The doctors have a right to know

MEP candidate Marlene Mizzi made a lot of fuss in her Shut Up, You're Too Small (April 23) about a semi-satirical article which appeared in a PN paper.

Now this is a candidate representing a political party whose leader Joseph Muscat is on record to have given this comment to the New York Times on March 3, 2003 after the people of Malta democratically chose membership of the EU as against Labour's Partnership proposal in a referendum: "In a telephone interview, Mr Muscat also said that the structure of European Union government meant that a country like Malta doesn't have any type of voice'" ( www.nytimes.com/2003/03/10/world/malta-voters-narrowly-approve-joining-european-union.html ).

Maybe next time she puts pen to paper, Ms Mizzi will tell us how things have changed since 2003.

And while at it, she may care to tell us also whether she voted against membership of the EU in the referendum, whether she subscribed to Labour official policy that Partnership had won or whether she too, like Dr Muscat, had a change of mind, albeit five years after these events occurred. The voters have a right to know.
