					<description><![CDATA[The fact that you are literate works to your advantage. But there is no way I am going to agree with you on this.

You cannot preserve ways of life in aspic. If you cannot cope with the social change that immigration brings, pray tell how you think you would have coped had you been born in 1906 and lived to 2003, as my grandmother did. Would the world in 2003 have been in any way recognisable to somebody teleported from 1906? Well, then. And there were two world wars to contend with, too.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Do they wear badges that say I AM AN ECONOMIC MIGRANT AND NOT A REFUGEE?

And another badge that says I AM BLACK THEREFORE I MUST OBVIOUSLY HAVE COME IN A BOAT?


The economic migrants who are here are here because they have the right to be here, wherever they came from.

Illegal migrants are deported or in a detention/concentration camp.

It is not their responsibility to pay national insurance. It is their employer&#039;s.

Instead of becoming agitated because you think they are not paying their dues, you should do the decent thing and protest at the fact that their employers don&#039;t pay THEM their dues, when they are so vulnerable, and so unaware of their rights, that they accept all the ill-treatment that is thrown at them.

Let me just tell you what I have seen: in all the two-man-one-Maltese-one-African-immigrant teams that are sent out on jobs, it&#039;s the African who does the donkey work while the Maltese orders him around.

In one case, the Maltese  behaved so abusively towards his African equal - they were both employees - shouting at him, laughing at him and ordering him to fetch and carry like a slave, that other people in the vicinity remonstrated with him.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Freedom of speech does not give you the right to express yourself on other people&#039;s media. It gives you the right to express yourself by your own means.

Set up a white supremacist blog - nobody is stopping you. But it should strike you as obvious that you are not going to find a lot of like-minded people here. Different media have different audiences and readership. 

People come to this website, in the main, because it is a refuge from views like yours, which are the dominant view on other internet comments board to the point where they have squeezed out more rational people.

Your thoughts are entirely fear-based. Some people are like that. They enjoy being worried and frightened about stuff, and create things to be frightened of even where there are none. I don&#039;t know the psychology which drives it, the anxiety.

You are even unable to see that your children will have a better future than you did. My children certainly had a better future than I did - and here&#039;s the thing. They had a better future because THEY WERE NOT CONFINED TO MALTA.

The worst, the very worst thing you can do to those children of yours is to pass on your views about Muslims, Arabs and probably gay people too. THAT is what will hinder them and give them a less good future than they could otherwise expect, because it means that they will grow up thinking that there&#039;s no better place than their village, and that everybody has to be Maltese.

					<description><![CDATA[Quite obviously not, because one of the big signifiers of narcissistic personality disorder is the inability to empathise to any meaningful extent, and the belief that one is at the centre of the universe and that one&#039;s needs are more important than those of a drowning man or of somebody who has lost everything.

And yes, deliberately creating a false persona, as distinct from a mere nick, invalidates your argument. It means that you are actively seeking to deceive.

If you carry on like this, I will simply blacklist you. This website is meant as a refuge from people like you, of whom there are all too many elsewhere on the internet.

You are not among your own kind here. Given the way you bleat on, it&#039;s a feeling with which you are clearly familiar, surrounded as you are by murderous negroes and Muslim pirates as you go about your daily life.]]></description>

What is the basis of your fear of economic migrants?

There are very many thousands of economic migrants working in Malta already, and at this stage, the economy would probably collapse without them.

The people from all over Europe and the Third Country nationals who are working in Malta are economic migrants too, you know.

Otherwise, they would be working in their home country.]]></description>
