Hands up those of you who think that the fugitive Libyan government currently holed up in Tobruk has bothered to carry with it a copy of the Memorandums of Understanding with Manuel Mallia and Joseph Muscat?

Those pieces of paper have probably been reduced to ashes already in one of the ISIS attacks on government offices in Tripoli.

He can also file a case of breach of confidentiality clause in the Aliyev Court of Baku, in terms of the Azerbaijan law on the subject, known as The Aliyev Transparency and Confidentiality – Reasonable Excuses Act.

Konrat Mizzi had assured The Times and other news media in this video clip that Ms. Mizzi Liang would not be covering areas related to his Ministry, which at the time comprised only of energy and water conservation.

If she does, this would be cause for serious concern due to conflict of interest. Worse still, it would amount to the Minister himself appointing his own wife, indirectly through Malta Enterprise, to do work in his own Ministry.

So now we have her interfering with his Ministry – in health.

Isn’t this a serious breach of his own standards set in here?

Incidentally, in this same interview, Konrat Mizzi, visibly under extreme pressure on all fronts, had assured the gathering of journalists that the gas project was on track.

The Shame On You Minister must go. For his good only.

You have used the term “positive value”. I have not.

Precisely.

In addition, we are not in the loop about any other “gifts” by Azerbaijan to Malta. By this I mean the type where networked offers are made at say 5 degree connections.

This is Joseph Muscat’s style of payback or clearing the path.

I would be very wary about any visit to Azerbaijan, knowing how easy it would be for them to stage an accident for a local “critic” or dissenter.

We just saw the report where we are told we have mediocre medical outcomes but true to form it is treated like water off a duck’s back. That’s the best way to kill a story when you have things to hide.

We will soon be hearing propaganda articles about how good we are and since most do not read reports, the sun will be shining in no time.

Konrad Mizzi did not attend parliament today but did make it on the trip which Sai Mizzi organized for him to discuss traditional Chinese Medicine, but true to this government we are not told who else was with him. Its only our health after all.

Fine way to negotiate our health!

But then as long as the trip is being organized by the best paid trip organizer in Malta/China, the government does not need to give a hoot as to how knowledgeable the person doing the negotiating is, does it?

Was he assured of another?

When the inclination is assessed against opportunity cost, what would you say emerges as a positive value from this visit, besides knowledge of the fact that it happened?

In real terms, not in what we are meant to have explained and tabled in Parliament, transparently and matter of course?

Should we be contenting ourselves with glimpses of inclination whilst Malta slides ever backwards, or with having to discover what this Government is up to only to find – as with Shiv Nair – that it’s something that shouldn’t be happening? – as with the Passport scam – that was never fully explained and clarified? – as with the energy contracts – that were never fully published, nor the Power Station built?

This Government continually falls short of accountability standards. The tid bits hidden in foreign press releases like an idiot’s treasure trail to nothing make me very angry.

Its policy is deception.

Why should we have inclinations and indications when the Government is accountable to Parliament and the electorate?

Or should be but isn’t?
