@ Carlos Bonavia: The NP should be looking at ‘meeting’ the equivalent of at least 60 voters a day for the next five years, for safe cover.

Why do I feel the process hasn’t yet kicked off? and that when it does it will have a lame flavour?

M’hemmx li jaghmluni Papa mela.

I’ve had it from a switcher who seems fairly ‘in’ with the emperor’s crowd, that even if Joseph made a major ” mistake ” on each and every day of the week, the LP will still win the next elections.

And if Simon and the Nationalist Party don’t shake off their apparent rigor mortis and wake up from their sonorous interlude, I’d make that the next two elections.

Ma tahsibx li ‘i-klikka hamra hija ferm akbar minn dik blu. Bin-nuqqasijiet taghhom in-nazzjonalisti huma angli hdejn dawn. U ‘l-kbir ghadu gej.

Maybe they’ll win by handing out favours (that’s the only logical reason I can think of for voting Labour) but no one will be able to deny that they blatantly went against almost everything they said in their campaign, and that they are the real ‘klikka’.

It is up to PN to cure the people’s long-term memory problem by being an aggressive opposition. I’ve always thought Labour to be much more aggressive than PN.

As for the brain-drain, I don’t mean to sound arrogant but I don’t believe that someone could be both a genuine Labour supporter and an intelligent person.

If she is the same one it goes to show how under PN, people were promoted on the basis of merit and not political leaning. She was a Unit Manager with MEPA and moved to the Environment ministry a couple of years ago, as well as lecturing part-time at university.

I don’t think so. I have a feeling that most of the Maltese voters will let Malta down in 5 years’ time as they did 2 months ago.

Perhaps the difference in votes won’t be so significant but nonetheless, still sufficient for a Labour win.

All Labour need to do is to give out and/or promise favours and amazing projects in the last few months before next election, whine about how they could not complete/start the promised projects because of the mess PN left behind and how they thus need more time, and practically bank on Maltese voters’ selective and lack of long-term memory.

All of what is going on now shall be forgotten and any reference to these events by the PN will be termed as scaremongering and being negative.

I can see it happening.

I just hope that these ridiculous appointments and handouts won’t lead to another brain drain. I can only imagine how frustrated the many qualified and competent individuals in Malta must feel (regardless of their affiliations) watching LP acolytes get jobs they are not fit for, while the former are not even given the chance to apply for the position.
