Press Release from the Campaign for National Independence



The taxpayer and the Contract for the two Conversions at the Malta Shipyards


A lot of harm is being done by hiding from the public the real facts about the Malta Shipyards. Still worse more damage is done when the public is told that the fault of the deteriorating situation at the Malta Shipyards rests with the workers, while the real fault is the incompetent and irresponsible management during these last years.

Those who are in the know of the true realities at the Malta Shipyards are quite justified to suspect that there is a hidden agenda so that its situation is depicted as so hopeless that the public opinion is led to believe and accept that segments from the Malta Shipyards be handed over to select private operators, while other segments be handed over to select real estate developers for speculative intentions and so the Malta Shipyards would not remain to be a complete entity employing 1,700 workers.

It is quite understandable that the Malta Shipyards workers insist for the holding of a public and independent inquest to investigate how and why a considerable number of millions of dollars werea lost on the contract of the conversion of the ‘Fairmount’. It is not right that the blame be attributed to the workers, when the entire blame rests with the Executive Management. Equally condemnable are the attempts of those who want to mislead and deceive the opinion of the Maltese public by concealing the grave mistakes in the estimates of the work performed on the ‘Fairmount’ and the incompetent and irresponsible way these estimates were undertaken.

If the Government continues to ignore the appeal of the workers to hold a public and independent inquiry on the contract of the ‘Fairmount’, which should also include representatives from the tax-paying public, it would find it very difficult to clear up the suspicions and mistrust of a lot of people who maintain that the enormous losses on the ‘Fairmount’ were incurred on purpose as an excuse for the hidden strategy for the dismantling of the Malta Shipyards at the termination of the seven year period of the plan for the Restructuring of the Malta Shipyards.

The workers’ complaints about the ‘Fairmount’ contract are numerous and seriously grave. Among such complaints one finds: i) that the Malta Shipyards would not even be collecting the expenses connected with the purchase of the material used and the payments made to outside sub-contractors who carried out major parts of the works with their own personnel, ii) that these works carried out were faulty iii) that such works had to be redone by the Malta Shipyards workers with the consequent loss going to the Malta Shipyards, iv) that the assignment had been altered three or four times, with still more loss of time and money for the Malta Shipyards, v) that the Management accepted difficult and harsh conditions by the owners that burdened the works programme with unnecessary over manning, vi) that the contract conditions were negotiated by Graham Crouser, whom the Malta Shipyards had engaged as a Marketing Executive for three years but who quitted after only six months, and in which formulation of the contract he never accepted the participation, as should have been, of the Marketing Manager, the Commercial Manager, the Project Manager, the Drawing Office Manager and the Planning Department, and finally vii) that the loss for the Malta Shipyards would amount to around 20 million Maltese liri solely on the first project.

When considering these publicly repeated grave accusations made by the Malta Shipyards workers themselves, as well as their insistence for a public and independent inquiry on these matters, with the participation of taxpayers’ representatives, anyone who has nothing to conceal and who genuinely wants the truth out regarding the ‘Fairmount’ contract, should, without further hesitation, express their consent to the demand for the inquiry. If such request is not granted, it is clearly evident that someone has reason to conceal facts and cause injustice by blaming the workers.

It is also commendable to know whether there is any truth that the sub-contractors who were responsible for the accommodation of the foreign workers were paid in advance for the first and second conversions and had now left the island with the money they had pocketed, and thus the Malta Shipyards is now compelled to pay again for the accommodation of these foreign workers.

In this regard, it is expected that an official declaration be issued regarding the truthfulness of this affair, and if proved so, who is responsible. Furthermore, is it true or not that the sum that would finally have been paid to the sub-contractors, for naught whatever, would amount to more than 2,000,000 Euros.

The secrecy revolving round this contract of the ’Fairmont’ continues to strengthen the opinion of those who maintain that there must be those who made a good profit from it at the cost of the Malta Shipyards, who incurred such a huge deficit! Due to these factors, it is in the public interest that the conditions of the contract be publicly made known, as has been for long demanded by the Malta Shipyards workers, who are truly convinced that it is not them who are responsible for its failure and consequent fiasco.

In these circumstances, how can the Minister responsible for the Malta Shipyards continue to refuse the honest petition to hold a public and independent inquiry with the participation of the taxpayers’ representatives??

