latest comment from C Xerri, 07/12/2019 20:34: Probably they go back to the suggestion made before the general election, that if after the two thirds majority is reached after the second proposed person, then the simple majority clause will be used to elect the President, the Chief Judge, etc etc.. Which means that finally we are left in the same position that we are today.

The way Mount Carmel has been run, the old people's home, Mater Dei, Keran Grech etc. All run on good governance and contracts given by tender and not to friends of friends. I think this is why those upfront to his support see!

latest comment from anton, 07/12/2019 18:27: He had it all, charm elegance, intelligence, and young enough to lead with punch. I do not come from the labour field, but I thought very highly of him. Unfortunately those around him, in their greed for money, ruined for us the rest of the Maltese nation, a very special person, who could have taken this nation to new heights.
