Perhaps the best way to describe the current political class which, with great misfortune, reigns over us currently is opportunistic materialism.

This materialism practically boycotted the highest claims of our Latin civilisation; purity, mere honesty and integrity, virtues which have been all but wiped out in contemporary political discourse.

The modern world has introduced the religion of praxis and productivity; it has put the quest for profit, great industrial production, and mechanical, visible and quantitative achievements over any other interest.

In opposition to this opportunistic materialism should be a spiritualism of an idealistic and chivalrous character which struggles against the powerful without fear. It should be made up of individuals who say that white is white, and black is black, without any redness in their face, and without the need to bow their heads or lower their voices in front of anyone when the right conscience convinces them of an injustice perpetrated to the detriment of the weak.

The life of man needs a spiritual element. While the liberal establishment wants to feed us with lies and silence us with euros, the national right, which locally finds its political roots in Mizzismo, the political ideas of Enrico Mizzi, sees that the greatest and highest sentiments of man are those of the spirit. Indeed, it was Mizzi himself, shortly prior to his death, who said that “the defense of our Religion is becoming more and more necessary especially because of a materialistic spirit which, so to speak, has invaded every social class of our islands and which is no less dangerous than communism”.

In relation to this comes to mind the slogan used by the current Prime Minister of Italy, Giorgia Meloni, during her electoral campaign: Dio, Patria, Famiglia, meaning God, Nation, Family. This is in contrast with the more generic political slogans which tend to be more administrative or economically oriented. Meloni’s slogan is purely spiritual in nature. To me, her slogan signifies a revolt against the reigning liberal elite which think only in terms of economics and labour and that refuse to accept the fact that man needs roots and a spiritual bearing.

In the local scene, our nation lacks an identity and its people lack a faith because our masters do not want us to have such potent weapons which we can use against the tyranny of multinationals which seek a liquid society devoid of any roots.

However, we forget that we do not need neither government nor Opposition to recognise for us that which we can recognise for ourselves; recognising that our nation needs an identity and that man has spiritual needs as much as material. But hundreds of years of political servitude, first under the Nordic coloniser then under the current political regime have bastardised us and made us unable to do anything without the approval of our benevolent masters.

All in all, it is up to us and only us to decide whether we want to either remain a people of servitude or to revolt against the modern world.
