In the election campaign, Michelle Muscat was reported as saying that she wanted her children to grow up remembering their father as the man who united all Maltese.
In 10 months, he has not only divided the Maltese completely but also divided Malta from Europe.
Two of his decisions have brought about arguably the profoundest division among the people of Malta and between Malta and the European Union: the push-back policy and the citizenship-for-sale scheme.
And the point has not been missed that the second undermines his demands for help with the first. If we don’t have room for non-paying immigrants then we don’t have room for paying ones, either. Both sorts take up the same amount of space.
Both of these decisions have caused serious damage to Malta’s good name. And in Malta itself, they have re-enforced that feeling of “us and them” which seems to be a fundamental element in the PL’s concept of government: divide and rule.
Is that really how Michelle wants her children to remember their father – as the man who sold passports to rich people while allowing poor ones to drown or pushing them back where they came from?

Has anyone noticed how Michelle Muscat has dropped out of sight?
Yes I noticed that she did not miss the Gozo ferry. She made it to the sister Island in good time to address a meeting about commerce, business and the likes for which, I have this hunch, she does not have the credentials
Oh, haven’t you noticed? Everybody has become an expert in everything suddenly.
I wonder what she told the audience about commerce, business and the likes. What a joke!
As the hordes of Labour voters have proven, the apples don’t fall very far from the tree. I doubt their children will be doing any looking back in anger.
Rajt ma rajtx, smajt ma smajtx. While children were drowning on 11th October because Joseph muscat dragged his feet about authorising their rescue, mama Michelle was busy hafna organising a palace party for her Spanish princesses.
There are a couple of other things which come to mind, the first being the sacking of permanent secretaries practically on day 1
A very good comment
Why is Muscat so adamant about the scheme?
It’s certain he committed himself before the election.
Wrong on one count.
Paying ones take up much more space – that is if they ever appear over here. Those who come on boats have very little; those who buy citizenship will have the money to buy up huge properties in the most picturesque sites.
She was actually prophetic. He has managed to unite all of Malta and I’d add all of Europe in telling him that the selling of passports is an awful idea.
