The Nationalist Party leader’s political gaffes have no limits.

Knowing he is in a very desperate political situation, he keeps grabbing at anything that comes his way or is fed to him by his new deputy leaders. The latest one is the fairytale that Robert Abela and Ian Borg “are locked in battle” on who will take over from Joseph Muscat when the Prime Minister calls it a day and retires from the local political scene.

I believe this idea was not originated by the new PN leader but was given to Adrian Delia by Robert Arrigo, the deputy leader for party affairs. Arrigo has already made a name for himself for his fantastic new ideas, never heard before in Malta’s political history. Yoga and line-dancing sessions, turning the PN headquarters into a cinema and then topped up by Holy Mass for members only are just the beginning.

Only God knows what Arrigo has in store for us in the future.

I also believe that the idea to try and make diehard PN supporters believe that the “civil war” which exists within their party is also present in the Labour Party can only be the fruit of a very fertile and unique imagination, like Arrigo is already proving to be endowed with.

And still, Delia has swallowed this fairytale hook, line and sinker proving, once again, that he is completely out of his depth in Maltese politics.
