Malta, Europe, UN, NGO’s – Humanitarian Mismanegment
The European Taxpayer is getting highly irritated with Politicians in their respective Countries. It is a expensive exercise for European taxpayers to acquire what is supposed to be a service from Politicians to manage our Countries. It is also an area that is highly unregulated, with Politicians assuming the right that instead of good management of our finances acquired through direct and indirect taxation, as their own private property, having to answer to nobody and that they answer to nobody, except for going to the polls every five years or so. They legislate in their favor into how much or if they deserve a pay rise, their expenses are as good as giving each one of them a blank cheque book, they are immune to persecution from the law of the land, they have ample ground to hide their tracks from auditors, they do not make available to the media all that should made public regarding their financing or their political party’s financing.
If one notices, they privatized everything that once belongs to the collective wealth of one’s Country, except their jobs and positions. Now we are also experiencing having to buy back toxic assets in the ‘Free Market’ financial system, not because they want to save our jobs, homes or savings, but simply to protect their investments in these failed institutions. Now this applies to all European Governments including the European Union Institutions, anarchy seems to be the order of the day.
Italy, under Silvio Berlusconi have had enough, they stopped to think, listened to the people, and acted upon the people’s concerns and legislated in their favor. Actually they went back to basics; Italy belongs to Italians and Law abiding residence permit holders, that they can spend their tax money according to Italy’s needs and requirements, to alleviate Italians solidarity needs with those needing it, for the security of Italians in their homes, neighborhood, cities and Country. In doing so, unelected NGO groups and International bodies said NO, Italians have no right for security and peace in their own Country and if they carry on with this policy, they are breaking International law!!
NGO’s and International Groups (UN and its agencies, Amnesty International, Medicines Sans Frontiers and other duplicate agencies) have been having it easy for too long. They hardly publish their accounts to today’s modern transparency accounting practices; they never restructure to reflect today’s needs, they pray on public funds and public sentiments without setting targets in either alleviating poverty in the world, stopping wars and bringing people committing atrocities to justice. It is a matter of one’s loss is another’s gain. They gain from other’s misery. That is why they never restructure or merge duplicate operations as a cost cutting exercise for a good service.
We as taxpayers, demand a stop to all this. The Media and journalists worthy of the name, must do more to inform and expose misuse of public funds even in NGO groups and International agencies such as the UN. They have a duty as Does our European Capital in the EU, to be transparent and accountable, they have to earn back our trust in Politicians and Institutions. Politicians are duty bound as their oath in office, that first and foremost protect their Country and its rightful citizens in all functions that compose a Country. Yes to Solidarity with poor Countries, refugees and those that are going through a crisis be it what it may, but NO to bringing everybody to the West in order to achieve this. Give them the instruments in world for a, desist from temptation of multinational Companies to make agreements with Countries that don’t play by international rules, intervene early where atrocities take place in the best interest of the world community, get the involvement of all international communities as the west cannot afford to neglect their own citizens while others just watch and criticize well intentioned actions. It is called back to basics, where citizens first of all felt secure in their own Country in order to assist others. We need to have some kind of law and order that we can respect, to afford to have and build a family for the benefit of our Country. Europe can ill afford to receive in its homeland the millions of Africans wanting to earn a living at our expense, yes we can help them in their homeland and show them the benefits of freedom, but not by giving aide to corrupt unaccountable governments that don’t have the decency to sign international rights laws, they are just making mockery of us as a well intentioned Union of People wanting to help, you will only waste our money that can help our own needy people in Europe by giving up our hard earned cash to non signatories Nations of UN rights conventions by doing so. You will have aided corruption to flourish; you would be no better off than those corrupt Governments. Europe should enlist the expertise of Dambisa Moyo (writer of Dead Aide) to understand poverty and how to manage it. Multi culture in Europe is dead, and the people mean it, We do not want another Yugoslav tragedy in our midst on a grander scale, because if we keep on this track, it will be only a matter of time till another stupid Hitler crops up in Europe that gathers enough support to wreck havoc and misery.

