Heart surgeon Albert Fenech has been approved as a new PN candidate.
A faction close to Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi, within the Nationalist Party is undertaking an exercise to introduce new candidates and replace persons who have caused trouble during the last four years.
A case in point is the candidature of Albert Fenech, a surgeon, who will be contesting the tenth electoral district.
Fenech was one of the ten new candidates approved by the PN Executive committee last week.
The district is contested by a number MPs and ministers, including Robert Arrigo, George Pullicino, Francis Zammit Dimech and Dolores Cristina.
Apart from being earmarked as a charismatic figure who can attract new voters, Fenech is also being backed by the party to eat away at the electoral strength of MP Robert Arrigo who has openly criticised Gonzi's leadership.

Also by eliminating Robert Arrigo gonzipn hopes to get more candidates in local council belonging to Pulicino so that they have total control of Sliema. But no matter how Valid Profs Fenech might be arrigo has a sound power base and most probably it would be Pulicino and Francis who would suffer.

@ thorny
Why are you asking? Perhaps to be able to compare with what labour candidates are offering? By any chance is Franco Mercieca promising spectacles or contact lenses? Or maybe Manuel Mallia is offering defence in criminal cases? Stupid inanities wherever you post!

Hope there will be no charging for Pros Fenech 's home visits!
What wil he be offering beds in wards instead of corridors, skipping waiting lists, less waiting time, pillows, blankets at Mater Dei ?

Sorry to say but nobody can beat Robert Arrigo and Gonzi should have made him a Minister.And we need Mr Albert Fenech as a surgeon to keep on doing the very good work.
