					<description><![CDATA[It is reasonable to conclude that his statement remains valid and not only because of the 4-year agreement Muscat signed with China in 2010. 

The power station is already far past its due date. Muscat has already dismissed suggestions that he&#039;d said he&#039;d resign if it is not delivered on time. 

The power station is not the end objective here. Malta as a tool is.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As a citizen paying tax, I demand to see the invoice, the receipt and the cheque stub. 

Rooms were going at 500 to 1,000 euros a night for five star hotels in Gozo over the Santa Maria weekend. 

If they can afford that kind of money we need to ask HOW they can afford it. If they cannot afford it we need to ask whether they will be paying in kind and what form the payment will take. 

If a journalist sleeps in a hotel and the management knows that she is writing about the hotel they will do everything in their power to influence the write-up. 

Imagine what they would do to influence a prime minister and a tourism minister.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Just as the timing of the €450 million dosed shocker was timed and staged, I would expect that strategically they will have needed to be out in full force just to counter the impact of the shock.

What good is being seen though?

It&#039;s not as though Joseph Muscat is talking about the Electrogas contract to the nation directly.

You&#039;re right.

How staged it all is.

It&#039;s more a &quot;X&#039;jimpurtani&quot; reaction:  &quot;Mhux JIENA qieghed nigverna.&quot;

Ma kienx liebes l-ahdar ukoll, forsi? To drive the point - as they see it - home?]]></description>