| Italy Cracking Down on Illegal Immigration | |
| By Sabina CastelfrancoRome14 May 2009
|
Italy is cracking down on illegal immigration and under an agreement with Libya has begun sending boatloads of migrants back to Africa. Italy’s lower house of parliament has approved a new security bill by that redefines illegal immigration as a criminal offense.
During a ceremony in the Italian port town of Gaeta, Interior Minister Roberto Maroni gave Libya the first three of six patrol boats as part of an agreement to stem the flow of illegal immigrants.
Italy has long pressed Libya to better patrol its coasts to prevent boats carrying African immigrants from leaving its shores in search of a better life in Europe.

Last week, Italy started sending boatloads of migrants it intercepted in international waters back to Libya without first screening them for asylum claims. Libyan Ambassador to Italy Hafid Gaddur said his country could process the requests from asylum seekers who might otherwise have presented the requests in Italy.
The U.N. refugee agency has criticized the new policy, saying it is against international law and criticizing Libya’s alleged lack of facilities.
But Interior Minister Maroni said Italy needs international backing.
He said in the fight against illegal immigration, there are a lot of instruments at our disposal, but they are not sufficient if there is a lack of international collaboration to combat the trafficking of human beings.
Maroni said said the European Union must step in and help member states that bear the brunt of illegal immigration in the Mediterranean. He said Italy is a front-line state against illegal immigration and invests its own funds to protect other European countries.
Wednesday, Italy’s lower house of parliament approved a security bill that redefines illegal immigration as a criminal offense. The lawmakers voted to fine illegal immigrants up to $15,000 and jail people who house them in Italy.
The new measures would lengthen the amount of time illegal migrants can spend in detention and allows local officials to set up citizen patrols.
The new security bill must be approved by the Italian Senate, parliament’s upper house, before it becomes law.
Italy receives the world’s fourth-highest number of asylum claims each year after the United States, Canada and France.

Italian MPs back crackdown on illegal migrants
New law criminalizing illegal entry or residence is aimed at curbing boats run by smuggling rings
Wednesday 13 May 2009 13.52 BST
Italy‘s lower chamber of parliament passed a controversial bill today making it a crime to enter or stay in Italy illegally‚ in the latest effort by Silvio Berlusconi’s conservative forces to crack down on illegal immigration.
To ensure swift passage, the Italian prime minister’s allies put the legislation to a confidence vote, which they easily won 316-258. Confidence votes force MPs to close ranks, since any defeat would bring about the government’s resignation.
The legislation makes it a crime to enter or stay in Italy without permission, punishable by a fine of €5,000-€10,000 (£4,500-£9,000) but no prison penalty. Anyone who rents housing to an illegal immigrant faces up to three years’ jail.
The measure must now be approved by the senate.
Berlusconi’s conservative coalition has been trying to clamp down on illegal immigrants, bolstered by surveys showing that many Italians link immigrants to crime.
Last year, more than 36,000 immigrants from Africa and elsewhere arrived in Italy by boat, many coming ashore on the tiny Sicilian island of Lampedusa. Hundreds of boats run by organized smuggling rings set off from Libya alone.
Italy now ranks fourth after the US, Canada and France for the number of asylum-seekers, according to the Italian Refugee Council, a humanitarian group. Last year 31,160 people sought asylum in Italy, more than double the number from 2007.
This month, Italy has started sending back to Libya boatloads of people it intercepted in international waters without screening them first for possible asylum claims. The UN refugee agency, the Vatican and human rights organizations have voiced outrage, saying Italy is breaching international law.
The government, which has long complained that it has been left alone by the European Union to deal with illegal immigration, has defended the new policy, saying the UN refugee agency could screen asylum-seekers in Libya.
