In reply to curious. Could someone translate that Maltese into English for me, please. I tried online translation and it didn't make much sense. Thanks.

Priceless is watching everything blowing up in their faces. All their pre-election mud slinging is coming back to haunt them.

In reply to Mila. The Minister promised a soft entry, not a soft launch. Please stop misquoting the Traffic Minister.

In reply to canon.

The government said recently that the recent big increase in the number of private cars on the road is a sign that fuel prices in Malta are cheap compared to Europe.

So if Mr. Autobassis tal-Iljun is complaining about the traffic, why doesn’t the government increase the price of fuels at the pump to cut down on the use of private cars?

The truth is that:

1. The increase in the number of private cars is not evidence that fuels in Malta are cheap, but that the present government’s roadmap for public transport, if there is one, has been a failure.

2. The price of fuels in Malta is among the highest in Europe, but so far under this Labour government there is no reasonable alternative to the use of the private car.

3. The present government is a government of liars.

Seems that the guy in charge of the Autobassis tal-Iljun wants to take us for a ride.

It’s not a ‘soft launch’ what the Minister promised.

He promised a soft entry.
