PN raises €516,775 in marathon fund-raiser

The Nationalist Party raised €516,775 in a fund-raising marathon yesterday.

The marathon was held between noon and midnight exactly one month before Malta goes to the polls.

The Labour Party will hold its own fund-raiser today. The two parties also held fund-raising marathons in December.

Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi thanked supporters for their donations, saying the money will be used for the party to work even more in this electoral campaign for  Malta to have a secure future.

Malta gets over €1.1bn from new EU budget. Prime Minister Dr Gonzi was last to leave EU budget negotiation table. Hemm ara kemm gablek.

Waqt li il-Prim Ministru kien qed jahdem ghalina lkoll u ghal-pajjizna, Muscat kien qed idur mal-karijiet fil-karnival biex jigbor il-voti

PN is the party for everyone. An election costs money to the parties and it is obvious that PN does not have the same financial backing as PL. If I where you I would ask myself from where is PL getting the money and if this money is somehow related to the promise of a new gas power station which our country does not need; if such money is somehow related with the division of MEPA!

Sur Aquilina ma nafx ghaliex qed tinharaq daqshekk bil-kummenti ta' haddiehor? Ghandek ragun nahseb taqbez ghal-partit tieghek x'tiftah sidrek f'din il-kesha kollha, jaqw inti qieghed sewwa hafna ghax jina u l-familja tieghi m'ahniex, sa 7 snin ilu konna komdi mhux hazin imma issa gibtuna b'id wara u ohra quddiem. Issa ha nippruvaw lil Joseph li milli jidher huwa tajjeb hafna iktar minn Gonzi.

Why don't you ask a different question; that is why did those who news about the case of corruption wait until the eve of an election to make public this case of corruption!? Who could benefit the most from such a scandal on the eve of an election?

Then ask yourself; why not make it public before? SO NOW WE DECIDE EVEN WHEN BEST TO HAVE JUSTICE IN THIS COUNTRY? What kind of justice is that!?

Who is talking about Victory? PN had to raise money in support of the elector campain because they to not have the same financial backing as PL ... personally I am more alarmed by the fact that (1) PL seems to have plenty of funds (2) AF said that contractors are close to this PL (3) PL wanted to keep the meetings with the contractors secret (4) PL still did not tell us what was promised!!

Joe Aquilina is in for a nice surprise in a month s time... I doubt we shall see any of his senseless comments by then

PN already said they will do so! PL have been saying they will make public their accounts for years. Why not just do it? What are they waiting! PN made it very clear they will publish their accounts, with or without a law!!

The only people being taken for a ride are those who listen to promises of Joseph Muscat; then you look a little in detail in those promises and you find no substance!!

@Joseph Aquilina

Are you for real? On which planet are you living on? LP has been publishing its accounts for YEARS! It is the PN that never published their accounts.

anzi gew il flus! ghax li kieku ghal partit tieghek, xejn ma gibna! grazzi al PN gibna 2 biljuni bkollox! lanqas din ma tirrikonoxxu?

He said they will do it, so do not worry; they will do it. This is not PL; "paroli si, fatti no" (lots of words but no facts). This is PN, a party that always kept its promises, a party they always placed the country first, a party that had a vision of integration for our country, rather then a vision to make our country like North Korea!!

Why dont you ask yourself from where PL is gettng the money. Regarding corription we already know that only PN is credible on the fight against corruption. Joseph Muscat has no credibility on the fight against corruption. A mayor accused of corruption was kicked out of PN, Joseph Muscat gave him prime time on lejber media!!

Are you going to deny that?

Freddie ahjar ma tpacpacx! qabel taghmel statements bhal dawn hares lejn il PL u saqsi minfejn gabu l flus huma! jekk tohrog min dahrek, tinduna li ghal kull billboard tal PN, il PL ghandu 3 ! minfejn gabhom il flus? nerga nghidlek, tpacpacx ! il kumment tieghek huwa direttament ghal PL

Joseph Aquilina

It is not a joke; an election cost money and PN does not seem to have the same financial backing as PL. This is easy to note by the number of bill boards changed by PL and the number of bill boards changed by PN!!

Now, why all of a sudden PN have less money; Oh ... could it be that PN philosophy "country first" made them say NO to some people while lejber was more then happy to say "YES"?
