Regarding the Armier squatters PM told Ghandi Xi Nghid presenter Andrew Azzopardi on Radju Malta, as reported on Azzopardi’s site:

‘ “The decision will be whether to remove everything or regularise everything… I cannot renege on any legal agreement signed by Lawrence Gonzi,” Muscat said.’

Is there any truth to what is stated here that Muscat’s hands are tied because of an agreement signed by Dr. Gonzi giving rights to the Armier squatters? The statement seems a bit odd because if it were true I would have expected endless political mileage to me made from it by Muscat, but I wondered if anyone knew what it was all about.

The Sunday Times of Malta can also confirm that Mr Mifsud had won a number of tenders for garbage collection in Ħamrun when Dr Busuttil served as mayor of the locality.

And then they have the brass neck to speak about corruption.

”With reference to Dr (Luciano) Busuttil’s case, the Prime Minister said he would leave it to the commission to carry out its investigation. ”I will not enter into the merits of the case… Dr Busuttil has said he was not advising the winning bidder at the time,” he said.” TOM

If Luciano Busuttil has lied to the PM, will the PM do something about it? He is seemingly passing the buck to the courts already, making it seem as if awarding the tender is the only thing which needs to be decided here? What about if an MP lies to his PM bringing the government into disrepute?

Jum wara jum, konferma ta’ Gvern giddieb iffurmat minn aktar u aktar giddibin. Il-gideb jinfirex bhal ghanqbuta u aktar ma jghaddu l-jiem, din l-ghanqbuta aktar timtela’ bit-trab tal-korruzzjoni u tohrog aktar fil-berah.

I suggest a magisterial inquiry should be set up immediately comprising three retired judges chosen by our intrepid leader and under the chairmanship of another appointed by the Leader of the Opposition – preferably deceased.
