The narcissism and sociopathy of Labourites

—

by

If by now you haven’t realised what a psychopathic and criminal organisation Labour has become then you are either one of those illiterate Labourites watching ONE on a daily basis, or you really need to read the news.

For those who have any sense left in their mind, they can see and understand how Labour Party politicians and officials, from young to old are drunk on power and have grown strong anti-social and sociopathic tendencies.

They lie every time about everything with a straight face, especially to ingratiate themselves with Supreme Leader Robert Abela. Here’s an example of this sociopathic behaviour by Rebecca Buttigieg, but this kind of scene is repeated all the time by these people. They don’t care except for saying the right words that would make Supreme Leader happy, even at the expense and cost of other people. They don’t care because they come first in their priorities.

They have comfortably accepted a propaganda regime of lies for years on end and don’t have any interest in changing this. They behaved the same way under Joseph Muscat, lying and saying the right things to the press about him, only to regret their actions during the 2019 crisis. But when a new leader came along, they went back to their old ways. As soon as they were given the opportunity to have some power, they once again became rent-seeking opportunists and conveniently forgot everything that happened in 2019.

This is typical behaviour of criminals. Criminals will squeal, apologise, and beg for mercy when they are caught, but if they are given the power, they would do the same things they did before. This is Labour today. It apologises when it is compelled to, but if it gets the chance, it will run roughshod over us with impunity as its members loot and pillage the State and whatever they find in the country.

This narcissim and sociopathy has deeply infected our nation, forcing people to turn against each other, dividing our very small society, destroying our relationships and social fabric in the process. Do you recognise Malta from 2013? Do you think it’s better? Not just in economic and material terms. Think of its soul and the relationships we had between us. We were much better and peaceful than we are today. Sure, I had the chance of going to prison for publishing “pornography”, but at least, I didn’t have Russian assets threatening me in public, I didn’t have to flee the country and my country was safe and people actually cared for each other. We cared so much for each other that many of us genuinely felt we were going to change the country as we united under Joseph Muscat’s “movement”.

Nowadays, there is no equivalent political movement that compares to those days, but instead we have desperation. Desperation to elect any government other than this criminal estate. Desperation of young people leaving. The desperation of the poor and who can’t afford housing. The desperation of people who are lost and don’t feel part of our nation any more. Labour is literally destroying the Maltese society and nation and infecting its soul with the darkest diseases possible.

Labour has damaged us to such an extent that it’s even very difficult to build back bridges. How can we build bridges with narcissistic psychopaths who sat through power as people literally died because of their corruption and recklessness? They said they were sorry for voting against the public inquiry of Jean Paul Sofia. They were sorry because we, the Maltese, protested against them and they were compelled to say they were sorry. If they are provided with the same opportunity, they will go ahead and vote with Supreme Leader once again. This is typical criminal behavior and character.

At this stage the narcissism has reached sickening levels. You can read Rosianne Cutajar’s comments online on “political propriety” and “ethics” as she genuinely believes that people don’t want her in Labour because she is a great asset for Labour. The delusion of these people has reached incredible levels, but this is not very surprising.

Many of these people in Labour who wield power like psychopaths and speak like narcissists is because after having lived insignificant lives doing nothing meaningful and learning no particular skills, immediate power increased their self-esteem overnight. They first lived shitty-lives and then suddenly felt special because their criminal superiors provide them with a well-paying job with the state. Labour is not creating a future generation of leaders; it is creating a future generation of rent-seekers and criminals with no understanding or concept of meritocracy, let alone justice.

Younger generations from poorer backgrounds are the worst hit by Labour’s culture of criminality and narcissism. The poorest sections of society will see that their best way to get ahead in life is to join Labour and become a mouthpiece for Supreme Leader. Labour is destroying whole generations of our youth.

We have no other choice but to fight back against the malaise in our nation. Desperation is not an option. The best conclusive solution has to be for the Nationalist Party to win the elections with a massive majority. If not, Labour will not get the lesson. If they lose by a small margin they will explain and rationalise their defeat by technical reasons instead of admitting outright that Labour’s soul is dead.

