I just want to say how shocked I was to hear the news that 300 human beings from Turkey were brought to Malta like so many sheep and placed in a quarry! 

What about normal housing regulations? What about plain simple decency? They are now going to be given the minimum wage for dangerous and heavy work that should be paid much more. Even though it is more than they get in their country they are grossly underpaid, exploited and humiliated. 

How can the government give its blessing to such blatant precarious work and inhumane living conditions that remind us of what goes on in Third World country factories. This is developers’ greed at its worst as they build their apartments and gruesome money machines with the sweat of the people that they trample and exploit, and what’s even worse is that they are being assisted to flout all decent norms and processes by the authorities.

Have we no shame?
