Comments on: This is completely unacceptable. Demarco should step down or resign the brief.

That is bizarre and completely out of touch. You’ve been reading too many alt-right web sites and watching too much Fox, which is basically One News.

You clearly have no knowledge of US politics other than that coming from the far right, now in control of a substantial part of the GOP.

With a couple of policy exceptions, even the PN is further left than Obama and the Democrats.

And that is why, if anything, the Web has the capability to reduce political organisations to zero, because many people rely only on one group of news sources.

In reply to Quo vadis Malta?. That's very normal in such applications.

Bollocks. There was so much violence right up to 1989. They even shot at PM Fenech Adami as he left a church wedding.

In reply to Daphne Caruana Galizia.

However, I think that Toni Bezzina’s case is very similar to Victor Scerri’s some years ago. In both cases there really was a building on the land already, unlike the villa of Bertu Pace’s daughter.

Also, I believe Ian Borg’s case is much worse and also a case of great deceit and crime.

No need for an apology. He has to just clear his desk and go. ASAP

You obviously did not see the application which was titled by Perit Bezzina as “Rehabilitation and restoration of existing almond grove and World War II living quarters and observation room. Proposed pool and access.”

Suffice to say this included: at least a 4 car garage with lift, 3 double bedrooms (2 ensuite) a study and a large open plan living/dining/kitchen. At roof level proposal included photovoltaics and solar water heaters. This development was proposed within ODZ when the PN document called for the protection of ODZ.

Do you really believe that such a proposal is truly rehabilitation of WW2 living quarters and protects the ODZ?

What balance is it, when the individual allows the other party to gain advantage and put spokes in the wheels internally to the governing party? That isn’t balance that is stupidity, especially when one is aware what they are up to. When it is for personal gain.
