Apart from Muscat who seems to eulogize Chinese actions, I have just read another article in the Labour media which is full of eulogy for the Soviet Union, the Warsaw Pact and the regimes existent during that era. You have to read the article in Maltastar to believe it.

This guy is nostalgic of the “past good old days” under the Soviet Union during the Cold War. He is also full of eulogies for Putin and his methods, and full of despise for the “evil” west including Gordon Brown. No wonder that the MLP is in the pits together with the totalitarian regimes that its exponents so admire. Mind you, Maltastar is co-ordinated by none other that Alfred Ghrixti, a candidate to replace Jason Micallef

I suppose he thinks that our famous “Foreign Interference Act” was a brilliant idea back then.

Come to think of it I wonder if the MLP of the eighties would have allowed Internet in the first place!

[Moderator – They would’ve probably banned ‘l-Interxibka’ to ‘protect fishermen’.]

@ amrio

…and this from someone who boasts European credentials! I had to read the excerpt twice to check whether my eyes were playing tricks on me. Imma x’int tiskanta amrio? L-MLP kellhom ghajta shiha kontra l-‘Indhil Barrani’. This mentality can be clearly observed in their angry outbursts from their supporters and Apparatchi(cks (sic) just because we show a justified interest in the lijderxipp campaign.

Nice! Our MLP leader-in-waiting seems to be in love with one of the few remaining true Communist dictatorships in the world. His statements must be the only favourable that tye Chinese are getting currently.

Still a long way to becoming MLP leader and already supplying lots of juicy titbits for PN leaders to trash him with…. What an intelligent young man..

This blog is a perfect example of the MLP’s being all washed up as far as communications are concerned. The party’s way of dealing with comment and criticism here is to ignore it, hoping, perhaps, that no one will notice it. That sits oddly with Joseph Muscat’s admiration for the Chinese.

On another note, did you see Miriam Spiteri Debono trash the MLP electoral package in just 5 minutes on Smash TV?

What do u expect of the Ginger Goatee? This is his way of doing things.He feels a comfortable resonance with the Chinese who have oppressed Tibet since 1949. Interesting, he call its. And this man wants to become a PM at 39. What hogwash? He had better learn a lesson in humility first

What hope for the future of MLP! Dear future prime minister (whoever will that be) hands off the press please or will you be dictating what should be written about or not?

The other contender namely maria l-maws did not exactly show restraint when he was journalist/editor. If he set his eyes on somebody he would go after him and make him wish he was never born. (that is why somebody in this blog asked why the journalistic career of Ev does not feature prominently in his c.v. as i guess he is not too proud and doesn’t want to ruffle future voters’ feathers)
