Kemm il-Partit Nazzjonalista kif ukoll il-Labour iridu jagħtu premju lil min seraq art fl-Aħrax tal-Mellieħa biex fuqha għandu dik li tissejjaħ boathouse.
Fil-fatt dawk li għandhom boathouse fl-Aħrax tal-Mellieħa (fl-Armier, Little Armier u t-Torri l-Abjad) isejħu lilhom infushom is-sidien tal-boathouses, meta fil-fatt ma għandhom xejn li hu tagħhom għax l-art li fuqha huma mibnija l-boathouse hi tal-Gvern.
Ilhom snin twal jokkupaw din l-art u qiesu ma ġara xejn.
Aqraw ftit il-magazine Mill-Bajja li jippubblikaw dawn is-sidien tal-boathouses u issiru taf bi “ftehim” li għamlu mal-Gvern li jagħtihom l-art biex il-boathouses li għandhom illum ikunu jistgħu jibnuhom aħjar. Il-Gvern permezz ta’ ittra iffirmata mill-Viċi Prim Ministru Tonio Borg nhar it-3 t’April 2003 wiegħed lil dawn is-“sidien tal-boathouses” 230 tomna art (jiġifieri 26,000 metru kwadru) li għaliha jħallsu €366,000 fis-sena!
Il-Labour wegħdu li huma jirrispettaw dan il-ftehim.
Il-PN u l-Labour għamlu dan il-pajjiż wieħed tal-cowboys. Qed jgħidu “aħtaf li tista’, u mbagħad b’xi mod nirranġaw” !
F’Alternattiva Demokratiku ma naqblux ma dan. Meħtieġ li l-iktar kmieni possibli li l-art ħdejn il-baħar ikun jista’ jgawwdiha kulħadd, u mhux dawk li ħatfuha f’idejhom bil-barka tal-PN u tal-Labour.
Min ma jridx jagħti premju lil min seraq l-art fl-Aħrax tal-Mellieħa għaldaqstant għandu biss għażla waħda x’jagħmel: Alternattiva Demokratika.

Are these the (cowboy) values Tonio Borg is taking with him to Brussels?
Has he been given the job of Commissioner for Squatters? Will the boathouses be declared smoking zones or perhaps snus zones only?
Naqbel mieghek perfettament, Trid tesperjenza l’arroganza ta dawn in nies !!! Anke il bahar u it triq ghamlu taghhom !!!!!!!!!!!!! Mazzri tad daghjjes , mollijiet, slipways………. Kullmhemm projeta taghhom.
Some of our politicians are real scoundrels. They put party interests before national interests. They ought to be jailed and the key thrown away. So this is the Tonio Borg who has gone to Brussels to continue ( one word deleted as libelous) himself. He’s leaving behind him a country torn asunder by crass incompetence and dry rot. The article above proves al this.
Both the P.N. and the P.L. are acting despotically in this issue. Land robbers should never be rewarded but that is exactly what is happening under Dr. Lawrence Gonzi. Will we have more of the same under Dr. Joseph Muscat?