Italy’s new return policy is not part of the bill passed today by parliament’s lower house, but of an overall security bill that also would authorize citizen anti-crime patrols.
While Italy has long issued expulsion orders for illegal immigrants, the new law would criminalize illegal entry or residence – something critics say could result in people being turned in for simply going to a doctor.
Rocco Buttiglione, a centre-right MP, bitterly criticized the bill before the vote, saying it would bring “slavery” to Italy by creating a class of workers without any rights.
He said it would restrict illegal migrants to employment as factory workers and care workers “in a condition of material and moral inferiority”.
The end result, he said, would be that the immigrants, rather than turning to police when they needed to, would go to the mafia or seek vigilante justice.
Manuela del Lago, of the anti-immigrant Northern League party, which spearheaded the legislation, said Italy was embarking on the right path. “We don’t understand why we have to keep them all here, and in other countries they don’t take anyone,” she said.
Under an immigration law adopted when Berlusconi was last in power, immigrants must have a job awaiting them in order to get a residency permit.
Italian authorities issue expulsion orders for asylum-seekers who do not qualify, although many of the tens of thousands of clandestine migrants who arrive in Italy yearly slip through the cracks. They either stay in Italy secretly or travel to other European countries to find jobs or meet up with family.

Now that is enough said about UK Politicians. I am getting increasingly worried of wasted tax payers of MEP, as they are also never transparent or have their expenses scrutinized, to top it all they voted themselves a pay rise for 2009 when everybody else is asked to cut back, losing his job or losing his home.
They are the least accountable lot that hide their tracks from investigative media reporters or publishing their audits. Thank God for the leaked Galvin report.

Malta and Europe – On a Self Destruction Mission
The European Elections has jolted our own Politicians (PL and PN) and the European Politicians to crawl out of hibernation and will be active for a wee while (till after beginning of June) and then they will either be going into hibernation once again till another election threatens their job or they go on a partying/spending spree (off EU tax money).
The funny thing is that they sprung into action and acclaiming credit to a problem that they have ignored and denied for years, something that Malta, Italy and the EU Politicians are guilty in it. Now that their very job is under threat by not only the Maltese electorate but also a host of EU Countries electorate, as Polls on Euronews and other European Countries polls indicate, the people demand solutions. Most politicians of major parties with big budgets to ward off any flack from illegal immigration problems are as usual resorting to presenting themselves as fighters for the peoples cause and concerns, but by now surely the EU public knows very well that the Politicians efforts will only last till after June elections, then it’s the usual silent invasion of Europe continues. The usual European workers losing their jobs and free handouts to illegal immigrants.
Mentioning all of this, it is also true that since the start of this year, the number of boat people carrying illegal immigrants have fallen, not because there is a lack of illegal immigrants wanting to start their journey to Europe, but precisely because of the European Elections. The hidden hand behind this lucrative human trafficking business know very well that if hard line Politicians are voted in, it will be the end of their business. Who might have a stake in this high income business?
Well my grave suspicions are with those that have a lot at stake, the obvious losers of income if illegal immigration comes to a halt are- Yes, you’ve guessed it, our beloved EU Politicians with our Tax money cheque book , giving infinite amount of unaccountable money to African Nations to supposedly elevating those Nations out of Poverty. If the results in Africa looked promising, it would have been money well spent, as Africa could have started on the road to recovery, with less lives being lost and living standards improved. That is obviously not the case as everyone with a brain can notice. The other equally worried entities that will stand to lose if the traditional politicians are voted out of the EU are quite a few world class agencies and NGO groups. They are equally beneficiaries of infinite amount of money with no accountability, namely UNHCR, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), Amnestity International, the Jesuits and other highly tax money paid groups. They are also the once holding whole Countries hostage by blackmailing politicians into either playing into their hands or otherwise exposing their Countries into International shame and condemnation. Believe me they have enough power and friends in the media to do just that, even if it is not just. Their failure (Politicians and the other groups) will be dumped on our conscience just like they shirked off their involvement and responsibility when the financial crises hit the man in the street.
