Listening to the people, my a**e. The idea of listening to the people is to do so before you f**k up, not after.

The people, the taxpaying subset that is, have already paid for those stalls, so listening to them post facto is an exercise in politicking.

As was expected and because there never was a real plan, this government has devolved into damage control mode.

Promising anything to everyone in secret only works until one has to deliver, then it becomes impossible to fool everyone.

Unfortunately, the number of people one can manage to keep fooling depends on one’s cult tactics as well as the public’s gullibility.

Things are now becoming interesting.

Are you saying that the Nationalist government should have ditched the Renzo Piano project because of what people were saying?

That’s what you think, but they are not listening to the people, they are limiting the damage to themselves and their chances of re-election. You also ignore that meanwhile, they are wasting our money. It is easy to spend money when it is someone else’s.

Il-mira tiegħek hi li lil tal-Monti tqiegħedhom fi Triq l-Ordinanza minn Strada Rjali sa Strada Forni,allura xħett il-proposta tat-tavlozza bl-arma tal-Kavallieri u l-Monti sa taħt il-Kavallier ta’ San Ġakbu biex tilħaq l-għan ħajjen tiegħek.

Ir-Russi kienu jagħmlu bħalek meta kienu jibdew in-negozjati li l-bniedem għandu ħames idejn u wara ħafna taqtieh il-qalb kullħadd kien jagħmel kompromess magħhom li il-bniedem għandu tlett idejn.

Il-Monti għandu jitwaddab fil-foss ta’ San Ġakbu kif kien għamel darba Mintoff. Minn hemm iridu nibdew miegħek, u imbagħad forsi nċedu li inħalluh taħt il-MONTE di Pieta, minn fejn ġab ismu.
