The Labour Party’s campaign for the European Parliament election has upped its tempo as a trailer constantly showing footage of Joseph Muscat and what the government has done has been set up outside the campus at the Malta College of Arts, Science and Technology in Paola.

Students attending the college are being bombarded with continuous propaganda in favour of the government, as fliers promoting the government’s work are also being distributed at the college. Some of them have been stuck to classroom windows and on electricity poles as can be seen in the photos.

Before the last election in March 2013, Labour had campaigned heavily at MCAST and the university, targeting the young generations.

In a statement, MCAST refers to The Malta Independent report stating that political posters were affixed inside the premises at MCAST Paola.

MCAST reiterates its position that it does not tolerate partisan political campaigning on its premises. Immediate steps were taken to remove the posters which were put up and measures will be taken to ensure that such an incident is not repeated.
