Is it a scandal that the couple who have had their images splashed on social media chose as their lawyer a person who has been described by a blogger as a Labour activist?
According to the blogger that’s why Joseph Muscat mentioned the case during a public speech in Mosta.
This is ridiculous. I am sure that had their lawyer been a Nationalist activist there would have been no reason why the Prime Minister should not raise the matter.
I remember former Cabinet minister Jason Azzopardi being one of the readers of the gospel recounting the passion of Our Lord and he was one of the best readers I ever knew. I know some people disagreed with it and I had no problem telling them I saw nothing wrong in that.
To return to the couple’s lawyer, does he not have a right to be a Labour activist or, perhaps, such right only belongs to Nationalist activists? But I do realise what the blogger is saying: that anything connected to the Labour Party stinks, just like it had been written, in 1996, that Labour women are recognised by their smell.
