Always keep in mind that in the 80 s the oppostion used to go abroad also - to tell the other countries not to co operate with us . This is the political maturity and this is the good will of this new leader .

well done joseph and we can say that you are working in the countries interest even if it is being said from a non labourite .

Well done Joseph for the work you are doing for Malta and the Maltese in Libya - especially regarding oil prices and illegal immigration.

Libya is cooperating with the MLP leader much more than with the Nat officials. They are taking him more seriously as they realise that he is the real leader of the Maltese.

Perhaps Gonzipn should call it a day since he cannot keep the pre-electoral promises and intends to turn them into a poor lot. Resignation would make gonzipn avoid all the anger the Maltese are building up against his government.

So how about it, Lawrence?
