Michael Briguglio, Alternattiva Demokratika – The Green Party Chairperson said, “It is with great pleasure to see that both Lawrence Gonzi and Joseph Muscat are ready to work with AD in Parliament.
“It was my pleasure to hold debates with them in the past week, and likewise, it will be a pleasure to have AD in parliament. We will act as a bridge between the parties, and we will put forward proposals which are very much needed in Malta. Our first proposal will be to ensure meritocracy in top public appointments through public Parliamentary hearings.”
Michael Briguglio added, “with 2,000 votes in a district, voters can make history by electing AD in parliament. I appeal to those who want the third party in parliament and to those who have not yet collected their vote to make history through their vote. On the ballot sheet, AD voters can also move on to their preferred candidates of choice from other political parties.”
AD spokesperson, Prof. Arnold Cassola, said that it was Lawrence Gonzi and Joseph Muscat themselves who were motivating people to vote Alternattiva Demokratika. “In the Times Leaders’ Debate, which included the participation of AD Chairperson Michael Briguglio, Muscat declared that he disagreed with holding a referendum on spring hunting whilst later Dr Gonzi responded that his party too did not want to abolish hunting and trapping in a referendum on spring hunting.”
Prof. Arnold Cassola continued, “when asked whether it was the right decision to introduce divorce Dr Gonzi answered ‘yes,’ thus confirming that Alternattiva Demokratika was right the whole way through. As for the dislodgement of the Armier squatters, Dr Gonzi said that he could not agree because of pseudo compensation issues, whilst Dr Muscat also agreed he would leave the squatters there and reach an agreement with them. With such answers on the part of the two party leaders, it becomes imperative for Alternattiva Demokratika to be in parliament.”
“Two thousand votes in a district from the people and after half a century, a new era of parliamentary democracy, transparency and pluralism would start.” concluded Prof. Cassola.
