Honest candidates??? my bloody foot.
1. Honesty must be tested and tested right WITH A WRITTEN DOWN PROGRAMME.
That translates into the candidate saying what he/she will do and what

I just returned from Goa - no sign of any communal
riots. It is perfectly safe to live there, even with
all those diabolical "Indians" who are pouring into
Goa, while you Portuguese Goans live elsewhere and
pretend to be interested in Goa. From Vagator to

Don't cause yourself an injury. Mario obviously does
not know what he's writing about. He's writing about
village life, when most towns in India were no better.
Visas in 1510? A de A didn't require one (even if they
were in the habit of issuing such) as he was invited
by Timoja.

It is not revisionist nostalgia - I lived there at the
time, so did a lot of people still in Goa. Ask the 70
and 80-year-olds who graduated through Liceu and the

Floriano,
My reference to Portugal as a third rate European
country was somewhat tongue-in-cheek. Let me assure
