How Prime Minister Dr Lawrence Gonzi is able to appear on our news bulletins time and again, flashing his artificial big smile, after all the gaffes that he committed in the past legislature, is beyond the comprehension of thousands of clear-headed Maltese on both sides of the political spectrum.

It beggars belief how anyone with average intelligence and of an honest disposition can allow oneself to be fooled by the Prime Minister’s smooth talk, as he often cites populist principles and platitudes that historically were anathema to the PN of yesteryear. Principles and values that have also been recently betrayed with impunity, over and over again, on issues and problems that have been stalking this PN legislature since its inception more than five years ago. Hypocrisy and deceit are innate characteristics of the majority of PN politicians and it is these two virtue-less characteristics they often use with devastating effect to manipulate the minds of the Maltese electorate.

Allow me a final word of advice dear readers. Beware indeed how you cast your votes on the 9th of March.

Vladimir Cini