If, and only if, one supposes that the EU electorate manages to push in change in Europe, at least one battle would have been won for Europe, and delayed the occupation of Europe by this subtle masonry groups, which on one hand claim separation of church and state and on the other hand they manage to privilege other religions (namely Islam) .Try as you might, the day will come when Europe be no more and out of its ashes will rise Eurabia. The new World Order will be Islamic, like it or not. George Orwell predicted it as did Nostradamus. At the end of the day, Europe would have got what it has deserved, as it was to drunk and continually raped by its European sons and daughters that despised her by their neglect in finding true leaders among its midst to protect and legislate in keeping her(Europe) safe and powerful for her future generations. Europe deserves its self imposed doom.

A nurse could be sacked and even struck off for offering to say a prayer for an elderly patient.
Caroline Petrie, a community nurse and devout Christian, has already been suspended for an alleged breach of her code of conduct on equality and diversity.
She now faces disciplinary action, even though the patient involved did not make a formal complaint.
Suspended: Caroline Petrie offered to pray to help a patient recover
The case has outraged the Christian community, which warns its members are becoming ‘the most discriminated against people in society’.
They cited previous instances including that of Heathrow check-in worker Nadia Eweida, who in 2006 was banned from wearing a cross around her neck at work.
Last night Mrs Petrie, 45, insisted she was not trying to force her beliefs on others, but was simply offering a little spiritual help.
She said: ‘I have trouble understanding how offering to pray for someone could be upsetting. I feel it’s a nice thing to ask and a way to give hope that circumstances can change.’
She made the prayer offer to May Phippen, 79, in December, at the end of a home visit.
Modern Christian Persecution in Britain - A Britain without identity
Mrs Phippen, a widow who lives with relatives, mentioned the offer in passing to another nurse the next day.
Caroline denies forcing her faith on anyone and said she was only trying to help by politely offering to pray for a patient
The great-grandmother told the Mail last night: ‘It didn’t worry me, it just struck me as a strange thing for a nurse to do. She finished dressing my legs and before she left the last thing she asked was would you like me to say a prayer for you? I said “no thank you” and then she went.
‘It was the first time I’d seen her. She was a nice lady, did the job properly and was quietly spoken. Personally I wouldn’t want to see her sacked for something like that.
‘I have Christian beliefs myself and maybe she meant well. But it could perhaps be upsetting for some other people if they have different beliefs or thought that she meant they looked in such a bad way that they needed praying for.’
Mrs Petrie claims she was confronted the following day, December 16, by a nursing sister who told her the patient had been ‘taken aback’ by the offer.
The next day the mother of two, of Weston-Super-Mare, north Somerset, received a message on her home phone from her co-ordinator telling her that disciplinary action would be taken. She was then suspended.
Yesterday Mrs Petrie said that she tried to ask every patient if they would like her to pray for them, except if it seemed they may be of a different faith.
‘Many of them want me to pray for them. I can’t believe that I’ve been suspended over this,’ she said.
Her husband Stewart Petrie, 48, a telecom engineer said: ‘It seems ridiculous to me that it has come to this. I hope commonsense will prevail.’
Mrs Petrie has been a committed Christian since the age of ten, when her mother died of breast cancer. She switched from the Church of England to the Baptist faith nine years ago.
She admits she received a previous warning about promoting her faith at work. Last October she offered to give a prayer card to an elderly male patient in Clevedon, Somerset. He accepted it but his carer raised concerns with the Primary Care Trust.
Alison Withers, Mrs Petrie’s boss at the time, wrote to her at the end of November saying: ‘As a nurse you are required to uphold the reputation of your profession.
‘Your NMC (Nursing Midwifery Council) code states that “you must demonstrate a personal and professional commitment to equality and diversity” and “you must not use your professional status to promote causes that are not related to health”.’
