Girgenti - Are we serious? Michael Briguglio

Following today's Girgenti meeting, Labour's parliamentary group gave unanimous support to the Prime Minister for “all decisions he will take” after a “free discussion” in which all MPs participated, according to a Labour Party statement.

Unless this is face-saving PR through which Muscat has been constrained to declare that he will resign imminently, this statement looks like another example of Muscat-speak: All praise for the great leader, giving him time to scrape to the bottom to protect the gang of crooks whilst he remains in power. 

I think it is more a case of the latter. I hope I am wrong. 

In the meantime, the call for Joseph Muscat to resign imminently is growing within civil society, and there are signs of increased unity within the Opposition.
