The route to all evil
When I read that the road from Victoria to Marsalforn is to be made wider with most of the existing trees removed to make it comply with EU standards I must ask the question: is it to comply with EU standards or is it a way of getting money from the EU?
I think it is the latter; money seems to be at the route of all evil on the islands.
I own a property in Żebbuġ as well as living in Frankfurt, Germany with its population of circa one million and in the centre of the EU. We do not only have autobahns; most of our roads are not as large as the existing Victoria to Marsalforn road and we edge them with as many trees as possible. Added to this, we appear to have fewer road accidents than Malta and Gozo combined. Population one million versus 450,000.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Romelu Lukaku were handed small fines by the Italian Football Federation on Monday for their part in an on-field altercation during an Italian Cup tie in January.
AC Milan forward Ibrahimovic taunted Inter Milan striker Lukaku during the local derby quarter-final by evoking voodooism before the pair went head-to-head, trading insults with a furious Lukaku needing to be restrained by his teammates.
“A fine of 4,000 euros for Ibrahimovic, 3,000 euros for Lukaku, 2,000 euros for Milan and 1,250 euros for Inter,” FIGC said in a statement.
