The Nationalist Party’s Youth Movement (MZPN) yesterday criticised the irresponsible language used by Malta Labour Party MP Silvio Parnis.

MZPN said that while speaking on the party’s radio station, Mr Parnis had referred to the Nationalists as “malicious”.

This attack by Mr Parnis, said MZPN, was the result of an inheritance of property issue in which Mr Parnis was involved.

MZPN said that it was concerned that the attack came from an exponent of a party that is aspiring to govern the country.

The movement said that it expected an apology from Mr Parnis.
