Dalli points finger at EU Malta office

Why do some - very intelligent people - have to insist in not taking a loss gracefully!!! I would have believed that Dr. Dalli, having lost his race for the leadership, would have backdowned gracefully and got on with his life and political career. I personally do not believe that he was exiled!! I think that the PM just appointed him to his job because he sincerely thought that his knowledge, good, sharp mind, and loyalty to Malta and the Maltese would have made him throw all his energy behind his job and get on with life and work.

So now he says that he has been back-stabbed? And whoever, having been somebody ,never got back stabbed? Politics are not for ninnies! You need a broad back, stamina and a very sharp mind.

What I personally hate about all this business, is that the General Public is bombarded with allegations and counter allegations, turmoil and further turmoil - and at a time when both the Party in Government, the Opposition and the Eu need to get their heads together and work out the best results - and not make a milkshake of their collective brains.

Give us common people a break please, and just concentrate on your jobs!! If you are not capable of this - just throw in the towel! It will surely be to everybodies benefit.

Who would have us believe that he who feigns to be unaware of these goins-on within gonzipn is in actual fact unoblivious of all these dirty manouverings.
I have no doubts that there are people who will resort to blows below the belt to annihilate all opposition within and without the party

It seems that John Dalli has never managed to get over the fact that he lost in the leadership race. That's bad enough; one would have thought that he would have put it behind his back by now. In a contest there are winners and losers. We all are aware of this, or at least should be. But what one finds difficult to understand is that our EU commissioner says he suspects that his emails were hacked, then he asserts that they were actually hacked, then he mentions blogs, then he says that negative information about him was passed on to Labour, then he makes reference to a concerted attack on him last February, then he says that 'he knows' who was behind these attacks and mentions the offices where he says these attacks originated but will not spell out the names in public. Does he suspect or know for a fact? If it's just a suspicion it should hardly make the headlines. Why does he resort to Labour media, surely this doesn't make him any more popular with the PN. Indeed this makes him look like he is trying to help Labour's cause which again is not bound to increase his credibility. Is he trying to make PN supporters sympathise with him? In that case using Labour media to transmit his messages is not bound to help him achieve this. It's about time JD makes up his mind as a lot of people are getting confused. Surely this is no benefit to him..

Before accusing Labour, Dr Gonzi should take a very good look at himself. Who needs the Opposition with GonziPn's people, whom Dalli pointed his finger at? Despite Gonzi's energetic attempts to keep a lid of secrecy, the chickens have come home to roost!

If you don't want the people to know what is happening,
just close your Diplomatic Mouth and shut it once and for all.
You are making us look as fools.
Decide what you want to do first, give the full picture or continue
hurting the people's feelings?
The past is not forgotten, and we can easily produce facts of
your administration during your as Minister. Remember any Supermarkets in Libya.
Relatives have been involved!
I am not insinuating anythig, but unfortunately things just not happen.

People like you, only to gain popularity are always making statements.
Yourself, Franco Debono, and J. Pullicono ORLANDO, have been taking
the the people for a ride for a long time.
Why don't you all say you are looking for you own interest in a Diplomatic way.
People are not stupid. If one does not agree with any formula , all one has to do is to ignore
it and say they are through and finish.
You are just a comedy Bunch.

So now the hacking or whatever is not coming from the PN but from the EU Office and Transport Malta.

Somebody needs to make up his mind at this stage at whom to direct the charges.

Hopefully, as Mr. Dalli is well aware, the police are free under a PN governent and will come out with a clear result of their investigation and charge or otherwise anybody who broke the law.

Simultaneously there should be consequences should the accusations will not be proved - a resignation would be very much appropriate.

Let's wait and see.

Remember this after the election the PN will split in two.

The party has been hijacked by friends of friends, who have placed their people in various government departments, people with no qualifications for certain posts!!!
Those who love the PN are preparing to try and take back the party but they will fail, since those who have hijacked the party have not only placed their people in gov. departments but also within the party. The leadership contest will be a bloody one for the PN. A clean sweep is the only solution otherwise the PN

To mention transport Malta is not a surprise. Everybody knows who is behind it. But the EU Commission representation in Malta? Where have we arrived? Isn't it supposed to represent and enhance eu relationship with Malta? Do you do that with attacking the country's commisioner?

"Sources said Mr Dalli mentioned the EU office, where representatives of the European Com­mission and European Parliament are based, and the Transport Authority without identifying the individuals he believes moun­ted a negative campaign against him last February. He claims the attacks took place through e-mails and blogs. “I have proof the attacks against me are also originating from the offices of the Transport Authority and the office of the EU in St Paul Street, Valletta,” the sources quoted Mr Dalli saying. Mr Dalli alleged the same group of people within the PN, whom he claims coordinated attacks against him after the 2004 PN leadership race, renewed their attacks in February when Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi was the sole candidate in the leadership election".

The PN 'leader' is under severe pressure and everyone with an axe to grind is getting in on the final act.
In my view the backstabbing by those in power is because they all realise by now re-election is extremely unlikely, because of the failures of this government with its focus on self preservation and the enrichment of the ruling group instead of fixing the courts etc.
