It is a pity that PN has come to this state where Gonzipn AND Austin Gatt's clique are reigning and controlling PN machine. It is obvoius that this sinking ship will go down to a deeper bottom if GonziPN clings on more. It is so very obvious that apart from these 3 people there are many others but none have the guts to speak openly about it especially since elections are so near.

PN hardliners are not see this and are currently confused into what the strategy should be. It is crystal clear now that GonziPN's latest comedy is to show a forceful hand trying to instill that their leader is still in control but of course he' ain't.

This strategy should have been taken earlier on and not now. Now it's too late!!

Jeffrey, do not even bother to waste your time with the clique...true they got the power (for now)...but you could just bring them down to earth within seconds in parliament after the holidays...you could and are the only one with guts and brains that could do it ...forget about the other rebels...they are both fickle, like the rest of their gonzipn colleagues.

Marthese, stick to your decision. JPO is now full of bluff. He should thank Joe Mizzi for saying what he said on TV as otherwise he would have had nothing to say. How come JPO comes out with all this information NOW? This must be a very strange coincidence or JPO has his own agenda to pay back RCC, and choose this particular time so as to “try and hit hard” I am sure time will tell. JPO you have lost the admiration people had in you some years back. I suggest you take a break and reflect on your political contribution then and now.
As for Franco, he also should just shut up. We had too much of him now. He himself choose to do what he did, abusing democracy as much as he could. Now very democratically he has been asked to step aside. In any case who will trust him? I never imagined a person could do so much wrong to HIS OWN colleague , so much as making him loose a job. Surely there was something else which Franco did not have the guts to mention.
Marthese you have the support of all true PN supporters.

Reading all this I get to wonder what is the real truth behind the attempt on RCCs life. Why did EFA act as investigator, judge and jury to the case? Why was the investigation kept so secret? Why was RCC given a large amount of money and Zeppi a generous Presidential pardon? I wonder who was being protected in this story was it the same people who were on the boat party mention above????

Is it collusion when one tries to speak to the person in charge, to protect him due to threats and attempt made on his life? Its called natural response to the situation one is in! .... So in this case, is JPO colluding with the LP since they will benefit greatly from this storm he himself has created?

Alex Cordina

Jul 14th 2012, 18:23

The more JPO talks, the more I see that he completely lost his plot and cannot substantiate his accusations, what an idiot sorry to say, wasting our country's time ....

Jul 14th 2012, 18:14

Dr. Jeffrey Pullicino, if at the point, GonziPN's party did not dare to use you, abuse you, make fun of you and throw you away in the dustbin after being of crucial help in electing GonziPN into government, now use your power in parliament to do what is sensibly expected for this country. It's my genuine view.

Of course gonzipn/RCC apologists would se nothing wrong whith what happened but level minded people can see that RCC had something on his mind when he contacted ex-labour ministers.

JPOS has no case. In whose interest is he doing all thi?. Surely not in the interest of thPN! Surely the PL has a lot to gain if the situation is prolonged. it is fair to ask if there has been any collusion between JPOS and the PL. Dr. Katrmenu Vella's satement points to such a possibility.

Pierre Vassallo

Jul 14th 2012, 15:17

Mr. Mizzi can you lease tell us whether you ordered an inquiry to establish why "the police went on the wrong boat"? Please don't tell us that you didn't have time, like your colleague Karmenu Vella did? stop this circus!!

Joseph E Briffa

Jul 14th 2012, 14:49

Incredible how the meaning of collusion is interpreted in the mind of some people! Requesting protection, especially in view of a previous attempt on one's life is, one would have thought, perfectly natural. Joe Mizzi was the Minister of the Interior at the time and so was the person to whom one would submit such a request. Was this collusion? Would it have made sense to address such a request to the nationalist shadow minister of the interior? By the same token, anyone who was in the nationalist camp in 1996-98 and submitted requests to any Labour minister should be accused of colluding with Labour. And would not this assertion be preposterous? . As for the allegation that RCC tried to have the Head of Security changed, this can hardly be called collusion, even if the allegation were true; indeed it is more like confrontation than collusion. Re JPO's claim that J Mizzi implicated RCC in alleged interference in the course of justice, one would be forgiven for asking why, if this claim has any truth, Minister Mizzi failed to take the necessary steps at the time. Indeed, if there is any truth in JPO's claim, it would follow that there was some sort of collusion between Labour and RCC rather than the other way round. I'm afraid that JPO has all but lost it. His behaviour isn't helping at all to improve his image. Seems that Alfred Sant had sized him up very well in 2008..