As a result Mrs Petrie, who qualified as a nurse in 1985 and has worked part-time for the North Somerset Authority since February 2008, was ordered to attend an equality course. Such courses can include learning to make a judgment on whether your words are likely to offend the person they are directed to.
Mrs Petrie had an internal disciplinary hearing last Wednesday. She awaits the outcome.
A North Somerset Primary Care Trust spokesman confirmed that the nurse has been suspended pending an investigation.
Mrs Petrie is a bank nurse, which means she is employed by the trust and drafted in when necessary, to be paid by the hour.
The spokesman added: ‘She has been told we will not be using her in this capacity until the outcome of our investigation is known. We always take any concerns raised by our patients most seriously and conscientiously investigate any matter of this nature brought to our attention.’
Mrs Petrie has taken legal advice from the Christian Legal Centre. Paul Diamond, a leading religious rights barrister, has been instructed to handle the case.
Mr Diamond represented Miss Eweida and last year appeared for Relate counsellor Gary McFarlane, of Bristol, who was sacked for refusing to give sex counselling to homosexuals.
A source close to the current case told the Daily Mail: ‘Caroline Petrie is being disciplined under equal opportunities and “diversity” policies – and there is a growing tendency to use such policies to single out for attack our own Judaeo-Christian customs and culture.
‘Christians are now becoming the most discriminated-against group of people in our society. It’s getting quite frightening and out of hand.’
BA cahellenge to Christians
The Reverend Prebendery John Andrews, spokesman for the diocese of Bath and Wells, which covers north Somerset, said: ‘The simple offer of a prayer is perfectly in keeping with the healing ministry of the church, and for Mrs Petrie to be disciplined purely for that would be extremely regrettable.’
Persecuted for praying: Nurse who faces the sack after offering to pray for sick patient

A nurse could be sacked and even struck off for offering to say a prayer for an elderly patient.
Caroline Petrie, a community nurse and devout Christian, has already been suspended for an alleged breach of her code of conduct on equality and diversity.
She now faces disciplinary action, even though the patient involved did not make a formal complaint.
Suspended: Caroline Petrie offered to pray to help a patient recover
The case has outraged the Christian community, which warns its members are becoming ‘the most discriminated against people in society’.
They cited previous instances including that of Heathrow check-in worker Nadia Eweida, who in 2006 was banned from wearing a cross around her neck at work.
Last night Mrs Petrie, 45, insisted she was not trying to force her beliefs on others, but was simply offering a little spiritual help.
She said: ‘I have trouble understanding how offering to pray for someone could be upsetting. I feel it’s a nice thing to ask and a way to give hope that circumstances can change.’

Illegal Migration-European Countries Can- Malta Can’t
Britain is too soft on Calais immigrants, says France
By Peter Allen
Last updated at 1:58 AM on 29th January 2009
France has called on Britain to toughen up its act against the tide of illegal migrants crossing the Channel.
During a crisis visit to Calais, France’s hardline new immigration minister Eric Besson criticised his London counterparts.
He claimed that lax security in the Channel Tunnel and at ferry ports was encouraging thousands to try to enter Britain illegally, causing huge problems for the French.
In an upcoming meeting with British immigration minister Phil Woolas, Mr Besson will make it clear that there will be no new version of the Red Cross refugee centre at Sangatte, near Calais.
He said a permanent hostel would only serve as a springboard for the migrants already in the northern French port – and as a magnet for thousands more to arrive.
He hoped to silence repeated calls by aid agencies for a new shelter for migrants to be set up in Calais.
The original Sangatte hostel was blamed for becoming a stepping stone to Britain for more than 50,000 refugees over five years.
It was finally bulldozed in 2002 in a joint agreement between and France.
Since then, refugee charities have provided food and clothing to bedraggled immigrants in Calais, but not given them overnight shelter.
