The Nationalist Party seems to have chosen its battle cry for the forthcoming general election - "Together, everything is possible".
Apart from making an appearance on billboards across the island yesterday, accompanied by photos of a smiling Prime Minister talking to people of various ages, the slogan was used repeatedly by Lawrence Gonzi during a political activity yesterday morning.
Speaking at Msida, the Prime Minister said that while the MLP believed in division, his party believes everything is made possible by working together. This would be his party's philosophy over the coming years.
"Do not let anyone discourage or belittle you. We are as capable as others and will remain so. If we work together, everything is possible. That is what we will continue doing," he reiterated as he closed the one-hour meeting that was also addressed by a number of election candidates.
One of the fundamental differences between his party and the MLP, Dr Gonzi said, was that since inception the PN had always had complete faith in people's abilities. On the other hand, the MLP suffered from an inferiority complex.
Although the country is waiting with bated breath for Dr Gonzi to announce the election date, he made no mention whatsoever of the upcoming poll.
But he criticised the MLP's own slogan - the promise of a new beginning - saying the same people were still at the party's helm and they were still belittling the country.
The MLP should apologise for the way it would have made the country lose out on EU funds.
Whenever the PN was in office, it had created better and more jobs, he said, calling on people to remember what had happened to the country when the MLP was in power. The MLP's solution to unemployment was the disciplinary corps where workers did not even have the right to be unionised.
Although this legislature was nearing its end, nobody knew what the MLP's policy for job creation was, he said.
The past year had seen the creation of over 2,200 brand new full-time jobs and about 3,500 part-time jobs, while unemployment had gone down by 1,000. There had never been so many people in employment in the country's history, he noted.
"We have given the country the respect and dignity it deserves."
While nobody was perfect, his party would continue doing its best to improve the country.
Dr Gonzi said it was not the first time the MLP had embarrassed Malta, including the time it froze the country's application to join the EU back in 1996.
"Remember, my friends, what happened a week after Labour was elected. They froze Malta's EU application and this gave way to two years of disasters - unemployment, factories closing, dwindling foreign investment."
On the other hand, foreign investment in the past five years had risen to unprecedented levels, despite the MLP putting spokes in the wheels.
Referring to the subsidised broadband internet scheme, described by Labour as a gimmick, he said Labourites were surely among the thousands of people who queued in Valletta on Saturday to fill in an application form.
They had done well to do so, since politics was irrelevant when it came to technological advances, he said.
