He has an axe to grind.

Michael Seychell
You are still living in the past.
The 15,000 euro fine was removed, but you keep repeating that lie.

Lorna Mizzi
That's what the unions should because the people are fed up with this daylight highway robbery to fill Gonezipn's empty coffer.

J.Pace
Yes, they did the right thing to stop Gonezipn continuing in his desperate attempts to pick every cent from our pockets. If you are happy to pay more than you should I will gladly send you my bills.

I once believed that too back in the 80s. Unfortunately things have changed and believe me I have seen nationalists suffer as well under a nationalist government for expressing their opinion. Obviously, it`s done differently, Nationalists tactics are more sublime. The suffering is mental but it still hurts. It will never be done publicly as this would reflect badly on the party but it is still done.

How true it is that the major parties are two sides of the same coin and people will always be people.

Have you read Animal farm by George Orwell? I suggest you do.

I am pleased for Vince Farrugia and his Association for having succeeded to take the energy issue for their members before the EU on so short a time. I want to show my admiration for Simon Busuttil a PN MEP and yet he is the one who moved this petition.

Imagine a similar situation under a Labour government where a Socialist MEP moves a petition against his own party. I am sure this would not only mean the hefty penalty of 15,000 Euro he would have to pay, but also his immediate expulsion from the Labour (Democratic )Party, apart from the fact that he will have to face the anger of the party roots.

One way or another the Government will ultimately have to retract the miscalculated W & E bills and issue new ones. And if the EP is not the solution, than the unions should call the people to the streets to protest.

Nice Job, keep on going with your war, against the government and companies that are employing 100s of people, also in these days . Do you heard about ST 400 - 450 people jobs redundant ? Are you going to provide these people a job, if more than these will be fired ?? I am like all maltese paying high W&E rates, but for the moment I still have a job and maybe I will help some families of ST. Go to EU parlament and make the goverment pay panalties for what he is tring to do, saving jobs. Your shops are not doing the profit they used to do the other year? With people loosing jobs, they will do less for sure !
