Reminders of North Korea, each and every official being elected UNCONTESTED.

I do not think this was the case with the General council president, as Mr Bonnici was hardly helped by what seems to be a clan of lawyers. A good start for the famous 'open door' policy. We have to see less words and more action. Hope we have more like Mr. Bonnici as we need them

Am I missing something here? One runs for office uncontested? That is called a one horse race. Gaddafi ran that kind of race and won. Lawrence Gonzi ran that one man race and also won.Fidel Castro ran that one man race and also won. Simon Busuttil almost ran a one man race after Mario De Marco ceded and he also won. This is called a dictatorship in any other country. What is the use of having a race if there is only one participant? Are we missing something here? Ignorance is bliss.
