We should also remind the forgetful that the MLP and its leaders had been on a super negative campaign for 25 years. KMB had even wanted to demolish the Delimara power station. Alfred Sant and Joseph Muscat continued on that style of negativity based on lies and false promises such as a power station that refuses to produce any power at all.

In Newspeak, ‘negative’ means someone who criticises the Labour government’s corruption and wants justice.

We want justice and criticise corruption. We are negative. We are corruption negative.

Joey, Keith, Konrad and all that lot are positive. They are corruption positive.

We can battle with words too. And we need to pull the rug out from under this political aggression.