Hundreds now live in filthy conditions in a woodland shanty town near the ferry port called the ‘jungle’.
The appalling conditions and fighting over food have triggered frequent clashes between rival immigrant gangs and police. A London journalist was raped by an Afghan refugee last year after visiting the camp to write a news article.
Mr Besson was in Calais today to explore ways to help solve the immigration crisis which has plagued the northern French coast for a decade.
He said: “I don’t pretend to have all the answer today but I am visiting Calais in the hope of finding them.
“I hope to have made final decisions on what to do about Calais by May 1.”
He added: “But I will say now that it is out of the question to reopen a new hostel for immigrants in Calais.
“This would only help the immigrants that are there already to remain there or cross illegally to Britain.
“And it would become a powerful incentive for more immigrants to come there.
“It would also not be a solution to the humanitarian problem. It would be an extra humanitarian problem.
“I will meet with British officials in the coming days and I intend to make the ferries and channel tunnel watertight to illegal immigrants.
“Our British partners must commit themselves more actively in the reinforcement of checks and security at Calais, in their own interests and ours.”
Mr Besson also said earlier this week that he is set to bring in legislation that would allow DNA testing of new immigrants arriving in France.
The tests would establish which foreigners were genuine refugees and which were claiming visas by making up fictious family ties with those already in France.
The DNA scans will be for applications for visas of more than three months when there are doubts about an immigrant’s birth or marriage certificates.
Civil liberties groups reacted furiously to the scheme, which was approved by the French parliament 15 months ago but does not come into effect until Mr Besson has signed the legislation – a move which until now has been delayed by protests.
But Mr Besson has now said he wanted to enact the proposals, adding: “If the decree is accepted, I will scrupulously respect all individual liberties. It’s not my obsession.”
But immigrant welfare activist Daniele Lochak, former president of GISTI immigrants support group, said: “It’s obvious that applicants who refuse DNA tests will have every chance of having their visas refused.”
The cost of up to £350 per test would also to be beyond the reach of many immigrant families, he said.
France civil law also says that taking and examining a person’s DNA can only be for medical or scientific research, meaning magistrates will have to authorise the new immigrant tests.
Outgoing immigration minister Brice Hortefeux recently announced that France deported 30,000 illegal migrants in 2008 – a record number.
It was a rise of more than 25 per cent on the number expelled the previous year.
Pledge: French immigration minister Eric Besson, right with Afghan refugees at the ‘Jungle’ camp at Calais, also promised never to open a new Sangatte

Malta Illegal Immegration – Nobody Else Responsable
Well, summer and good weather seems something not to look forward to these days. Illegal Immigration organized by the Libyan Authorities to invade Europe and in the process turn Europe into Muslim states, as was stated by the Libyan Dictator Qaddafi, is turning from a prophecy to reality. Thanks to our idle Leaders in the European Union, Malta has been turned from a European Country to an African Nation, where most of the Labor work is now being done by the black market economy. They operate in all kinds of jobs where they are not accountable to taxes, National Insurance, not covered by minimum work standards and benefits. They do however get Government assistance, help and grants as their rights are looked after by NG
O’s that make sure that they are the best treated entity on the Island.
I think the only reasons that this discrimination against the Maltese Citizens is part of the EU agenda, by the so called “European Partners” Is because
- The German Leadership still carries the stigma from atrocities carried out in the last world war, and they want redemption through irrational Illegal Immigration into Europe.
- France is already mostly run by Immigrant descendants that obviously prefer to help immigrants rather than Europeans.
- Italy is run mostly by Mafia gangs that make profit in Human Trafficking. Well to be honest, since Berlusconi became Prime Minister, things are changing in Italy, with the Government seriously listening to his citizens and giving the middle finger to the 785 EU members of Parliament that want to dictate and support lawlessness and backing criminal activity, finally one Country least expected to advocate Law and order. Well done to the Italians, they proved to be in control of their Nation
- Spain, normally releases illegal immigrants and let them move on to other European Nations
- United Kingdom, is a joke, they don’t even know who’s where, there’s probably more illegal immigrants than British, don’t ask me as not even the British Authorities don’t have a clue.
