This is worse than the Mintoff/KMB dictatorships and each and every one of us must do our utmost to show our disapproval of what’s happening.

Daphne, I always admired you for the straight forward attitude you take and your courage in exposing those who should know better but persist in acting against the rules, be they moral or civic.

Many people of good will support you and wish you the best and I hope are ready to show this support palpably.

This matter is far beyond the like/hate Daphne scene and should be far from our political party leanings. This is a matter of dictatorship versus democracy.

Like Joey .
