Nixtieq nistaqsi x' sar minnhom dawk in-nies li nqabdu jiehdu ritratt tal-vot taghhom waqt li kienu qed jivvutaw? Dawn zgur li ma kienux qed jiehduh biex iqeghduh fi 'frame'?

Gew mistoqsija fil-qorti ghalxiex kienu qed jigbdu ritratt tal-vot taghhom (ghalkemm kulhadd jaf x'se tkun it-twegiba)?

Tressqu xi nies il-qorti, ghax sa fejn naf jien l-anqas biss tista' tiehu mobile waqt li tkun qed tivvota, ahseb u ara tigbed ritratt tal-vot tieghek....

U mbaghad jigu jghidu li ma kienx hemm korruzzjoni....

U hallina

@ Walter Caruana.

Although I do not profess to be a mathematical genius in kindergarten I learnt that 2010 less 20 make 1990. So in Y 1990 we were under the realm of Dr Fenech Adami!

In any case peoples’ expectations are that they climb the so called social ladder to see an improvement in the way they live.

Under the ‘Par Idejn Sodi’ of Gonzi PN people from all walks of life are feeling the pinch and their heart misses a beat when they open the letter box. This is of course unless you are one of the nouveau riche. But then this club is restricted to the very few.

@ N Calleja - please be a bit original.

Meta Fenech Adami iddubita u staqsa dwar il-validita` ta’ kif isiru l-gurijiet u issuggerixxa li timbidel is-sistema ta’ kif isiru, wara li ma ghogbitux sentenza tahraq partikolari, dak ma kienx qed juri disrispett lejn id-demokrazzija sur Gonzipn? Kont tlabt ghal apoligija dakinhar inti u kien ghamilha l-apologija l-eks president hati ta’ malafama?

@j. mifsud ghandek ragun titkellem hekk ghax ma tafx x'qed jigri f'pajjizi bhal grecja, italja, spain, irlanda, u ooirtugal sabiex insemmi ftit. Filwaqt li qaghad hawn teghla ghal 15, u anki 20 fil-mija f'malta huwa 7 fil mija biss. Jekk baghtet ftit mhux b'solidarjeta ma siehbek li seghta spiċċa bla xoghol.

"The party said that the comments made by Dr Farrugia showed disrespect to the rules of democracy."

This is like saying a stone falling through the air goes against the rule of gravity. I hate to point this out, but democracy is not just showing up at the polls every 4 years to cast your vote for Tweedledum or Tweedledee. It involves speaking out against injustice. The Hon. Dr Farrugia was merely doing his job. This denunciation by the PN amounts to a campaign of intimidation, a character trait it has often tried pinning on the MLP. So don't look now, PN bigwig, but your fly's undone.

Anyway, corruption in Malta is thriving better than tapeworm in a baby's stool. Saying otherwise is insulting to the people who have had to suffer it.

Reference... The Times..Wednesday, 14th July 2010
"Employer cleared of trying to force staff to vote for PN"
By; Juan Ameen

Quote re employee`s witness... "..At that point, Mr Bartolo became angry and accused her, (the employee), of being careless by taking the document to Paceville with her. She, (the employee), added he, (Mr. Bartolo), also told her that "if the Labour Party win, you might as well not come to work on Monday..."... Unquote..

Now if that is not the Most of the Most SERIOUSLY CLEAR CUT THREAT, ANYONE could receive if, in this case, the election result becomes against Mr. Bartolo`s mostly desired, The GoziPN`s Clan, then i must say the Magistrate in question must be seeing `elephants` as being whiter than white, and i must be living in the land of the `Wizard of Oz`...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Consequently, i am more than sure that the PN, with all those lawyers etc.. around them, down deep in their gutters, knows exactly what the Magistrate in question should have said and done in this particular case, u mela demanding an apology from Dr. Anglu Farrugia and the Labour Party... !!!!!!

KEMM HSIBTUNA CWIEC.. BOLOH u IMBECILLI, Sinjuri PN.........!!!!!!

Anglu is now known for his gaffes. In fact he is considered an asset to the N.P.

