FOR A JUST, MODERN, STRONG
AND BEAUTIFUL MALTA

Malta is heading into a new era, and it’s crucial that you take the lead. We’re aiming for a future where our communities are vibrant and genuine, not downtrodden and lifeless. A place where work pays and inspires our youth to make the country more beautiful.

Right now, things might seem bleak and discouraging. But even though I sometimes feel angry and frustrated, I haven’t lost hope—not even a little bit. Europe too can help in making Malta more beautiful. With my experience as the Secretary General of one of the four largest parties in the European Parliament for over six years, I know what we need to do to achieve this.

Robert Abelas bullying intimidation unworthy of a Prime Minister

Yesterday he decided to deride and belittle two professors in order to make his supposed political  points.

The first is George  Vital Zammit, who is guilty of writing the PN manifesto.

The second is Andrew Azzopardi, who dared suggest that student stipends should be reviewed.

I quite disagree with Andrew, and George Vital is a political rival.

But having strong divergences does not mean disrespecting the persons for that.

Yet this is what Robert Abela did.

When a Prime Minister, son of a former President of the Republic, acts in this intimidating way, why are we surprised that this country has generated so many bullying trolls?

The wording of the PN constitutional amendment on safeguarding the environment should have been better.

And definitely improved upon at committee stage in parliament.But that Joseph Muscat's Premier League and Bjorn Vassallo's MFA gang up together to state that safeguarding our environment "could be open to abuse, to the detriment of sporting activities” is preposterous.And today Robert Abela's declaration about his fear of foreigners using the courts to stop festas by quoting the defence of the environment proposal, is simply abhorrent.A Prime Minister stirring up xenophobic discourse to get some extra votes.

Today, 10 a.m., Valletta, in front of law courts

Prof Kevin Aquilina, constitutional expert, tells The Times:The government’s proposed planning reform will “dismantle the rule of law” and make illegal permits “unchallengeable”.The controversial bills will be “legalising a continuous state of illegality” and removing safeguards designed to allow people to challenge illegal developments.“The government is sending the message that everybody can violate the law with impunity, build whatever they want with no rules attached and cover their illegal monstrosities provided they pay a fine”.The bills are crafted “maliciously” in a way that will ensure that residents, NGOs and local councils “will be dispossessed of all the remedies they currently enjoy” to challenge illegal permits.“Citizen participation in our legal system will be nipped in the bud by removing the democratic element from the justice system”. He also objected to provisions permitting the Planning Authority to change planning policies without parliamentary approval, warning that it will result in “unelected Planning Authority officers having more power than parliamentarians”.To make things even worse, the present CEO of the Planning Authority is a proven delinquent, Johann Buttigieg, who was secretly taking orders from Yorgen Fenech on what lands to take away from other private citizens.The above are just a few reasons why you should be in Valletta with us today at 10 a.m ...

Today, 10 a.m., Valletta, in front of law courts 

Prof Kevin Aquilina, constitutional expert, tells The Times:

The government’s proposed planning reform will “dismantle the rule of law” and make illegal permits “unchallengeable”.

The controversial bills will be “legalising a continuous state of illegality” and removing safeguards designed to allow people to challenge illegal developments.

“The government is sending the message that everybody can violate the law with impunity, build whatever they want with no rules attached and cover their illegal monstrosities provided they pay a fine”.

The bills are crafted “maliciously” in a way that will ensure that residents, NGOs and local councils “will be dispossessed of all the remedies they currently enjoy” to challenge illegal permits.

“Citizen participation in our legal system will be nipped in the bud by removing the democratic element from the justice system”.