So what, the death certificate has already been written for the Malta Shipyards long time ago.

I will not say that the workers (at least some workers) have no blame at all. But a worker can only do so much damage. One cannot blame all the Shipyard's failings on worker productivity. Even if it were solely due to worker productivity, who is responsible for ensuring that employees are productive?

Press Release for all media

The decision regarding the Malta Shipyards:

A National Betrayal

The CNI wants to express its disgust for the decision by the Cabinet of Ministers to substantially curtail the number of workers at the Malta Shipyards and to retail the dockyards to foreign entities.

These decisions were taken with the Government’s agreement with the European Union and not in consultation with the workers and neither following any discussions in the Maltese Parliament.

The CNI would like to remind one that the number of workers at the Malta Shipyards had been agreed upon 7 years ago between the European Union and the Maltese Government in the Malta Drydocks Restructuring Plan. However, now the Government and the European Union are claiming that they were wrong since the Malta Shipyards could not become viable, much less likely making a profit, with the number of workers agreed upon seven years ago.

Everything is indicating that the Government plan, with the consent of the European Union, was that the Malta Shipyards be cut down and given to the private sector, and by the negative financial results incurred by the Management of the Malta Shipyards giving justification to the implementation of this plan.

The CNI would never assent or consent to this betrayal of the national interests of the people of Malta.

[Brigantes]

I thank you for doing your fair share, I only get angry with you when you make no sense. I have to agree with you.;)

Me too.

Here is my bit for today for fighting the disease:


Many Maltese are confused as to why some of their fellow countrymen and women support the idea of a multicultural Maltese society even when masses of evidence from Northern Europe shows that for Indigenous peoples it is a proven disaster.Even more confusion arises when these same people listen to the accusations and slanders spouted by these multicult types at anyone who dares to voice the slightest opposition to their beliefs.But should one be confused ?.Not if one does a little research on the subject of Liberalism.The Internet can be home all types of opinions as the do-gooders have not managed to regulate it.....................yet.

Yes,the do-gooders,the multicult,liberals.

Why do they deny reality?

Liberalism as a disease:

Author unknown

Liberalism is a disease of the mind. The disease causes brain rot. Because of the brain rot, facts cannot be injected into the thought process unless they agree with the pre determined conclusion. Researchers have concluded that once the inabilty to inject facts into the thought process (when and if the facts disagree with the pre determined conclusion) it causes system overload. The whole thought process shuts down completely at this time. Research has also shown that even after sytem overload in the liberal mind, the contunual injection of fact (that disagree with the pre determined conclusion) only results in sudden loss of hearing or incoherent slander of the individual injecting the facts. Sort of like when a child puts thier hands over thier ears and sings la la da la da. Researchers have come to the conclusion that once liberalism has reached this stage of brain rot refered to as "garfarloism" when facts can no longer be injected in the rationalization process then all hope is lost for that individual who suffers from this disease. Jeanne Garfalo is perfect example of "liberalism" disease in its final stages.

When you think about it, this is why liberals have to mass together joined in the mind with one thought. Diversity of opinion may bring about the later stages of the disease at a much faster pace. The system overload caused by disageement with fact increase the pace of the brain rot. The only defense a person infected by "liberalism" has, is to band together with like-minded people and try to slow the pace of brain rot.

The brain-rot caused by "liberalism" effects the many who have it in different ways. The most narcistic of those infected seem to last the longest (becuase of the fact that they surround themselves with a sickifant following). This helps them maintain functionibilty by gaurding them (Striesdand/Gore/Billary types) from the opposing truths that may trigger brain overload as descibed in my theory. Those like Jeanne Garfalo do not have the kind of money or fame to surround themselves with these kind of shields (sickifants). You see what happened to her after being exposed to fact by Bill O'Rielly. O'Rielly took it easy on her too. Another example is how the "elite" (Hillary/Gore etc..)known to have been infected with "liberalism" disease only appear on talk shows that are friendly to thier point of view. Like Baba Wawa or Katie Couric, Larry King, etc... This only re-enforces the arguments made in my theory.
And of course most professors are protected from the advanced stages caused by exposure to truth because of the "diversity of the thought" free zones college campus's provide.

Recent studies on the disease known as "liberalism" conclude that when "liberalism" progresses to the point of "garfarloism" that continual factual sarcarsm applied to the infected will cause the infected to run away (tail between the thier legs style). Currently there is no cure for "liberalism" once its reached its "garfarloism" stage.

