Down to earth

Simple as ABC is a new blog run by a true socialist involved with the media ready to expose the big boys. He is a well travelled down to earth bloke and a true believer in 'the little person – the guy on the shop floor on the lower step of the long, long ladder'. His view is that petty political quarrels obstruct development opportunities for the Maltese people:

The Maltese have been bickering and scratching each other's eyes out over politics for generations! Which is fine at grass-roots level - but when it comes to the business end of Maltese life, that's a different story. That's where opportunities are eroded and the final product from a creative point of view is wrecked because the guys with the purse-strings are wriddled with political cancer. And, much to my deep personal regret, that's where the ordinary Joey in the street really suffers and suffers badly.
