Meet the Faces Behind Momentum’s Election Bid

As Malta gears up for its next political chapter, one party has already started turning the pages. Momentum Malta, the centrist political party, has unveiled its list of candidates for the upcoming election. But who are these individuals vying to shape our island’s future? Let’s look the faces, the stories, and the promises behind Momentum’s election bid.

From Diversity to Familiar Faces

Momentum’s candidate list is a mix of the familiar and the fresh. Party leader and former MEP, Alfred Sant, leads the pack, his experience in politics a beacon of stability. But it’s the diversity of the other candidates that truly catches the eye. There’s the young, dynamic lawyer, Alex Perici Calascione, ready to bring a new perspective to Parliament. Then there’s the seasoned educator, Maria Deguara, who promises to bring her wealth of experience in education to the political arena.

And let’s not forget the local faces. Take for instance, Marthese Portelli, a long-time resident of Birkirkara, who has been actively involved in community initiatives. She’s not just a candidate; she’s a neighbor, a friend, a familiar face at the local market. Her inclusion in Momentum’s list is a testament to the party’s commitment to representing Malta’s diverse communities.

Policy Promises and Local Concerns

Momentum’s candidates are not just faces; they’re also a bundle of promises. Sant has been vocal about his party’s commitment to tackling Malta’s housing crisis. He promises affordable housing solutions, a stark contrast to the current market dominated by luxury developments. Perici Calascione, on the other hand, has been championing the cause of environmental sustainability, pledging to make Malta a greener, more eco-friendly nation.

But it’s not all grand promises. Momentum’s candidates have also been listening to the concerns of Malta’s communities. Portelli, for instance, has been vocal about the need to improve Birkirkara’s infrastructure, particularly its roads and public transport. She’s not just talking about it; she’s been out there, listening to residents, understanding their struggles, and promising to make a difference.

Momentum’s Malta: A Vision for the Future

So, what does Momentum’s Malta look like? It’s a Malta where everyone has a roof over their heads, where the environment is a priority, where communities are heard, and where the future is built on sustainable, inclusive policies. It’s a Malta where the political scene is as diverse as its people, where experience and fresh perspectives coexist.

But Momentum’s vision is not just about policies; it’s also about people. It’s about the young lawyer who wants to make a difference, the educator who wants to shape the future, the neighbor who wants to make her community a better place. It’s about the collective power of these individuals, each bringing their unique perspective to the table, each committed to building a better Malta.

As we stand on the cusp of another election, it’s not just about who we’re voting for; it’s about who we’re voting with. Momentum’s candidates are not just names on a list; they’re faces, they’re stories, they’re promises. They’re our neighbors, our friends, our fellow Maltese. And they’re ready to lead us into the future.

So, who are you voting with? The choice is yours.
