All the land is there to sell and buy and to build on.

Farmers do not financially support the Labour Party, any party for that matter, and they cannot give handbacks like foreign millionaires and their middlemen do.

So they are useless now that we have taken the road to economic dependence on passport scams, land grabs and sleeping with dictators.

Iċ-ċwieċ li tbellgħalhom ir-ross bil-labra malajr jgħidulek li dik montatura kollha kemm hi, maħduma min-Nazzjonalisti jew minn min għandu nteress jagħmel ħsara lill-gvern (sakemm dan ikun wieħed Lejburista).

Muscat is no exception.
