Prime Minister Joseph Muscat said that the only and real important statistics will be those published after 3 June. When asked on the polls being published by the independent media, Dr Muscat said that the real polls will be those on 3 June.

Prime Minister Joseph Muscat told the people of Kalkara that he had just visited the Enemed site where the dismantling of oil tanks finally started. He said he was impressed when they told him that the tank being dismantled was set up in 1919. The crowd cheered as the Prime Minister said that the Labour Government wants to bring fresh air to the south of Malta.

"All of this is coming at a time when we shut down the Marsa and Delimara power station," he said.

Speaking at a political activity this evening, taking the shape of an interview, Dr Muscat said that you don't only need proposals to win an election, but you need principles. "You need clear proposals and our principles are cast in stone."

He said that the PN leader had fought with all his might against the IIP citizenship scheme, but today said that he would alter it. "Unlike him, we are consistent," he added.

"If, three years ago, we were not strong to keep the IIP programme in place, we would have to wait 28 years to make the resurfacing of all roads pledge."

"We are 28 days away from Election Day, and there is a lot of work to convince everyone that the way forward is with us," he said.

Mario Mizzi, an entrepreneur and an election candidate for the PL, said that these four years were like Christmas days. "Every day was like Christmas day. At no point did we complain that business is slow," she added.

PL candidate Fleur Vella gave a very colourful intervention. "You switch the TV on Italian television and can see the people complaining on the failed economy. They complain even more than the Natioalists," she said as the crowd laughed.

"The PN knew the EU budget it had in 2006, and did not spend half of it by 2012. What were they waiting for? Why were they starting down at the money?" she asked.

The government will set up a campus for start-ups, Joseph Muscat announced. "We want to invest in these new ideas and help with getting this business abroad," he said.  

"The proposals we are putting forward are costed, are studied and realistic," he said when referring to the €700 million investment in road resurfacing.

The microphone was then passed to the new PL candidate, Jeanclaude Micallef. He thanked the single mothers in the area, "you gave Simon Busuttil the deserved reply," he said. "South will choose Labour, but Labour will not only choose south. There is a big difference between the real man here, and Simon Busuttil who pretends to be a man. He is not even a gentleman with his own workers," he added.

"Joseph Muscat chose me, let's all chose Joseph," he concluded.
