In reply to butterfly. Obviously not to let their listeners hear the truth.

In reply to J. Agius. Amen to that. Dr Busuttil literally kept me glued to the TV throughout his speech. Hope he keeps up this momentum. He gave the goverment the trashing it so deserves.

Simon Busuttil spoke on facts, not perception. Simon Busuttil and his team worked hard to obtain the right information on the ministers.

The MALTESE NATION deserves better. This is not a transparent government and it is led and controlled by a bunch of sangisugi. The facts and figures Busuttil gave are very worrying.

In reply to John. It would be a good idea to have a video on line, so many people missed it and are now asking where they can see/hear it.

Maybe finally those people out there who keep whining that Simon Busuttil is not the right person to lead the PN will realise that he IS the right person for the job.

I have believed this from day one but people are impatient.

He has a different style to his predecessors and to what we are used to, but yesterday was the culmination of his hard work and perseverance against all odds.

Excellent speech and excellent delivery which left the motley crew on the government benches gobsmacked, including Muscat. We live in hope.

I was never a big fan of Simon Busuttil’s however listening to him last night has changed my opinion completely.

He did such a good job – I only hope he continues on this path. I cannot wait to hear what Muscat has to say in response to last night.

The facts are there in black and white there is no running and no lying the people know the truth so it will be very interesting indeed.

In reply to L.Gatt. Issa la beda r-rotta żgur li se jibqa' sejjer. U b'Dr Busuttil fit-tmun is-sewwa se jirbaħ żgur.

Yesterday’s speech delivered by Simon Busuttil in Parliament was excellent proof of the current disastrous state of being of both the Labour Party and government, particularly Muscat’s chaotic approach to his not-fit-for-purpose ministers.

What impressed me most was the silence with which the parliament was listening to what the Leader of the Opposition had to say. He was voicing what the People had to say – and deep down all the MPs knew he was spot on.

So no interruptions except for that mistake regarding Minister Joe Mizzi’s sister in law.

Towards the end of the speech, when he was listing the government backbenchers and ministers and highlighting their salaries and wrongdoings, there was dead silence. The government MPs were left wondering whether they were next on his list.
