Can the GWU tell us what she is protesting about?
As far as everyone knows Malta has fared well during the recession no thanks to him. Anyhow it nice to be in Brussels for a few days. A short holiday never does any harm.

U zgur li dritt taghna li nipprotestaw kontra min ikun irid inaqqrilna l-beneficcji taghna. Saqsi lil kulmin ipprova jaghmel hekk taht ir-regim socjalista! Teachers, tobba, tal-banek, fitters afloat, tal-garaxx tal-Marsa, periti skirivani....KULHADD Saqsihom Sur Abela.
Is-Sur Spiteri ghamilli hafna mistosijiet: Taf li....Twegiba Le ma nafx. Naf biss li haw 7 vetturi ghal kull 10 min-nies, naf li haw djar qishom vilel mghammrin b'kull lussu li jezisti, naf li t-trabi jilaghbu bil-mobajl flok cekcieka, naf li kulhadd isiefer vaganza mhux ghal xi bicca Mars, naf li l-postu\ijiet tad-divertiment kollha full up, naf li jingabru l-miljuni fis-sena daqqa ghal haga u daqqa ghal ohra......Inti tafu dan kollu Sur Spiteri?i

Skond l-ahbarijiet ta' dal-ghodu madwar l-Ewropa kollha l-haddiema nizlu jipprotestaw fil-pjazez. Mhux ghax iridu xi beneficcji godda, imma biex ma jitilfux dawk li ga ghandhom. U Malta kulhadd jeqred ghal izjed! U kulhadd jixxala u jitlahlah. U jiekol, jixrob u jpejjep. U jipprova jaghmel xi naqra dieta. Mintoff nehhihulna x-xaham kien! Dak veru kien salvatur...saqsu lil Fredu u lil Debono Grech!

Sur GiovDeMartino, mela ma tafx kemm haddiema Maltin tilfu xogholhom minhabba l-haddiema barranin li gew u minhabba l-klandestini li l-gvern tieghek qed izomm f'Malta? Mela ma tafx kemm haddiema qed jithallsu l-paga minima u hemm min kif intqal minn kelliema ohra li jkollu jmur jaghti €20 lura halli min ihaddmu jidher li qed jaghtih il-paga minima? Mela ma tafx kemm haddiema qed jithaddmu iktar minn 40 siegha u jew ma jithallsux jew jithallsu bl-istess rata?
Mela ma tafx kemm haddiema qed jithaddmu part-time ma numru ta' kumpaniji differenti tal-istess sidien u jahdmu 60 siegha jew iktar u ma jehdux dak li hu dovut lilhom bil-ligi?
Mela ma tafx kemm haddiema qed ikollhom jidhru taparsi self-employed biex min ihaddimhom la jhallsilhom parti mil-bolla u lanqas jaghtihom leave u drittijiet ohra skond il-ligi?
Jaqaw m'intix tghix f'Malta Sur GiovDeMartino