- Malta is being used as an experimental ground for things that might happen in Europe, when a country starts tipping the balance from mostly local citizens to illegal immigrants.
Than we come to NGO’s, does anyone really know why they are so committed in keeping this human tragedy alive? It is because they are the most beneficiaries of Government grants and unlimited budgets from EU (which is never accountable as to how it’s spent).So they are in reality no better than accomplices in Human Trafficking as they get the best highest paid jobs and accountable to nobody. All they have to say in their defense if they are investigated is either giving it a racist format, make a report against the Government and feeding it through EU institutions, that normally suffice in scaring either the complaining population or Governments. The almighty EU institutions in Brussels don’t even give a damn if a country is realistically suffering through illegal immigration influx. The Malta Armed forces have been reduced to a taxi service to bring in the daily influx of migrants while they can’t even rescue Maltese fishermen or the countless of swimmers that end up in difficulty and end up drowning as they rather be out at sea searching for illegal migrant boats and giving them a ride home.
The Maltese Government and the Opposition party are both to blame and are accomplice to the human Trafficking trade, as they are scared to openly discuss the high influx of illegal migration and they just bury their heads in the sand and hoping that the matter will solve itself on its own. They say they can do nothing about the situation as they are signatory’s to UN and EU treaties. But I say they can!
- Firstly they can organize an international press invitation to show the world at large how a small state like Malta cannot make it alone in solving the problem.
- Shame both the EU and Libya in international forums like in the UN and if necessary the President or the Prime Minister writes to the UN Secretary General about the situation.
- Make it illegal for employers to pick up illegal immigrants from open centers to work, it should be coordinated through a Government agency, where an employer that requires the services of an illegal migrant has to pay in advance to the Agency, where they ensure that a minimum wage is given, Tax and National Insurance is paid for, Expenses for the services being given to the migrant at the open centers is deducted (they have to be made accountable and start sharing the burden not having a free living, they must be treated like the rest of us) with the rest given to the migrant.
- Any employer found employing illegal migrant not through the Agency is heavily fined and either given a minimum sentence of community service or jailing if necessary.
- Government should also consider that employment permits will not be issued to illegal migrants entering Malta and instead employers wanting migrants services should be allowed to apply to the ETC to organize the Malta Embassy in Libya to provide migrant workers for the employers, where the employers are made fully responsible for the migrants, including accommodation, health services, minimum income for migrants, Pay their taxes and National Insurance. There is no better deterrent than not giving the impression that everything is free for illegals in Europe.
It is ridiculous making life for these illegal migrants so easy and burden free, while nationals are burdened with unlimited taxes, direct and indirect, with the gap closing rapidly between the middle class falling into the poverty line with close to no assistance from the Government, and to get assistance a national needs unlimited authorized government documents (sometimes with birth certificates and marriage certificates of long dead and buried relatives) and for migrants no documents is necessary and their word is taken for granted. That is pure discrimination and racism against the white skinned community. If they don’t require documentation the rest of us do not need to have documentation or ID’s.
Both the Government, the Opposition, and the Maltese public have nothing to be ashamed from. We are doing our best with the limited resources. If the problem is left to accumulate with the wait and see attitude adopted by the Government and the Opposition, it will not take long for Nostradamus prophecy Century 4 Quatrain 68 to turn into reality. The Maltese are surprisingly tolerant but with World economic crisis looming who knows what other surprises are on the horizon. We have just seen how pathetic and helpless the police where in keeping public order during the four day public transport strike, and that does not augur well should they have a rioting migrants or from the Maltese themselves for that matter. I guess I know where all the Maltese Politicians will be though, most probably abdicating their responsibilities and fled to the comfort zone of some European Country!
