I do not feel that this madness and cruelty has had any effect on the so called &#039;liberal switchers&#039;. They voted on a single issue and do not care about the rest. 

You mentioned earlier that somebody like Kenneth Zammit Tabona would usually feel strongly about an issue like this. I could not disagree more - observing him how happy, jolly and comfortable he is with the MLP crowd and ministers at social events, I think he is aligned with their beliefs 100%, not only on the gay issue. 

He endorsed and is still endorsing everything that Joseph Muscat does. His silence on this issue is a clear sign of consent.

Perhaps the old Kenneth that you knew was simply a fake because it was convenient at the time.]]></description>

Attempting to get us out of the EU would be a grave mistake. Labour might have won with 36k votes, but they do not have a mandate for getting the country out of the EU.

They lost two elections and a referendum due to that issue and Muscat made it abundantly clear before the election that they had become a pro-EU party. We all know that&#039;s bullshit, but I still cannot believe that politically he would be able to get away with something like that.]]></description>
