So far, the Nationalist Party’s position and statements on Chris Fearne and the scandal of the smear campaign against him have been weak to say at best. There’s definitely something reluctance from PN to go on the offensive against Chris Fearne right now, and it may not be just about the fact that Chris Fearne is currently at loggerheads with Robert Abela. It may also have to do with the fact that the Nationalist politicians have serious challenges to fight him given that despite all his faults and culpability, Chris Fearne still tried to do the right thing. That’s a very different political battle from fighting an organised criminal who is blatantly protecting other organised criminals.
So far, the strongest criticism I have heard of Chris Fearne comes from Manuel Delia. Things, gradually are now starting to make more sense even with the prospect of having Chris Fearne become Prime Minister. If PN can’t come up with a decent offensive plan against Chris Fearne, we may very well see PN veterans like Manuel Delia and Jason Azzoaprdi become active once again in PN. PN will be needing all hands on deck if it is to fight a Labour Party with Chris Fearne as its leader because their battle will become by far tougher.
