Nationalists who agree on selling citizenship
I’m still confused as to why the Nationalist Party is still insisting that it agrees on giving out Maltese citizenship to foreign investors. There’s something deeply wrong with the Nationalist Party if its youth don’t even subscribe to its most fundamental principles: a problem that is surely shared by the Labour Party. In Jon Mallia’s…

The consequences of breaking bicameral consensus on defence
Despite the fact that I find young politicians toying with serious matters they know little about as insufferable, I need to remind new readers, that the result of this infantile tit-for-tat on defence is the direct result of the Prime Minister’s total disregard of a bicameral consensus on defence that existed for decades. It’s Prime…

Darren Carabott doubles-down (on a training mission)
Darren Carabott has just given a press conference with Beppe Fenech Adami and Mario de Marco. In the press conference, Darren Carabott said he isn’t entering into the merits of the mission, but insisted on demanding answers about Malta’s participation into The EU Military Assistance Mission in support of Ukraine.

Darren Carabott, like Labour, thinks that Defence is some kind of political joke
Updated with Darren Carabott’s comments. Darren Carabott: “The question about Malta’s participation in EUMAM UKR was raised yesterday in Parliament during questions to the PM. On the other hand, the interview with Saviour Balzan on Xtra was pre-recorded on Tuesday 18th. The issue was not yet revealed and not mentioned on Xtra. On Xtra I…

Home Affairs Minister Byron Camilleri fails to show up at planned debate with Shadow Minister
Riddled with a history of cover-ups, dysfunction and outright political abuse, the Minister for Home Affairs, Byron Camilleri would never withstand a debate against his Opposition spokesperson and Shadown Minister. The officials at the Labour are probably very much aware of this so they, along with Supreme Leader Robert Abela would probably discourage him to…

The Nationalist Party condemns yesterday’s assault on the police
The Nationalist Party has issued a statement signed by its Shadow Minister of Interior, Security, and Reforms, Darren Carabott, condemning yesterday’s police violence. On the other hand, the Minister, Byron Camilleri, cannot afford to issue condemnations, given his responsibility for the ever-deteriorating dysfunction within the police force. The Partit Nazzjonalista condemns violence against Police officers…

Joe Giglio has been removed from his role of Opposition spokespreson for Home Affairs
The Nationalist Party has made its own reshuffle, probably as a strategic response to Robert Abela’s pseudo-reshuffle. More importantly, PN’s reshuffle is significant for removing Joe Giglio as spokesperson of Home Affairs and replacing him with Darren Carabott, currently the chairman of the Public Accounts Committee. Darren Crabott’s performance at the PAC has been nothing…

No, it’s not just an issue of communication
I’m glad that the Nationalist Party is discussing what the hell is wrong with it. We have long been repeating ad naseaum why the PN can’t make inroads with the electorate while the Labour Party is in meltdown. Here’s a quick reminder: 1. PN is too conservative for the society of today and tomorrow This…
