Hi John, thought you were going to list all the unfounded criticism AD may have made…. We are in the EU, and nobody is saying Malta is getting out, except the PN spin. AD’s hunger for power is attested by AD declining EFA’s “offer” in the 2003 election, and being backstabbed at St. Andrews notwithstanding that such action risked EU membership. AD’s principles are evident, and can be deployed in inducing any MLPN govt, to really get to terms with Transparency and Accountability, notwithstanding that this will annoy the tycoons who finance the MLPN.

All I can say is that I saw Harry Vassallo angrily opposing the government in the public discussion on the UPGRADING of the Sant'Antnin project which is situated at the BACKYARD of the Prime Minister's private residence , together with Joseph Muscat , and others from the MLP .
What if the prime minister took the decision to remove the plant to HAL-Far , wouldn't it have been SCANDALOUS.
The siting and upgrading of the plant near the PM's private residence is a guarantee that he believes in what he proposes .
When Dion repeats the MLP's mantra that the PN has been there for two decades , he is forgetting the two years Dr Sant was in power and defending the MLPAD.Or was he Nationalist !
You can take a lot of time BUILDING but in no time anyone can demolish what you builtJust to tell you what damage can be done in a week's time he froze Malta's application for the EU membershipThat stroke of a pen put Malta ten years in the repeater class.(to use todays jargon).
AD are throwing their principles out of the window when they state that they can make a coalition with any party.They seem to look like a public convenience hungry for power.

Hi John, could you kindly list all the unfounded criticism that AD has made….have you really carefully evaluated what AD said about Sant Antnin? The PN has been in govt for 2 decades…thus it is obvious that more criticism is addressed to the govt….after all MLP do not say much... Unfortunately with all the categorical PN denials vs a PN-AD coalition, it is evident that for the MLPN duopoly it is not Dr. Sant or a Labour govt that is dreaded, but simply AD exposing and eroding the same MLPN’s absolute self-centered interests! Where are the EU priorities that are continuously trumpeted…hasn’t AD proved time and again that it factually champions EU principles and standards – even when govt tries to bend them?

Alternattiva's attacks are mainly aimed at the PN., it is appealing only to PN supporters and It was shoulder to shoulder with the MLP against the Sant Antnin upgrading Project.
It cannot be PNAD ; yesterday there was a categorical statement by Dr Jason Azzoppardi on Bondi+ ,and if our friends still have some doubts ,I ask them to read Rene' Rosignaud ' s resignation letter from AD.

Fair enough….but you seemed to have missed PNAD….or do you still prefer a straight MLP…so eventually you get another auto arrogant PN? Cheers!

Who said it has to be MLPAD? I could be PNAD. It's up to the electorate to decide.
