and the Victoria Upper Secondary, which means he must have failed his Junior Lyceum exams at Year 6 and decided never to sit for another exam again.

In reply to Pajjiz tal-Genn. But plastic boots are worth every cent when you have to waddle through this pile of steaming horse manure of the Labour Party trying to absolve themselves in this Chinese slaves affair.

In reply to thealley. I suggest you read the rest of the comments which confirm people's suspicions on certain manufacturing costings in Malta.

In reply to Ta'Sapienza. Bought off, presumably, with a designer suit made by Chinese slaves.

His last days.

His last interview. ‘In Italia sono diventati tutti borghesi’.

One gay man who would have found Muscat’s movement sickening.

I always wondered how Bortex manages to price its suits as it does. The prices are too good to be true.

If it’s too good to be true, it probably is NOT.

The price of a suit is cheaper than a pair of plastic boots.