    It has been clear since the end of March 2013 that the Republic of Malta needs an alternative government. This is even truer now, 11th September 2024. Up to and including the leadership of the PN by Simon Busuttil I would have agreed with your conclusion. Now, I am fearful that you may be wrong. Yes, replace the endemically criminal PL now now now. No, to Bernard Grech’s and Adrian Delia’s PN too. The PN will be a watered down version of now. Mild and insidious corruption with an element of criminality – better than now but… We are human, we make mistakes, we have to eat etc. This will not put the criminals in jail. This will not right the wrongs of the past decade. This will not wash away the cynicism that is now in the veins of Maltese society. It will not take the population back to 400K. It will not make Malta a justifiable sovereign state and a full member of the EU. It will not give our young people the trust and hope that the future will be better. There are many very fine people still still within PN, wrap your arms around them and protect them, but they with Civil Society, and all Maltese of goodwill must, somehow, unite into a political force that is honest, clean and true. This grouping must include people of varied backgrounds and hues (e.g. Mark Camilleri and myself!). Young and old. Red, blue and whatever. Goodwill being the only pre-requisite. I have no more answers than this, sometimes we must go into a fight not knowing if we will win or lose but knowing, with certainty, that we are being true. (Discuss…)

      I was born under a PN administration, and despite certain flaws and scandals, most of which were overblown by the Opposition of the time, they were a lot of good initiatives like a new school was being built almost annually. And, I daresay, the scandals were not at all comparable to what we are reading about constantly and consistently about now, practically on a daily basis. Thanks to Mark Camilleri and others like him who sacrifice their time and, unfortunately, safety for this. I know what you are going to say, small scandals are still wrong, two wrongs do not make a right, and so on but if I had to judge on this alone I would say the PN has done a much job historically, at least compared to what we are witnessing now. I mean, for Gob’s sake, a journalist was blown to bits just uncovering some of Labour’s crimes. Simon Busuttil was an exemplary politician but some people found him to be condescending at the time (from what I heard). PN deserves a second chance as while no political party on this earth is perfect, from my personal experience what we are witnessing now is a living tragedy and anything would be better. Bernard Grech might not be your Knight in shining armour but at least he had no shady business deals with some of the worst criminals on these islands like certain people.

        @ Carmelo the Younger: Thank you for replying and making several interesting points. Please note that I was a staunch PN supporter, for much of the same reasoning you quote above, from 1976 – 2017. The scandals were very much different both qualitatively and quantitively. During the PN administrations of EFA and Gonzi there were cases of corruption of individual officers/ministers, it was not systemic. From pre-2013 through to now the corruption was systemic. It has been an integral part of the Road-Map to both run the PL administration as a criminal gang raping and pillaging the Republic of Malta. run from the OPM by Joseph Muscat and Keith Schembri. The quantitative nature was, and is, purposeful: Not merely as a group exercise in pigging-out but to purposefully overwhelm the general public – oh, another scandal, I can’t even remember yesterdays scandal. Simultaneously the purposeful taking over of all state institutions with corrupt Labourites. Police, Army, MSS, Courts etc etc. State capture by a criminal gang known as PL, but really it is the continuance of the Mintoffian Malta Labour Party. There is no moral equivalence or honest comparison with Eddie Fenech Adami and Lawrence Gonzi: Both honourable men. Human. Liable to make mistakes but totally clean of corruption. Joseph Muscat and his gang are murderers of Daphne Caruana Galizia. They are the gangland intimidators of honest Maltese. They are the thieves and rapists of Malta. Simon Busuttil was, and is, a man of the highest integrity. He would be a credit to any country as he is a credit to the EU now. The vilification that Simon and Kristina suffered was nothing short of bestial – typical Mintoffian Labour Party – no rules, no morals totally destroy the opponent but any means possible, murder in the case of DCG. Adrian Delia’s election ensured that I could never support this party with him in the room. Adrian Delia is a low-life bum whose call to fame was legally protecting the Bajada pimps of Sussex Gardens in London (now The stables Bar), brought back into the fold by Bernard Grech, whose Birkirkara FC background and legal practice put him in close contact with Chris Cardona. Adrian Delia is the offspring of the MLP/PL criminal gang. We cannot equivocate with such people. The PN still has many fine people: the Acquilina brothers, Mark Sammut and Jason Azzopardi – these are honourable and brave people. Busuttil and Metsola deserve better than Malta – their life is in Brussels, where they are fulfilling their talents, doing good for the EU and quietly helping Malta. They are bright, brave, clean people of integrity with strong backbones. Manuel Delia and Mark Camilleri and others have literally put their lives at risk – Mark is regarded as an apostate – regarded as an apostate worthy of death. He is in danger from the MLP who see him as a traitorous apostate. He is brave and has a will to confront his fears in search of the truth. We must protect him. Mark and Malta will not be protected by electing a self-serving little person like Bernard Grech who opportunistically joins the rancid Adrian Delia in expecting to win an election by default. We must vote. We cannot vote for a little gangster to replace a big gangster. The Augean Stables need to be cleaned. What we do, how we do it, why we do it, when we do it is not clear but do it we must. Future generations will ask us: Where were you? What did you do? Why did you do that? Could you have done more?

