In reply to Helen Cassar. Back then, looking askance at a minister would put you in grave danger of a lynching and an arrest. Can you imagine calling Wistin Abela or Lorry Sant a fu**ing wanker to their face and live to tell the tale?

Besides the mass meetings, I had the unenviable misfortune of waiting for the midnight calls which announced that I had my surgery broken into, vandalised, or burned down.

The calls were made by the police whose station is only 100 metres away from my clinic in Zejtun.

These attacks happened always when a certain police sergeant was on duty.

No magistrate’s inquiry ever took place.

Franco Debono, an avid reader of this blog, should be told that the people of Zejtun suffered a lot and what happened in the past can reoccur because of the hatred that MLP leadership and propaganda machine is brewing and generating.

In my teens and twenties, instead of clubbing, I spent my weekends going from one mass meeting to another, not knowing if I will return home in one piece, or if I wll return home at all.

At 53, I wake up almost every day, thinking the same things that you do.

Today’s teens and twenties can argue and say whatever they like to the Prime Minister, face to face, or online. However, I just wonder if that is enough to make them realise the responsibility they have when going to the polls.
