"....the PN had issued a signed declaration by the 33 government MPs who had voted against the motion, saying that it was not true that anyone of them had any intention to vote for the Opposition motion."

IT IS CLEAR THAT THE DECLARATION BY THE 33 GOVERNMENT MP's WAS NOT TAKEN UNDER OATH. AM I CORRECT? IF IN THE AFFIRMATIVE THAN NATIONALIST MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT DR. JEFFREY PULLICINO ORLANDO WITHOUT ANY DOUBT IS TELLING THE TRUTH.

IT IS CLEAR THAT THE SIGNED DECLARATION BY THE 33 GOVERNMENT MPs WAS NOT TAKEN UNDER OATH. AM I RIGHT?

Nerga nghid li min jivvota mal-partit li tellghu jaghmel sew. Min jivvota b mod personali bhal Mintoff, FD, JPO u JM dawn kollha ttradew lil min ivvutalhom u jien ma nivvutax ghal dawn in-nies.

Jekk hemm 10 li ma vvutax kif hassew imma ivvutaw mat-team/partit allura ghamlu sew.

If what JPO is saying is a fact , he MUST give the names of those MPs who were expressing themselves in

favour of the PL motion. If however. he refuses to do so , HE IS A Chicken.

Jeffrey is now sinking by the second, even this buddies at the back-bench are challenging him now. A turncoat, stranded on his own.....................................his only place of refuge is Joseph's SKIP!!!

Is there any guarantee that JPO does not mention some names? Nothing can stop him.

So it's a shame that the public knows what's going on behind the curtain. The shame is that there is such turmoil not that it's comes out. La verita offende. It is about time that we know what kind of people we put in parliament. I am ashamed to have elected this government time and time again. Now I have enough to go by and give my vote to nobody. I have simply lost faith in both parties. They are both wolves in lamb's clothing.

"He mentioned an e-mail he had circulated to other MPs for internal consumption, which had been leaked."

Could be anybody and conveniently blame JPO, silly is the one who mentioned the fact.

Dr Farrugia also claimed that it was absurd that internal PN affairs had been leaked to the media.

He mentioned an e-mail he had circulated to other MPs for internal consumption, which had been leaked

Could be any body, could be himself, who knows the important thing is to through doubt on JPO. Let's not forget that an email for internal consumption by PBO ended on a PL's official mobile.

Stupid things happen you know.!!

If someone told me something in confidence, it would be very unethical of me to make it public, so on this I am with JPO.

If these MPs feel this way, they are doing a disservice to the electorate by not speaking their minds.

A. Cuscieri. Gonzipn stqar hu stess li l-politika tieghu qabel l-elezzjoni u waqr l-elezzjoni hi li jattakka l-hin kollu lil-Partit Laborista. Dan tista tisimghu kull meta jkun raportat xi diskors tieghu fuq it-TVM.
Kieku jista ukoll x;jiklu il-Laburisti jew Dr. J. Muscat jipprova imaqdar. Bniedem Redikolu fil-politika.
M'ghandux ghalfejn jistenna il-bini tad-dahla tal-Belt bie jinawgura hu. Dr. J. Muscat wieghed li jistidnu lil Gonzi PN biex jinawgura l-parlament gdid, it-tijatru bla saqaf u d-dahl tal-Belt.

What a joke of a party the PN is being transformed into. They lack the political and ethical disposition to call an election even at the risk of being ridiculed not by the opposition, but worse still from their own disillusioned members. Joseph Muscat had hinted a while ago that the more time the PN procrastinates to call an early election the more harm they would be doing not only to themselves (not a problem because nobody gives a hoot whether they vanish or not) but to the frail economy of this Island.

Henry Mifsud

Jun 26th 2012, 11:57

Rest assured that some of the 33 who signed the declaration are lying.
The dissent and discontent some of them spoke about even in public, let alone amongst themselves, is enough proof that JPO was not exaggerating when he mentioned the number 10 (whether this was hypothetical or not) !

A. Mifsud

The PN's clan is in dire straights. I can hardly remember a time worst than this in the Party's history. Every issue, every dispute opens a can of worms. Some motives are personal but most are politically motivated. I never stopped believing that the Gonzi vs Dalli rivalry could eventually bring the party to the situation it is in today. The party needs to stop, think and restructure itself from within. It needs a thorough clean-up. I'm sure that it will eventually re emerge stronger than ever before.

