Malta is really lucky to have these people. They really raise our standards. The more of them we get, the better Malta will become. Let's open our borders and floodgates to as many of them as possible. The more, the merrier!

I am very intrigued how on earth we can obtain the precise names of these illegal immigrants but on the other hand we have to means at all to be able to deport them. Political correctness as usual and the UNHCR and the EU being the main culprits which interfere constantly in our home affairs. Well CMB let them so they take us for a ride.

The public has spoken will the politicians listen - I doubt it, they cant even sort out the dysfunctional courts system, or corruption, and the MEPA, ADT and VAT scandals are still liable for a repeat run.

The politicians find refuge behind the high walls of their mansions together with round the clock security - all paid for by the state. They also get private rooms at Mater Dei hospital and do not have to share the wards with the troublesome aliens. As you can see Jay, Blair the writer ( no not Tony) forsaw it all coming. Indeed, some pigs are more equal than others.

Louis Gialanze - find refuge from what? black people? Do you ever go out? Possibly never seen a politician walking in the streets, yes, while black guys are around? Well, I've seen quite a few. They didn't seem to have bodyguards and none of them looked terrified.

This is the behaviour of a person trying to get accepted into a civilised country for the betterment of his life.
Refuse his application and send him back to where he finds the use of knives and violence are acceptable

That puts paid to the fairy tale told by NGOs that illegal immigrants are teachers, psychiatrists, intellectuals and so on and that we are lucky to have them.

Regarding ' NGOs that illegal immigrants are teachers, psychiatrists, intellectuals ',
I am sure they did not mean all of them!!
I am at the centre almost everyday, and its true that quite a few are a nuisance, but believe me, the majority by far are good people, and with right opportunities and direction will be an asset to a new and far more cosmopolitan Malta.

oh my! How shallow can you get? He was drunk, his behaviour was unacceptable and he got taken to court for it, as it should be..... and he happened to be black. Last week 'white' Maltese bouncers bashed up white British tourists... so what's your point? The number of sad people infecting the internet is astounding.

Ms.Vella, how low can you get? We in Malta certainly do condemn criminality, but hearing people like you single out black people makes me wonder. We should kick all sorts of criminality.

And I am sure you had a Very Merry Christmas too!! If I may suggest a New Year's resolution, I am sure that readers already know what that might be!
Rejoice, be merry and compassionate, at least this one time a year! HAPPY HOLIDAYS LOU.
