Constitutional reform: zero steps forward…
Despite promises of constitutional reform to (hopefully) further develop our democratic structures, the PLPN cabal tinker here and there with the constitution to serve solely their own interests. As we’ve seen in the Commissioner of Standards farce, they play the tit-for-tat game and don’t explain their choices other than through some petty rhetoric. For the…

“Ir-rieda tal-poplu”?
“Ir-rieda tal-poplu” – l-użu tal-lingwa li meta tagħsar ma tfisser assolutament xejn. U mhux Abela biss, għax hemm ħemel politiċi li f’sentenza jużaw jew kienu jużaw fil-passat il-kelma “poplu” għoxrin elf darba, qisu hemm persuna waħda jisimha “Poplu”. Ċikku l-Poplu. Meta nisma’ hekk, ngħid dil-persuna retorika vojta se tgħid u ħlief slogans mhux se joħorġu…

Six ways to make EU and Maltese industry climate neutral – Ralph Cassar
Although in Malta we do not have any heavy industry, and although the country is what it is, small, we still owe it to ourselves to reduce carbon emissions by at the very least 50% – 65% would be better, but the procrastination on the part of successive governments has thwarted progress massively – of…

Is-silenzju dwar Public Private Partnerships fis-servizzi pubbliċi
Il-PPPs huma kalamita għall-korruzzjoni, huma garanzija ta’ profitti għall-privat, bit-telf finanzjarju jerfgħu l-pajjiż. Idaħħlu l-mentalita li servizzi bażiċi li jiswew il-flus huma sors ta’ profitt. Le, mhux vera li s-servizz ikun aħjar. Minn fejn taħsbu li jiġu l-profitti? Mit-tqanċiċ. Mill-qamel. U billi l-flus jinħarġu mis-servizz biex imorru għand l-azzjonisti, ix-shareholders. PPP mhux tender pubbliku normali.…

Meta jaqbillhom jgħidulna ‘mhux aħna’
Faċli fil-mumenti tal-glorja tiftaħar kemm huwa ‘glorjuż’ il-partit u kemm ħa deċiżjonijiet tajbin meta poġġa lil Keith Schembri bħala l-‘moħħ’ wara l-kampanji elettorali tas-snin riċenti tal-Partit Laburista. Għax wara kollox kif jemmnu ħafna nies, ‘l-aqwa li tirbaħ’. Faċli – imma irid ikollok moħħ politiku mnejjek – tiftaħar bil-kandidati stilla bħal Konrad Mizzi li waqa’ mis-sema…

Vitals/Steward u l-MCAST – lanqas ċenteżmu mġiddem!
Ejjew niftakru wkoll li suppost il-Vitals, biex taparsi jagħtu xi ħaġa lura lill-komunita kellhom jiffinanzjaw u jipprovdu r-riżorsi kollha inkluż il-bini f’San Luqa bħala nursing school u placements għall-kors tal-infermiera ta’ Northumbria University/MCAST. Lanqas ċenteżmu ma’ ħarġu. Lanqas biċċa sodda, fardal, siringa jew banketta ma kkontribwew. Wisq anqas Steward. Il-kors spiċċa iffinanzjat mill-istat, bħall-bqija tal-korsijiet.…