      Some people have repeatedly told Mark to do this with his posts, but I still think it is a bad idea. Unless I see some data which proves otherwise, I don’t think there is a great pool of people which remains unreached because of a language barrier.

      When they really want to, the illiterate and semi-literate still find their way to the comments section of Times of Malta and Daphne Caruana Galizia’s blog (she corrected their comments for grammar because she wanted to keep her comments-section classy).

      The really important point to understand is that many people who publicly berated Mrs Caruana Galizia did not have the knowledge to understand what she was saying, and they were not open to understanding because ONE TV, l-Orizzont newspaper and other Labour-leaning propaganda outlets had brainwashed them too hard to understand. What difference would it have made if she had translated every post into Maltese? It would have wasted more of her time while giving her practically nothing in return

      Mark (and his team? Does he actually have a writing team or does he write everything himself?) is amazingly productive. It would take great amounts of time, effort and expense to also write (or translate) good articles in Maltese (digital tools for writing good Maltese are practically non-existent), and it remains very unclear to me what the reward will be.

      If the potential readers are, as you say, illiterate, they can probably read Maltese as well as English (which is to say, very little or not at all). So where is the benefit? More than the language, they also have to be intellectually curious, which is the issue Mrs Caruana Galizia used to point out when people used to tell her to also write in Maltese (you cannot turn a L-Orizzont believer into a hard-data analyst)

      I love reading in Maltese. [As an aside, I am currently reading the novella ‘Frejp’ by Clare Azzopardi, which I bought simply because I saw sitting so small and lonely (a single copy) in a book shop, and which I thoroughly recommend].

      Similarly, I would like to read more well-written news and contemporary writing in Maltese, also to improve my (admittedly deteriorating) spelling in the language. However, I do not expect any news outlet which has focused its resources on producing English-language, and maybe internationally-minded, content to also make the time and effort to reproduce its product in Maltese. The reward for the person, company or organisation is, to my mind, simply not worth it.

      Maltese-language content is a linguistically, culturally and socially worthy product, but, until resources grow immensely, Mark should probably keep breaking news and daily posts in English. Podcasts, videos and books remain more practical as Maltese-language vehicles, as media consumers seem to be more accustomed to this type of content in Maltese. Things may change in the future, of course, but you have to realise that you are asking a lot from what is essentially a one-man (impressively productive as it is) show.

        Exactly, difficult to make money in Maltese with an audience of just 400,000 people and I fully fund myself, so writing in Maltese would be a death wish. This is something the government should help with and condition the press accordingly through its government funding.

