					<description><![CDATA[If it were just a question of migration vs work location, why bother learning another language at all eh, Kev? 

As though the intention is primarily that when languages are being taught at school level.

When it does come to geopolitics, do have a look at how the UN functions in other countries it is operating in, in this respect.

Being such an expert yourself, I&#039;d surmise you&#039;ve been there done that?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Your definition of &#039;offensive&#039; is not mine. I delete almost all rabble-rousing, ignorant, Far Right comments, for instance, as there are other places for that pollution and I don&#039;t want it here.

I also delete comments which are &#039;tit for tat&#039; retorts as discussion threads are not personal conversations, and if you want to have a personal argument with somebody, you can take it elsewhere.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[If this blog ruins your day, why do you read it?  

As for not being able to speak French after 15 years in Brussels, I suppose it just proves to everyone that Europe is really not a place for people like you, and by that I mean narrow-minded, too arrogant to consider speaking anything but their own language, and self-centred. 

Now I can see why you work for the main idiot who engineered Brexit.]]></description>

I have no idea what you are talking about, I do not read or write Maltese but I have visited Malta several times and found that most Maltese speak English.

My main disappointment is the way many of you treat your historical heritage and countryside which is in short supply. Most of it is used as a dumping ground. That certainly does not reflect well on Maltese society.]]></description>
