Fascinating. Not Joseph and Adrian, or Muscat and Delia, but Joseph and Delia.

Simon Busuttil was certainly not corrupt and he made it his mission to fight the blatant corruption we were experiencing. Unfortunately, the Maltese electorate couldn’t care less about corruption, which says a lot about us as a nation.

I have been a lifelong supporter of the Nationalist Party but cannot get myself to vote for it so long as Delia is its leader.

This talk of rallying behind the leader irrespective of which candidate we supported is absolute hogwash. One rallies behind an elected leader, even if one supported his opponent, only when the two individuals are equal in terms of the things which matter.

If one does not have faith in the elected leader of a party, then voting for that party would be the ultimate act of hypocrisy. I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I did.

Then and now. Nothing really changed.
