We swedish do like our snus, but paying 60 m Euro is way to much to bribe a single person? I want it but not at any cost! Have you trie snus? You UK fanatics!!

I know what it is; hardly used by British and your post doesn't make any other sense. It's too oblique for my understanding. :/

Snus' sale is illegal in the European Union.

Spot users by their dirty brown teeth.

What is it?

Snus (pron.: /ˈsnuːs/; Swedish pronunciation: [snʉːs]), is a moist powder tobacco product originating from a variant of dry snuff in the early 19th century in Sweden. It is consumed by placing it under the upper lip for extended periods of time. The precursor of snus, the dry form of snuff inhaled through the nose, was introduced in Europe much earlier. Snus is not fermented and contains no added sugar. Although used in a manner similar to American dipping tobacco, snus does not typically result in the need for spitting and is different from naswar in that snus is steam-pasteurized.

Yes its a Swedish tobacco product! I was more reflecting over that it seems possible to suggest a 60m bribe if you are a Maltese politician? The political corruption on Malta seems more or less ligit?

Very dodgy subject. :|
What never ceases to amaze me is that everything seems to be politicised. Just about any news topic, especially in The Times of Malta and the comments they print ('cos they do not print all of them)seem to degenerate into a political squabble.
People seem to lose sight of the aims and objectives of whatever initiatives or appointments are made.
If it's not politics then it's the Church or Arriva.
