“What we definitely do not want is to have young people who cannot afford to study because of financial problems in their families.”
“PL is the natural home of all those who are united in favour of change in Malta, and he pledged to fight for social rights against all odds, just as “our forefathers” fought for so many rights that are often taken for granted.”
“Labour had to attract those people who might not necessarily have voted Labour in the past. We have to satisfy not only the principles but also the primary needs of the Maltese people in health, education, and civil right”
““You (the government) are not denying me anything by not giving me the €500 increase per week, like the Minister and Cabinet were given. I said from day one I would donate the money. You are denying the money from the charities which would have benefitted.””
“Families should also be given the necessary benefits. But the government had its priorities wrong and instead of finding money to help families overcome burdens, it was spending €100 million on the City Gate project, it was building a bridge to nowhere at the breakwater and it had given cabinet members a €500 weekly raise.”
“Family policy, was not to beat on one's chest against divorce, but to create the right socio-economic circumstances to help families stay together”