    Forget the Nazzs being an alternative government. They will give us more of the same if not worse because these people have always been beholden to the Maltese business cabal. They are dysfunctional even in oppositon simply because they are owned by the local business and criminal network. When Simon Busuttil, Gonzi’s special delegate critisized the award of the ITS land in St Julian’s to the DBs. Silvio Debono quickly shut him up when he told him publicly that DB was paying his slalary and that of the PN’s top brass at that time. If it was not for a handfull of journalists, NGOs, Republika, constituted bodies and common citizens like Isabele Bonnici, there would be no opposition in Malta
    It turned out that JM’s strategy for the labour party was to step into the Nazzs shoes and follow suit. With the help of Keith Schembri he acquired a foothold into the network of the cabal and devised the euro 700 m infstructure budget as the cheese to lure all the classic traditional rats to support and join the movement. The Labour party as we knew it is no more. Even in opposition now they will be rendered dysfunctional because they have shared too many beds and ate too many forbidden fruits. Apart from the rethoric and theatrics there is no actual difference bertween the two major parties now. Politicians of both parties are aware that eventually our economy is heading for a major bust so they have embarked on a selfish reckless strategy to insulate themselves and their families as much as possible, so that when the inevitable happens they will remain high and dry.

    I re-watched the Lovin’ Malta video found in the linked-to blog post ‘Remembering the Banality of Evil’ and it still shocks me to my core as much as the first time I watched it. I actually wept as I re-watched.

    Here stands a grieving mother asking for a small, inexpensive, morally right and perfectly justifiable favour from the representatives of the people who sit in government, but not a single one of them could say: “You know what? I think holding a public inquiry would be a great idea. I will vote for it. Let us make sure that the death of your son is never repeated again as far as we can help it. I think the people of my district whom I represent would appreciate me voting for this inquiry to take place and I think it is morally the right thing to do”.

    It is simple and uncomplicated logic. I think the nation would have fawned over any government member of parliament willing to do that, but, curiously, nobody did. One of the evil idiots even told Isabelle Bonnici to contact him if she needs anything. She had just told him what she needed in very clear wording and which he could have easily voted for and he had rejected it.

    Presumably, he said that phrase reflexively after repeating it so many times during political campaigns, which shows you how worthy the ubiquitous pre-elections “G?andek b?onn xi ?a?a?” question really is (the answer might actually land you in court or prison if you think you are innocently asking for a bit of help with social security or your driving test, but that’s another matter).

    For me, the public-inquiry vote into the death of Jean-Paul Sofia remains the litmus test of political decency. All bar none of the government’s MPs spectacularly failed it. In my lifetime (and maybe since independence), I cannot think of a time when government has stooped so low. At least Daphne Caruana Galizia got the chance to make public enemies before she was killed. At least Israel can claim that it’s at war and bringing hostages back home is more complicated than family members of the hostages think.

    In Isabelle Bonnici’s case, there was no ambiguity, no complication. Ms Bonnici became an enemy of Malta’s Labour Party just because she would not shut up about the unnecessary death at a construction site of her only son Jean-Paul Sofia. The only interested parties the Labour government could be protecting by rejecting her request for a public inquiry are the (allegedly) illegal builders of the construction site he was killed in, and apparent kidnappers, money launderers and cocaine dealers, yet all government MPs went along and voted against the grieving mother’s request.

    One could have, for example, expected the Minister of Finance Clyde Caruana (who sometimes tussles with the prime minister and boasts about “not campaigning” because he is not a political beast) to have easily taken the decision to vote for the inquiry but, nope, he just disappeared. Maybe Chris Fearne (Minister of Health at the time and allegedly an enemy of the prime minister)? Nope. Not a single one. Not even a backbencher whose fifteen minutes of fame may come only by starting a rebellion. Nope. Nobody!

    It makes you almost nostalgic for (the utterly vile and opportunistic) Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando declaring he is in favour of divorce against his prime minister’s wishes. Not even opportunism could move any government MP against a deranged prime ministerial position, which shows that all opportunity presently lies with grovelling for the Supreme Leader.

    This brings us neatly back to Mark’s original point, which is narcissism and sociopathy in the Labour Party.

    I hope that future opposition political parties will bar anyone who voted against (or could have voted in favour but decided not to turn up) a public inquiry on the death of Jean-Paul Sofia from becoming President of Malta. These people do not deserve public office at all, let alone to represent us as a moral, decent, democratic, humane nation governed by the rule of law,
