Gonzi calls on Muscat to name the contractors funding PL's campaign
Anglu Farrugia revelations once again come under the lense at Ghaxaq event.
Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi continued to gain political mileage out of an interview by Anglu Farrugia in the Sunday Times, firing off a few more broadsides at the Opposition leader.
Gonzi once again challenged Muscat to reveal who the contractors close to the Labour Party are, after Farrugia denounced the party's growing ties with construction developers.
"I want to know who the contractors behind the PL's MEPA and power station proposals are. The electorate has to take these revelations into consideration. Labour admitted that meetings take place with discontented contractors. Where is all their money coming from?" Gonzi questioned.
"Anglu Farrugia realised what he was dealing with too late. We are lucky in that we still have five weeks in which to realise. The Farrugia interview should be an eye opener to everyone. Not content with merely carrying out a political assassination, Muscat added further insult to injury by contesting on Anglu Farrugia's district", Gonzi said.
Gonzi also called the PL's electoral programme a "work in progress," and accused the party of copying a chunk of the PN's own initiatives.
A number of the PN's candidates contesting on the fourth district spoke at the event.
Victor Scerri said that whilst the PN is concerned with creating 25,000 new jobs in the coming legislature, Joseph Muscat is more concerned with getting 25,000 likes on facebook.
Carm Mifsud Bonnici, who is no stranger to political ruthlessness, fired a broadside at Muscat's ruthless sacking of Anglu Farrugia.
Mario Rizzo Naudi appealed to both parties not to use patients as a political football.
"For all his supposed concern for cancer patients, Joe Muscat was nowhere to be seen this morning at the Rainbow ward," Rizzo Naudi said.