Liberalism is to Garafarloism as HIV is to AIDS

[Sepp44]

I thank you for doing your fair share, I only get angry with you when you make no sense. I have to agree with you.;)

I always make sense one way or the other.I like to call it realistic.Whether one makes sense(drunk or otherwise) of what I say depends on ones level of experience/s.Daffnee for example would faint with orgasmic seizures if she had experienced but one tenth of what I have as regards to blacks.Besides,illegal immigration is but one level of a big game.

Though I have been and will continue to be critical of the Maltese(as I am critical of Germans and Hungarians)never will I call for Maltese to be deported in preference to Africans of all sorts of tribal dispositions.Never would I prefer a negro over my own kind.Fat mouths like Andrew Borg Cardona and clowns like daffnee should put their 'opinions' on the line and try and debate what they say and claim against rabid racists like Norman Lowell.They should be challenged to a public debate to answer their charges/allegations.

Illegal migration
CNI president laments about public apathy
(http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20081018/local/cni-president-laments-about-public-apathy)
Malta needs to adopt a zero-tolerance attitude and stem illegal immigration by stopping all foreigners from coming in without a permit, the president of Campaign for National Independence, Karmenu Mifsud Bonnici, said yesterday.

He said national interest requires the government to send back out anyone who comes into the country without a permit. Moreover, those who withhold personal information should be jailed and retained in prison until they collaborate.

The former Labour Prime Minister described both the Frontex patrols and burden sharing as measures that encourage illegal immigration without the government realising it. He criticised the apathy demonstrated by the public in front of the problem.

Dr Mifsud Bonnici said Frontex was bringing illegal migrants to Malta's shores rather than keeping them away. In addition, the EU burden-sharing agreement signed on Thursday would give migrants more hope of remaining in Europe.

He said that if the EU needs immigrants to make up for dwindling birth rates, it should launch schemes to regulate the influx.

Dr Mifsud Bonnici accused Maltese parliamentarians of betraying the national interest by not taking measures to protect the country. "We should call on MPs and insist that they take decisive and concrete steps to stop people from coming in illegally," he insisted.

"Dr Mifsud Bonnici accused Maltese parliamentarians of betraying the national interest by not taking measures to protect the country. "We should call on MPs and insist that they take decisive and concrete steps to stop people from coming in illegally," he insisted."

At the next MEP elections we need candidates that put the National interest BEFORE the human traffickers lucrative interest.

David Seychell (1 hour, 6 minutes ago)
I agree with everything you said. The next MEP elections are nearer, why don't you give it a try as an independent candidate?

James Cauchi (1 hour, 35 minutes ago)
No... he is actually refering to public apathy.

The apathy of citizens who live in a self-imposed culture of shrugged (and brushed) shoulders, of grumbling inaction, of paranoid fear of the dark forces that manifest through enforcement, coverage and simple peer pressure.

That is precisely the kind of apathy that helps our government to get away with things that a previous Labour government was figuratively hung for (increased taxes/ utilities anybody?).

Will the people let the government get away with negligence of a nation? The outlook is far from promising.

Eric Soames (2 hours, 53 minutes ago)
Shouldn't that be Government apathy?

i wasn't expecting that KMB would talk so directly and proposing such tough action on immigrants. i'm surprised but off course glad, that such respected politician is proposing similiar actions that we're putting forward to fix this problem.

however, i advice KMB, that the problem isn't because they are coming in illegaly, the problem is that they are coming in! the eu is already opening job centres in africa, because apperently their solution is to turn illegal immigration into legal immigration, when we all now, the whole problem is mass immigration from 3rd world countries. illegaly or legal, is only a technical issue!

THE AUDACITY OF HOPE


“History is moving, and it will tend toward hope, or tend toward tragedy.”
George W. Bush


In ‘The Audacity of Hope’, President-elect Barack Obama calls for a different brand of politics – a politics for those weary of bitter partisanship and alienated by the “endless clash of armies”. That’s his book. A senator and a lawyer, a professor and a father, a Christian and a skeptic, and above all a student of history and human nature, Obama had written this book.

“Change We Need” and “Yes We Can” were his winning slogans.

There’s nothing negative in his writings. Only inspiration and hope. Hope for all people.

