It would be great to see a political party committed to reducing the size of Malta's parliament to 45 members and saving the taxpayer a fortune.

Is anybody keeping a tally of all the promises being made by Joseph Muscat. Should be a very very busy 12 months should he, God Forbid ,be Prime Minister.
Reform of utility bills, Reform of the Law Courts,New Power Station, Reform in MEPA , Whistleblower Acts , Everything else that was in the budget he agreed with but voted against and a zillion other promises in order to win votes. Pigs fly too

The social and economical effects of irregular immigrants on Malta.

Up to now political talk has been hijacked by the energy proposal. Hope we hear more about other much more important things such as education and job creation.

Stop focusing on energy - simply carry on with Government pipeline plan backed by EU funds. Floating voter wants to know parties' vision to ensure Malta continues moving forward. The economy must be given top priority as world continues to face uncertain economic times. Immigration problem needs to be seriously addressed too with definite plans to stop dangerous infiltration of alien cultures...

I cannot understand why we need another powerstation if the BWSC power station and interconnector will be delivering adequate energy at a reasonable price. The PL proposal could only be considered as plan B if the gas pipeline does not materialize.
Dr Toni Abela found it difficult to convince otherwise. He is usually methodical in his arguments but on Bondi+ he failed to convince.

I think that if the PN had to organize a press conference to try and discredit PL's proposal and also spend 2 hrs discussing said proposal in the General Council while we the ppl are still waiting for their proposals, something is really wrong. I don't think the PN did their homework and in fact their electoral program is still not ready. This does not augur well for the PN jghid x'jghid Dr. Gonzi

If the interconnector will be operational by 2014 and have a capacity of 200MegaWatts and there is forecast that at night we can even buy units as low as 3 to 5 cents per unit, than this should definitely be the first priority together with the 150 MW BWSC converstion to gass.I fail to see the need to install new power station for 370 million euros.

The usual story before any election, PL comes up with something that is too good to be true, which it is in fact. Anyone saw Bondi+ last night? Toni Abela did not have any valid arguments what so ever, and you can also tell that he was flustered.

Not a squeak on the illegal immigration issue from both main political parties, as both can be assumed to be gutless to raise the issue with the electorate.
Alfred Falzon

High time 2 move 2 other important issues of capital importance to d people such as health, reforms in d judiciary, privatised public domains of historical importance, illegal boathouses, illegal immigration, water conservation, afforestation projects, people with special needs, continuing education...
We have been bombarded 4 d past 10 days with d same recurrent theme on energy! Too much!

The electoral campaign has so far been hijacked by the PL with the Utiliies tariffs issue.
Alex Falzon

An energy policy should be drafted and implemented between all political parties as well with the best scholars in the field.
After 4 days we heard no proposals on other issues.
Victor Vella

Whilst I believe that the PL started off with something that is going to deviate us from other important issues, I believe this will backfire under continuous bombardment that will follow.I would like to ask both parties to stop the gimmicks and talk about important issues.