This is ridiculous. What a mockery. JPO's frivolous attempts highlight his lack of integrity.

It is obvious that JPOS is inventing. Even his own witnesses are disagreeing with him.

JPO is a true comedian. First he cries, now he calls for help. Grow up.

Nicholas Ellul

Jul 14th 2012, 14:21

Its about time we all called it a day and write off JPO as the country and especially Dr. Gonzi has more important matters to see to rather than waste his valuable time with someone like JPO.Now that the party agreed not to accept these three......as candidates for the forthcoming elections,in my opinion the case is closed and lets move forward,this is all being done with bad faith from the MLP who is in collusion with whoever is putting spokes in the pn wheels.Nazzionalisti all this will make us stonger.

George Sciberras

Jul 14th 2012, 13:57

Now three of JPO's witnesses spoke and it's evident that there was no collusion by RCC with labour officials. For a minute I thought I was reading Don Quixote.

How exactly did Joe Mizzi confirm that RCC colluded wit high MLP officials? It's very evident why JPO is now avoiding to abide what he had agreed to with the Party. The PN gave him ample time and he failed to collaborate.

Joseph Cauchi Senior

Jul 14th 2012, 13:26

The more I read and read all that JPO is alluding and the way of answering and replying to e-mails to the PN Executive President, the more I realize that he must be in a conundrum and doesn’t know if he is coming or going!

One of JPO’s allegations is that RCC has been ‘colluding’ with MLP Ministers in 1996-98!

This is quite surprising and one begs the question who is really colluding with whom?

Is it perhaps JPO’s method acceptable to talk (not colluding, of course!) with Joseph Muscat, Karmenu Vella and Joe Mizzi but not RCC when talking (colluding) to his Ministers?

The deeper one digs the more difficult to get out!

A political party that is willing to serve honestly its country will need to find a balance between internal organisaion and dedication to the National interest. In my opinion we have seen our present Government bother exclusively about its interests and has done all in its power to retain power above any other interest.

There is a lot to be said about this, the PN surely needs to be replaced even by my grandmother if necessary, so that it can recover its true values of identity and purpose. In My opinion, Dr Gonzi's legacy will be one of maciavellian shame, even if he had to deal with the super egos of a couple of guys on his side...

VENDETTA, and this is how it goes in my mind as i see it, JPO must have information that RCC told Alfred sant about the MISTRA scandal, PN supportes him all the way, and this is what you get. Alfred sant was right, well he always was right.

We are told the LP is providing protection ?? to JPO so what was so bad in RCC asking for protection ?

. I am sure his case was serious enough .

The more JPOS speaks and writes the more he is being sucked into the storm he has created with all the collateral damage possible for Labour.

The moment Joe Mizzi was mentioned as a witness in this farce I immediately realised that the allegation would centre around the manner in which the Sant administration ordered the removal of RCC's police escort. As a matter of fact the escort was removed only to be re-instated after the intervention of the Ombudsman. If that was collusion than meaning of words is fast changing.

The allegations about the attempted removal of the Head of the Secret Service and the cocaine party on a boat are breaking news on the same lines of the Air Malta allegations.

Joe Mizzi is known as being one of the most fearless and outspoken members of parliament on the Labour side and hence I find it particularly strange that these two veyr serious allegations ( had they been true) are only seeing the light of day in 2012 when they occurred before September 1998.

Why is Joe Mizzi making these allegations now and did not use them in the 1998 Election campaign, or in the EU referendum campaign or during the election which followed shortly after? Furthermore does Joe Mizzi realise that his statement in connection with the alleged cocaine party directly implies a dereliction of duty on his part as it is clear that no action was taken against the alleged interference by RCC?

I honestly feel that the time has come for JPOS not only to be delisted as has thankfully happened but the PN should seriously consider expelling him outright from the party as it is now becoming clearer than ever that he is the one colluding with the opposition to foment problems with the Nationalist Party.

Francis Saliba M.D.

Jul 14th 2012, 11:33

According to Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando's twisted logic a request by Richard Cachia Caruana, to MLP notables that he be given police protection following threats to his safety is tantamount to disloyal colluding with the MLP against the Nationalist Party! Absolutely unbelievable.

JPO has no chance whatsoever of GonziPN's Executive giving credence to any testimony which he provides, since his accusation against RCC is also considered to be an indirect accusation on Lawrence Gonzi, Eddie Fenech Adami and GonziPN since RCC has been,for at least 21 years, THEIR MASTERMIND !