The PN should ask if Dr. Gonzi is above the EU court, because he had criticised the decision regarding the placement of cruxifixes in public spaces.

With a deputy leader such as Anglu Farrugia, what more reassurances are needed that the MLP is unelectable?

I agree that the court's decision should be respected.

The point one can argue about, is, that the jurisdic system in Malta is not a progressive one. Mainly it holds a conservative mentality when dealing with certain issues, ex the neutrality, civil rights issues and when taking a stand or sentence against the administration or ceratin people in power.

Few years ago, I remember we had also a harsh critisism from the present administration in charge against MEPA's Auditor, The General Auditor and the Ombudsman. May be, even these are to condemn, or not?

@ N. Calleja
@ Walter Caruana
"...we have been thrown back at least 20 years. " If my arithmetic is correct, 20 years ago was 1990 and if my memory serves me correctly, in 1990, Malta was being administered by the same party in government today, although under a different prime minister.

You did not realise that saying that 'We have been thrown back at least 20 years' you reminded us of the Labour regime. Think wisely before you say such stupidities!!

Dr Gonzi is terribly wrong on this one. Dr Farrugia should not apologise to the people... he should RESIGN immediately. the person accused of these allegations was not done so on solid evidence, but on just rumors. what happened to the 'innocent until proven otherwise'? Shame Dr Farrugia and all those supporting him!

Shame also Dr Gonzi and the PN who allowed this to happen without intervening... till now, and only intervene to say that Dr Farrugia should apologise.

While I disassociate myself from this incident, can anyone confirm if Mepa permits which have been submitted over two years prior have been expedited days before the last General Election to gain votes from undecided voters?

U Halluna u tkomplux titfghu melh fuq il-feriti taghna l-haddiema.

Sur Gvern, you should first and foremost make a public apology to all workers for the sorry state you have brought them to!!!!!!!!!!

Addio good standard of living to most workers.

Addio good working conditions.

Addio to social housing.

Addio to good standard of living to pensioners. Many of them now dread the arrival of the day of retirement.

Addio to healthy families. ( Dear Church authorities please wake up from your long sleep).

And when all this is happening, Nero, who by the way, is still living the luxurious life, keeps playing the harp, unnoticing the burning of Rome.

Isthu jekk tafu!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jul 17th 2010, 11:58

Mr. J Brincat -------Your own statement........." we have been thrown back at least 20 years. " is a confirmation of the very low standard of living we had to endure under the labour regime.

Antoine Attard

Jul 17th 2010, 11:55

What a cheek to talk about electoral malpractices. As if we were living in another planet in 1976 and worse still in 1981 when crass gerrymandering gave power to a party who had lost the majority vote! That is cast in stone for posterity.

David Caruana

Jul 17th 2010, 11:38

Dear PN, it is only normal and healthy in a democracy to question authority - even the courts and the legal system.

Laws are man-made and the courts are made up of people - therefore no infallible.

Myself and many others do not agree with Mr Justice Joseph Zammit McKeon's ruling on Stitching - which has been given a ‘14+’ rating at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Do you really expect us to shut our mouths just because the COURTS said so?

Dream on! We will keep fighting to change outdated laws in OUR country!

J Brincat

Jul 17th 2010, 11:24

Obviously aplogies are only expected from the PL but none come from the PN.

Who had some time ago said whether the time has come for a revision of the compostion of our jurors system simply because of a court sentence which did not much please the PN?

U halluna because it is too hot and cannot switch on the AC because we cannot afford it any longer. Bye bye to our standard of living. We have been thrown back at least 20 years!

Michael Grech

Jul 17th 2010, 11:20

Of course there were electoral malpractices, everybody knows that. It's just that it's too difficult to prove beyond any reasonable doubt. And the PN should be the last one to censor comments against court decisions as it has done it so many times in the past. A magistrate in a court of law is NOT infallible and sentences often resolve on one's personal learned interpretation. Dr Farrugia's comments did not show disrespect towards the court, and if he feels strongly that justice has not been served, he should take matters further in the European courts.

Marina Cassar

what Anglu Farrugia did is shameful and I sincerely hope that Joseph Muscat condems what his deputy did...what he did is simply unacceptable
