PN will once again have to clean up Labour's mess, Delia says
The Nationalist Party will not shy away from cleaning up the mess that Prime Minister Joseph Muscat will leave behind when he bows out of local politics, PN leader Adrian Delia said on Sunday.
Speaking at a party gathering in Msida, Dr Delia said the Labour administration’s policies and lack of long term planning had taken the country to the brink of disaster.
Prime Minister Muscat, he said, will not be around to have to deal with the fall-out, after having vowed to leave local politics after 10-years – a deadline that is fast approaching.
Dr Delia said the Labour Party’s plan for getting into office had been carried out just to allow a snatch-and-grab of the country's assets.
The consequences of today's actions, he said, would be felt tomorrow.
“The PN had never shied away from addressing the challenges and big problems, no matter how grave the situation. Once again we come before you, and say we are here to take the country forward and do what needs to be done,” he said to a round of applause from the party faithful.
