LAWRENCE GONZI: Yes, it is unfortunately, which is very unusual for us, you know, the Maltese are typically very welcoming and over thousands of years we have been successful because we have managed to welcome with open arms different cultures, different traditions.

 Lawrence Gonzi won't call early general election, defends Tony Abela
Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi ruled out an early general election to seek a new mandate after the string of bad results in local elections and European Parliament elections under his party’s leadership since 2004.
Gonzi said that the party will continue to examine the result of Saturday’s local council elections, adding that it is apparent that from the first interpretation it results that PN suffered a loss due to the low turnout.

In 2005, Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi and his government repeatedly insisted that the solution for Malta’s tourism industry is the advent of “quality tourists”, and these can only be attracted by turning a large area of natural land at Xaghra l-Hamra into a golf course.
While Dr Gonzi is now boasting that his government has paved the way for the largest national park in Malta at Xaghra l-Hamra, in 2005, during his Budget 2006 speech, he defended his golf course proposal.
The report presented by Dr Gonzi makes it clear that in order to be financially feasible, government will have to give all the land to the developers for free, and refrain from charging any rent for the first 10 years.

While Lawrence Gonzi’s backdrop of greenery and young party councillors inspired serenity, Sant’s plainer backdrop – with its “New Beginning” slogan and a static picture depicting a smiling family – was definitely corporate, but lifeless.
Although the word “family” was mentioned 16 times by Gonzi and 48 times by Alfred Sant in his longer speech, neither of the two political leaders mentioned divorce – a civil right granted in all countries of the world except Malta and the Philippines.
Gonzi’s delivery in the PN’s general council offered a sharp contrast with last year’s image of a grim Prime Minister defending the extension of development zones in the face of a green rebellion which saw thousands marching in Valletta against the infamous rationalisation.
