Coleiro Preca calls for talks between government and opposition

Marie Louise Coleiro Preca, a candidate in the MLP leadership race, said this morning said that the government should be discussing more serious issues with the opposition rather than proposing a joint national conference for the next Workers' Day.

Notary Coleiro Preca said that the government should have discussed Malta's joining the Partnership for Peace programme and the fuel and food prices crisis, among other issues.

Notary Coleiro Preca this morning met supporters at the Rabat open market and later visited an Mcast fund-raising event.

Open discussions,open debates, open criticism,the spirit of competition.....Labour never had it so good,Malta had never before seen this kind of democracy where party matters previously considered sensitive are being debated in the streets and the media. A real good feel of fresh air. Hope the PN will follow this new way of doing politics. Well done comrades keep it up
