UPDATE: Joseph Muscat Meets Ex MLP Leader Dom Mintoff

Less than a week after he was elected Labour leader, Dr Joseph Muscat on Thursday met Dom Mintoff, the former Labour leader and Prime Minister of Malta.

Earlier this week, Dr Muscat invited Perit Mintoff to a meeting at the National Labour Headquarters, in Hamrun. Yet, on Thursday, the former Prime Minister informed Dr Muscat that due to his current health condition, he preferred to have the meeting at his home in Tarxien.

In a brief comment to maltastar.com, Mark Farrugia, Labour's Media Executive, confirmed that Dr Muscat and Labour secretary general Jason Micallef met Dom Mintoff on Thursday morning.




Since he was elected, Dr Muscat repeatedly insisted that he will be working to bring back to Labour all those who drifted away from the party in the last years. "Go out and tell other Labour party supporters who did not feel comfortable in the party in the last years that the door is open. I will go to these people myself to bring them back. To the people who have never been part of our Labour family, tell them... this is your home," Dr Muscat said on Friday, a few minutes after the results of the Labour leadership election were announced.

The Labour leader has already invited former Labour MPs and former Labour ministers to attend his first rally at the Labour Headquarters, last Sunday. Some of those who accepted the invitation




On Monday, in an interview to the national television station's current affairs programme Bondiplus, Dr Muscat said that he does not agree with those who give the impression that Labour's former leader and Prime Minister Dom Mintoff never existed. While it is true that during his time in office, some mistakes were made, as happens with any leader, at the same time under his governments, the country made great progress.

Dr Muscat has already apologised for all the times Labour acted wrongly, or hurt the feelings of other persons. Yet, he made it clear that he will not put aside the great achievements which Labour made for Malta. The public should be aware of Labour's achievements in the past, so that they will be able to appreciate Labour's rich history.
