As if Muscat gives a hoot. The important thing is that he keeps the hunters’ vote. To hell with the rest!
I know for a fact that simultaneously he’s also losing many environmentalists’ votes. It’s the elves’ job now to find out which lobby’s votes will actually count for more.
Perhaps that’s why the rumblings of blocking the referendum, because they’ve already found out li se jaqaw ghan-nejk by, once again, being on the wrong side of history.
With a nine seat majority, who gives a rat’s ass?
Jeez, not even Frankie Tabone’s 400 song birds can tweet so much.
Muscat’s terremot. Aftershock to follow.
“massive”
The migrating birds should claim that they are here to buy a Maltese passport, in which case, Joseph Muscat and Emmanel Mallia would provide them with ‘personal’ protection using members of the police force and the armed forces for the length of their stay on the Islands.
And now, Malta being held up as an example of how bad things got in the UK:
“Only Malta has more deaths of children aged under five, a major study has found…”

What Chris Packham forgot to mention or cry about when damaging Malta’s reputation:
http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2014/may/18/bird-killing-call-robin-starling-mallard-splits-conservationists
“But now it appears that the country’s 6.7m pairs of robins are no longer the feathered friend of yesteryear. A consultation by Natural England, the body that advises the government on the natural environment, has made the case for allowing people to destroy the birds’ nests and remove their eggs, amid growing concerns that they threaten health and safety.”
Read the full article and learn how blessed we are in Malta where only a few illegalities occur as opposed to the LEGALIZED CARNAGE permitted in Britian.
And yet Chris Packham saw it fit to support Birdlife Malta, lable Malta as “bird hell” and imply that we are killing “their birds”.
If this is not enough to convince anyone of the hypocrisy then perhaps knowing that 55 million birds a year killed by UK cats make no difference might put the few birds shot in Malta into perspective and uncover the reason for all the anti-hunting frenzy based on nonsnese.
