A colourful interpretation of all the benefits you've enjoyed as a consequence of successful representations made on your behalf by other non-Maltese individuals to the European Commission / European Parliament in recent years.

Can't say I have noticed any!
The only thing that seems to have changed in the last 6 years is that you can submit form H without  the landlords permission or have the account put in to your name at a cost!
Form H as always been there, it was a case of agreeing on it being submitted with the landlord as part of the negotiations.
I am sure you will tell us of some other wonderfull things.

Sucking your big toe will be as effective. Most people have problems today and by the time your pointless petitions get anywhere they will have moved onto other countries already.

As a suggestion to anyone who have a real current problem it’s a fart in the wind

As a suggestion for those who want to form groups to own the multi year or decade long process to see things change like the rental association people did your suggestions are absolutely spot on. But that is not who you are addressing on forum Fionn so your constant trolling with petitions is a pointless waste of  time.

Given that you have evidently not ‘moved onto other countries already’, I am gratified to learn that you are still here to enjoy the benefit of successful representations made on your behalf by other non-Maltese individuals to the European Commission / European Parliament in recent years.

Fionn, what are these 'successful negotiations' that you keep talking about? I have yet to see any significant changes in the five and a half years I have been here.

Since you fail to explain about petitions help anyone with actual current problem shall we take it as a given that it does NOT help them with their current problems? As the expert in this field I would have thought you would take the opportunity to  explain the process that yields results with current problems via your chosen medium of petitions so we can all learn something and how that is better for a current problem than adjusting to reality on the ground?

As an example for you to tell us how a petition actually help. There is some problem the MT government is insisting on some non EU sanctioned process in order to get a ID. Someone needs an ID to start working and earn a living as employers insist. How exactly does a petition resolve this stalemate within a short period so someone can start working and earning. How is it more effective to the person in that position than guiding them through experience on how to get a ID in Malta so they can start working?

To your actual question - of course we are here benefiting from many EU things. However the biggest failure of the EU in modern times is to fail to make it clear to us British living in the EU what our rights will be post brexit.

Yes the British governments negotiators are useless however they do not need the permission of the British government to pro actively tell us what our prospects are for staying within EU territory post Brexit or to make clear contingencies or interim arrangements that they will let us stay while negotiations are ongoing. 

For a government that effectively throws its people under a bus - us EU citizens - I am not really keen to enumerate many advantages.

Brexit is a problem the UK made. Failure to safe guard EU citizens within EU territory is a EU failure.

A cursory Google search will disclose the changes you refer to.

Unless you are able to tell me what these 'successes' are how can I know what to Google, or do I search for 'imaginary changes to the Maltese system'

Google is a very effective search engine tool if one knows how to use it. Apart from that, I regret that I am unable to be of any further assistance to you in this matter.

So you are not able to assist by listing all the changes that have been brought about by petitioning successfully on our behalf?

Or explain how doing a petition helps anyone. What a waste of time.

Suggest we all report his posts for trolling.

Not sure whether it's he or she or dosn't really exist at all but just a troll as you say.

Fionn who insists on sending the most inane and useless advise possible to people facing real current issues. Continuously. Week after week after week.

While at the same time being completely incapable of telling us how his advise helps anyone in the situations he gives it in.

Plenty of threads over the years here where it’s made clear it’s helping no one and you can read up here. He deliberately gives pointless advice and cannot or refuse to articulate how it helps anyone.

So again, a lot of huffing and puffing but the EU will still be ignored in Malta and your information does nothing to help expats who will also be ignored or shown the door if they start quoting EU regulations!
