Ciccio,

The Lands file is the one that most markedly got transferred to the Office of the Prime Minister&#039;s control.

I agree with both.  The Labour Party&#039;s general state of mind was L-Ewwel Nirbhu Imbaghad Naraw - you can see that from their lack of preparation to govern - but there was also a plan to develop a power station and they had the company in place already.  That was to provide the basis on which they would ensure their victory.

Whereas I am totally convinced that no power purchase and gas supply agreements have been signed yet - contrary to what was reported in Times of Malta but confirmed by Enemalta on its website and by a close analysis of facts - Electrogas has been given access to prime industrial land at Marsaxlokk.  Even if they never build their power station, as long as they can hold on to that land, they&#039;ve done a good deal.  

Has anyone ever valued that land and informed the public about its value? It is effectively the government&#039;s contribution to the project and part of why the government would be able to obtain a lower cost per unit of electricity.]]></description>

Jien għandi f&#039;moħħi li l-power station issir, imma taf meta? Lejlet l-elezzjoni li jmiss biex lin-nies jgħidilhom li minkejja kollox avolja tard imma l-power station wasslet u jerġa&#039; qabel l-elezzjoni jraħħas b&#039;xi ftit ċenteżmi d-dawl u l-ilma biex jirbaħ il-voti u xejn aktar.  

Imma sadanittant  aħna nkomplu nitqannew bi gvern inkompetenti li wikkewlna dawk li ħasbu li se jkun hawn xi bidla ta&#039; barra minn hawn u bqajna fejn konna jekk mhux ukoll ġejna agħar.]]></description>

In the last 15 months they have not proposed ONE project, but instead have been working on the projects started by the last government.
