Joseph Muscat, leader of the Labour Party, has just returned from Libya. Holding a press conference on arrival at Luqa airport, and flanked by the international secretary Alex Sciberras Trigona, he told us that he was given access to a treaty signed between Libya and Italy regarding illegal immigration. It has since transpired that this "secret" document was posted for public viewing on the internet over a month ago. The text of the treaty was also carried in a leading Libyan newspaper for all to read.

The Labour Party has, to date, never divulged the text of the "military" treaty signed by Dr Sciberras Trigona on behalf of the Labour Party and the North Korean regime dictator Kim Yong-il some 25 years ago. Now that would have definitely been classified as "breaking news"!