Former PN secretary Joe Saliba, was a very wise man. He saw this coming and resigned in glory! Eddie Fenech Adami was the man who come what may managed to keep the party together, because he was a true leader. Persons like the late profs. Serracino Inglot, who were the mentors and strategists behind the party remain irreplaceable. All this together with demise of Louis Galea and the same John Dalli, certainly did not help Dr. Gonzi to retain control within the party.

Dr. Pullicino Orlando, now you are in a fix and you have lost all your credibility. Meanwhile, having removed RCC from his most EU-wide respected position in Brussels with your help, the PL will be finding lots of brick walls in Brussles once it gets into the seat of power.

All the PL needs to do is just keep on digging itself into a deep hole from which it would not be able to climb out of. Pity that it will be Malta that suffers. We shall have 5 years of PL-power and then another 20 years of repairing the damage done during those 5 years. It's a game of sn_akes and ladders.

Dr. Gonzi, call an election, and let's start a brand new chapter with these self centered clowns out of the scene!

I sincerely wish to thank Dr. Pullicino Orlando for reminding me (if there really was the need) that one should never put ones thrust onto a politician and that politics is indeed filthy.
As Ronlad Reagan once said: I used to say that politics was the second-oldest profession. I have come to know that it bears a gross similarity to the first.

Meta kixef certu affarijiet interni tal-PN mal-media, JPO kien u ma ddejjaqx jaghmilhom.

Issa qed tmissu l-kuxjenza u lil dawn l-10 ma jridx jghid min huma? Kieku jezistu diga qal isimhom. It was just a bluff ... and now his bluff has been called.

Shamefully, you are trying your best to be more speculative and trying to be more vindictive as ever...as they said it is payback time....

M Farrugia

Jun 26th 2012, 10:05

Dr Pullicino Orlando declared he would not reveal the names. Hekk tghid l-ahhar sentenza tal-artiklu tat-Times of Malta. Jekk veru ghandu provi ta dak li qal bil-privilleg ma ghandux jibza li jikxef l-ismijiet meta mod specjali qed jigi mitlub minn shabu stess sabiex jaghmel dan. Li tghid affarijiet bhal dawn u minkejja li ghandek darek mal hajt sabiex tizvela l-ismijiet u ma taghmilx hekk l-indikkazjonijiet huma li jew mhux qed jghid il-verita jew inkella dak li qal huwa parti minn strategija biex juri li mhux qiehged wahda. Inti bhala rapprezentant talpoplu ghandek l-obligu u d-diover li tinforma lil poplu u mhux tinheba wara l-imunita parlamentari biex tivvinta stejjer li tkun hlomt bihom.

Franco Attard Trevisan

Jun 26th 2012, 10:04

what about showing the said sms of the 10 government MPs to only one person who is trusted by both parties with guarantees that the names aren't made public? If it is true that these exist and they would like to remain anonymous it's only fair to keep their names secret but on the other hand everybody has a right to know who is lying and who is saying the truth... these are very serious allegations and to be honest (and I am sure there are many people like me) I do not know who to believe.... Everything is possible and we have been seeing so many charades from both sides of parliament that I do not belive anything that is said anymore unless proof is presented.

Meta nisma lil nies bhal JPO jitkellmu kif tkellmu bil-privilleg tal-parlament l-ewwel hsieb li jaddili minn mohhi huwa li dan huwa parti mill-magna tal-proganda tal-Partit Laborista u xejn aktar. Il-konnessjonijiet li kellu u ghad ghandu ma nies f'dan il-partit li jistaw jinfluenzawh huma kbar.

Fleur Mifsud

Jun 26th 2012, 09:43

Kont nemmen li l azzjoni ta JPO kienet genwina kieku, kien ha jerga johrog ghal elezzjoni, u ghamel li ghamel b konvinzzjoni morali bir riskju tal konsegwenzi kollha.
Il fatt li kien jaf li mhux ha jerga johrog ghal elezzjoni hija prova cara li ma kien ha jkollu xejn x jitlef jekk jivvota kif ivvota.

Dan il fatt biss jiddistingwi l MP s min xulxin.
