We're just one day into the election campaign, and it seems that the two main political parties are already at each other's throats.
The first to throw a stone was the Labour Party, with a witty billboard to mock the Nationalist Party for its spelling mistake on the first billboard that the PN put up this morning.
The PL billboard shows the PN’s slogan “Flimkien għal pajjiżna” (together for our country) with the “għal” crossed off and replaced with “kontra” (against), changing the slogan completely.
It is accompanied by a face palm emoji, just to twist the political knife in the PN’s open wound.
The PN's reply was quick to arrive, this time with computer generated messages, super-imposed on another of Labour's billboards, which say that Labour committed its own mistakes: "deficit, not surplus", "Air Malta did not register profit", "Partnership did not win" and others.
One wonders what the next 33 days of election campaign will bring with them.
Meanwhile, the PN corrected its earlier mistake, and put up a new billboard with the correct spelling.
