					<description><![CDATA[This &quot;whistle-blower&quot; hasn&#039;t blown the whistle out of sheer spite. 

He&#039;s done so for financial gain and for no other reason.  Remember, he&#039;s no Mother Theresa. He&#039;s a crook through and through.

I, for one, believe that sooner or later Cauchi will be more than amply remunerated in a covert manner by our runaway government for all the works carried out under the PN administration, and then some.

The remuneration will be done covertly because for a whistle-blower to be protected under the law s/he cannot spill the beans for personal gain.(http://opm.gov.mt/en/whistleblower/Pages/Questions-and-Answers.aspx)]]></description>

That is an email from somebody requesting an appointment, and getting it.

It is not an email documenting what was said at the meeting.

I have a long list of emails and text messages from people asking to speak to me. I email and text back accordingly.

If they then go off and tell others &#039;Jien ghidt lil Daphne, ta&#039; and then produce an email confirming a meeting, are you going to take that as confirmation that they told me what they said they told me?

I get around 50 emails A DAY from people wanting to tell me things. And I&#039;m not a politician, let alone a party leader.

Politicians are deluged. Party leaders get hundreds a day.

					<description><![CDATA[Owen Bonnici has said that Simon Busuttil is trying to intimidate the whistleblower, by presenting a judicial protest and reserving further action according to law.

Does he really expect everyone to take all the horses### without even defending his name and the allegations being made in his regard? ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I must admit that I know next to nothing about legal matters except that the law is an ass.

However, I was always under the impression that a whistleblower is somebody who is prepared to stick his neck out to point his finger at irregularities and bring them to light.

I never thought that he could be someone who was up to his eyebrows in fraud, irregularities and sleaze for twenty-odd years and a self-confessed criminal to boot.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The media should really stop calling these kinds of people &#039;whistleblowers&#039;. 

Edward Snowden is a whistleblower. Bradley Manning is a whistleblower.

This guy is a corrupt little bitch whose deal went wrong. ]]></description>