Obama ran and won on ‘CHANGE’, and Americans have voted for change. History has just been made. The American people have had enough of fear, lies and cowboy-style foreign policy. Now that he’s elected, he has strongly confirmed that “change has come to America”. We are now all looking forward to the “new dawn”.

“America is freed from a burden” was the message from the foreign editor of the ‘Suddeutsche Zeitung’. ‘Le Monde’ praised the ‘Great Victory’, while ‘Le Figaro’ celebrated a ‘Historic Election’. The British Conservative opposition leader, David Cameron, enthused: “America has made history and proved to the world that it is a nation eager for change.” In a special edition of ‘Liberation’, Laurent Joffren, the editor, enthusiastically pronounced: “Finally hope! It suffices to imagine for a moment the opposite outcome: a stiff, conservative senator flanked by an ignorant mystic taking over for four years the brutal policies of George W. Bush.” And the Russian ‘Pravda’ said: “Eight years of hell are over….”. (Dare we hope that the eight-year nightmare is over?) Who cannot excuse the Americans for wanting change? Many Americans even hailed Obama as the ‘Prince of Hope’. Many a face we saw shedding tears of gratitude and hope.

But now we will stop these outpourings of emotion!

As a rule, Americans are rather more racist and conservative and, considering that race is always the sub-plot to the American story, one is justified in seeing this as a surprise victory. In Obama they saw an embodiment of the desired change. For many people, the change in the White House is seen as an end to a government they despised and which shocked and angered the world with its arrogance and military aggression.

The first African-American President-elect will be facing problems both on the domestic and on the international panoramas.

On the home front Obama will have to deal with the financial crisis affecting a large part of the domestic economy. Can he confront the mega-corporations, or face the centre of world power – corporate capital? Will a President Obama face the Rothschilds, the Rockefellers or the international corporations? Is Obama inclined to lead the American people to the promised land of peace and justice or simply to remove some of the barriers that have been erected over the last 40 years that have stifled the better instincts of the American people?

The American people gave him a popular mandate to change the U.S. foreign policy to defend human rights around the world, instead of defending particular and special interests.

Would he be able to honour his campaign slogans promising fundamental foreign policy changes and not just minor tactical alterations?

The election of Barack Obama to the presidency of the United States will not change the nation’s image overnight. However, Latin America is a good place to start to lay out a new foreign policy approach of non-intervention, multilateralism and mutual respect.

Obama has promised to withdraw U.S. forces from Iraq, where he does not intend to leave any residual force. We are all waiting and hoping!

On the other hand, will he be able to keep his promise to refrain from getting the U.S. involved in any future military hostilities, and enter more into new diplomatic initiatives, proposing a comprehensive approach involving direct talks with Iran?

He will need to address Afghanistan next. He will ask U.S. allies to join him in the effort, while many European countries are actively reducing their deployments in Afghanistan to save money.

But will this amazing thing that has happened in America make any difference to the world, to the children in Baghdad, Kabul, Beirut, Gaza, Teheran and all the other places in the sight of American guns – unless that difference takes place.

Let us all hope that this election will neither prove to be a necessary rotation of management, at the highest level of the Anglo-American elite, nor a matter of voting for the lesser evil.

The lesson is to ‘do what you got elected to do’! Let’s see that audacity in action!

“Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all they have.” H. Jackson Brown

Knocking on people's doors in Marsa, former Prime Minister Karmenu Mifsud Bonnici yesterday started collecting signatures for a petition calling on Parliament to take urgent action against illegal immigration.
As Dr Mifsud Bonnici and members of the Campaign for National Independence, which he heads, walked through the village centre two young women shouted out that the petition was a racist act.
After a loud exchange of views between one of the young women and a CNI member, where they accused each other of ignorance, the group continued knocking at doors.
Meanwhile, immigrants walked through the square of the village that is home to many since it houses an open centre.
Several people opened the doors of their homes and signed the petition. One woman signed the paper and then asked what it was about. Members also went to bars in the area to collect signatures.
When they stopped in front of a convent, a few women who had just walked out gave their signatures and a nun asked them not to sign anything on the premises.
The petition, written in Maltese, reads: "We the Maltese citizens ask the Maltese Parliament to take immediate and concrete action to stop illegal immigration in our country".
When asked how exactly he wanted Parliament to achieve this, Dr Mifsud Bonnici did not reply. However, he insisted the government was to take measures to stop illegal immigration.
"The majority, 99.9 per cent, of immigrants who come to Malta do not actually want to be here. So they don't want to be refugees here and it's absurd that Malta considers them as refugees once they themselves don't want to stay here," he said.
He stressed that if any immigrants needed saving at sea it was our responsibility to help out.
Asked if the petition could be interpreted as fuelling racist sentiments he said this was not the case. It was the arrival of thousands of immigrants on Malta's shores that was fuelling racist feelings among the locals, he said. By stopping these arrivals there would be no reason for these sentiments to grow.
The nationwide campaign to collect signatures for the petition was launched last week. After combing through all the streets of Marsa, CNI will move on to other localities.


