I keep being amazed at how the Nationalist Party leader, Bernard Grech, continues to be his own worst enemy in a political setting that is extremely favorable to his party. It’s as if the game is rigged in his favour on easy mode, yet he still keeps missing his targets.
Bernard Grech thinks that he is going to win the general election by pushing reductive and propagandist ic statements that supposedly should entice voters with enthusiasm with the new prospective Nationalist government. Lately, he said that if the government didn’t fund corruption, it would be able to fund energy subsidies.
That’s around ย2 billion in three years if I can recall correctly, which is quite off the ย30 million Joseph Muscat is being accused of stealing from the Vitals contract.
My point is that this is no longer the time for stupid and grandiose statements. The Nationalist Party should start getting a bit serious because things are getting real for it, yet it doesn’t seem to be getting it. If people really understand the state of the Nationalist Party right now, and the potential candidates who would be composing the alternative government, they may get spooked out and vote Labour Party just for the sake of keeping the Devil they know. The level of craziness that PN can bring may not be to Labour’s criminal level, but it may be equally if not more stupid that Miriam Dalli’s performance.
There’s some serious homework that PN needs to do on finance, housing, the economy, cost of living, energy, the environment, infrastructure, demographics and a lot of other things. This is not the time for ideas, either. PN has to come out with a proper and detailed plan for government because it’s probably going to get there very soon. This is no joke.
