Let's not forget that ERA is no real agency, autonomous of the so-called Establishment, but merely a sugar-coated Government department entirely controlled by politicians, their proxies and/or lackeys.

latest comment from mario mifsud, 13/06/2024 09:13:There is a seismic change in Maltese politics . Labour is being perceived for what it is .The 3 main reasons for losing 10% of the turnout in just 2 and a half years are : 1. Clientelism rather than meritocracy. 2. The importation of foreign cheap labour on an industrial scale. 3. The rampant corruption of the Vitals, Electrogas and other scandals. A policy of continuity means Labour losing the next general election in a big way, since the non vote increased by 50 K since last general election and the loss of another 50K means Labour going below 40% of turn-out. The options for Labour are not good .
