Slightly more eloquent than ‘Barra’.
But the same meaning nonetheless.

In reply to L.Gatt. Some people in Malta do act as though they are living 400 years ago.

Yesterday the Prime Minister condemned himself by his statements in which he toyed with the public. He specifically said that he is basing his decision on public sentiment.

Who cares about the national interest and the fact that Malta’s reputation has been severely tarnished as a result of this scandal? He doesn’t care. If he sees bad polls than he will act. He has no moral compass.

In reply to av. How can you still have faith in their goodwill? They haven't any.

Human nature remains the same, no matter the country or the era.

Let’s just have faith in the good will and sense of all those who promised to serve their country to the best of their ability.
