					<description><![CDATA[It is people like you who are alien to me, not &#039;immigrants&#039;. The fact that we share a passport means nothing. We most certainly don&#039;t share a culture and values.

Bidnija has plenty of African immigrants. They work in the fields and for the contractor based up the road, and everybody accepts them as part of life.

If I had your totalitarian sentiments, I would right now be agitating to have people like you expelled from the island so that the rest of us can live in civilized peace.]]></description>

Oh, does Malta have a south? It&#039;s just 17 miles by nine.

Immigrants don&#039;t bother me as much as other Maltese people do. ]]></description>

But the difference is that most probably this Maltese person entered England legally, while these immigrants are entering illegally and dominating us.
Just have a look at what happened to the south of Malta.]]></description>

It&#039;s like a deck of cards. whichever way you cut it the Conservatives still won. The Labour Party is toast and UKIP will win a lot of their constituencies in the coming election. 

As for unelected, unaccountable, undemocratic Juncker he continues to prove he is a bad loser like most of them are in Brussels.]]></description>

We have to agree to differ on this but there is a lot of truth in some of what you say. When somebody starts to be scornful they have lost the argument. Everyone should sit back watch and listen without jumping to conclusions. Eventually the truth will be known. Negative attitudes and name calling do not achieve anything. We are all entitled to our opinion.

You and the majority of those leaving comments on your site were too young in those dark days when Maltese fought Maltese. Those who were involved know that it was six of one and half a dozen of the other. I know, I WAS THERE.

The current situation in Britain is being forced in the same direction mainly by the left wing and generation snowflake. 

It was the same when George Borg Oliver gained Malta&#039;s INDEPENDENCE. There is always the US and THEM as there was during the referendum campaign in Malta. We all know that it was not a level playing field. The PN were given more money by the EU and air time on the media. 

It is always good to debate but to throw personal insults and fighting each other is definitely not acceptable but it does happen. 

WE SHOULD ALL SEEK THAT WHICH UNITES US, NOT THAT WHICH DIVIDES US. After all, no matter what happens the rich will always get richer and the poor always get poorer. At the end of the day its the working and middle classes who build nations.]]></description>
