Yes, I’m sure. Definitely his choice and his influence. The Callejas were his clients.

In reply to chico. And the failure in Malta is holding that thinking up as culture.

In reply to Les Bonbons. First in line, it's certainly not in the power station group's interest for them to resign. That would define "the rock."

By Guido Demarco, who was the minister responsible.

In reply to C Falzon. I think you may have just hit the nail on the head.

That’s the sad thing. If the Independent polls are anything to go by, its hardly a trashing.

Not even half the respondents. That’s how bad the situation in Malta is.

Before we all rush to compare the Spanish minister with our very own Konrupt, does anybody know whether the Spaniard’s family is international?

Let him enjoy that moment on Monday because it will most likely be his last political “victory”.

At this point I think Joseph Muscat has weighed out his options.

Oh but Muscat is probably stuck between a rock and a hard place. He is obviously in no position to fire his minister and chief of staff, or force them to resign, at least not at the moment. And any action he takes from now on will be far too little far too late.