L'ultimo Japponese!
Probably the last, real Nationalist in Malta.
He means well - but il-Karetta GonziPN will laugh in derision at his efforts.

The Times is a Zionist mouthpiece with a Zionist agenda.
Multiracialism is the goal of the Zionists : for everyone else, except themselves..
Character assassination and defamation, denigration of Patriotic Whites are Zionist weapons.

The Times of Africa has become a national security risk and has to be closed down. They have distroyed the whole concept of having a free press. The news has to be factual , realistic and correct. They think that they do what they like but times will change and so will their situation.

[etoile noir]

its not just venom, its crass ignorance!
anyone who has ever signed a petition - even one asking for white bread instead of brown (ohhhh racist :D) knows that you don't just "sign" a petition! you sign, give your name & surname, and at least ID number, if not complete address + tel numbers!

people just signed without looking..... ye right, pull the other one. you've dumbed down the population, but some of us still have 2 brain cells to rub together :mad:

This is where we have come to.
An ex-Prime Minister, in frail health doing strenous work on behalf of our People - insulted by fools.
A real Nationalist - not a Karetta GonziPN.

Those foolish young women, probably unwashed Graffitti -
can't understand that KMB is fighting for their future.
They have been blinded by the liberal poison : multiculturalism.

And they could easily walk into any police station and issue a querela against KMB.
Or even against JPO for that matter.
It is so easy with these "Racial Hatred" laws.

This is where we have come to - where the Hidden Enemy has pushed us.
For it was the Eternal Tribe that pushed these laws from behind the scenes.
One remembers that loathsome LAB, who issued a querela against me for writing an article on Maltafly : Gol's chutzpah!

The loathsome LAB - detested and loathed by anyone who has met him.
He has done more to turn Malta against his own Tribe, than anyone of us could ever have.
Indeed, they are their own worst enemies.

Immigration: KMB says Europe should boost its birth rate (http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20090713/local/immigration-kmb-says-europe-should-boost-its-birth-rate)


A petition by the Campaign for National Independence (CNI) calling for drastic action by Malta to counter illegal immigration has so far been signed by 25,000 people, CNI leader Karmenu Mifsud Bonnici said today.
He said that while the European economy needed migrants because of a declining population , the situation was different in Malta, which had a dense population and migrants were taking the jobs of the Maltese.
"The EU is encouraging immigration to make up for its shrinking population, and yet it is also spending large amounts of money promoting the use of contraceptives, therefore reducing its own birth rate," Dr Mifsud Bonnici said at a press conference. This, he said, was a paradox, and Europe should instead have incentives to boost the European birth rate.
He said the CNI was therefore calling for drastic action which included the immediate return to Libya of migrants in Malta, and a system to help migrants on their way to Europe, Dr Mifsud Bonnici said.
The first option was already being done by Italy, he said, and no human rights were being violated because Libya was not the country of origin of the migrants.
And there should be no problem with the second option once Europe itself was saying that it needed the migrants.
Migrants had not been arriving in Malta because of the success of Italy's new policy, Dr Mifsud Bonnici said, but that did not mean that the problem had gone away. For one, Malta still had quite a number of migrants which it could not cater for and should be sent back.
The petition is being collected across Malta and Gozo and will be presented to the Maltese Parliament.


Indeed, KMB is the last, real Nationalist left on the Island.
What he says is basic common sense - to which we agree in large part.
We wish him well.

It would be a good idea if we 3 had to be on a serious TV programme together.
The People would hear the truth - and nothing else.
The People have had enough of the cant of the two Lesbics.
