I’m not a fan of conspiracy theories but I think we would be naive to think that the Nationalist Party’s official reason is the real reason one.

Here we’re not talking about an oversight that may cost a few hundred votes, but about a strategic decision that may cost thousands of votes, and possibly even the election itself.

I don’t think that those at the helm can’t see what we are all seeing. So there must be some other reason.

If there is a message to be communicated, rush and peak hours shouldn’t be wasted, carelessly, on zenning out. Ghax inkella B to Z jiehu ghalih. Ma jkunx fair. Ridiculous.

This Government isn’t fair, that’s what. A sense of perspective is primordial.

In terms of focus there is a definition of objective. Objectives need to be redefined from time to time with qualifiers becoming more precise as the situation evolves. I

If a rule is outdated – similar to what Daphne maintained re election eve postings in this age of open media, then that rule needs to be scrapped or redefined. Do you keep and wear your jeans or sweaters from the 1980s just because they were the thing to be in then?

The focus is winning those elections, not whose feelings, internally, are upset because their fragile egos can’t handle that there is a person amongst them with a recognised and acclaimed area of excellence.

1. The secret companies in Panama were set up as soon as these people came to office after the election.

2. Nexia BT which was entrusted to set this up this web were given a desk at the Office of the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister cannot claim that he did not know what they were doing.

3. The frantic efforts made to establish bank accounts to populate these companies clearly show that these monies were not coming from the salaries attached to the offices they held. In fact other sources were quoted, and we know that these were spurious.

4. These facts are enough to justify their resignation.

5. The fact that these persons were involved in signing contracts involving huge sums of money, and the contracts have been kept secret, or were reluctantly published but heavily edited, seen against the background and timing of the setting up of the secret companies, give rise to justified suspicions of corruption.

A Prime Minister and his intimate collaborators, whom he defends and demands that his parliamentary group do likewise, should not be involved in such shady dealings.

Daphne’s posting of his interviews on her blog is the cheapest and far more effective way of distributing. Save your money, start posting links on Facebook

He was merely explaining the background and his view on why the Prime Minister refused to be interviewed. He was not trying to justify it but merely explain the mindset.

As to David Thake, I agree he’s sharp, but he loses me when he goes on to create conspiracy theories around Malta’s elections.

I would have been much happier if he stuck to asking where the money for one of the most expensive election campaigns came from and how a supposedly bankrupt party paid for it.
