‘My word is a contract’: Borg rallies PN supporters in Mosta

MOSTA, Malta – The air was thick with anticipation at the Mosta Sports Club on Saturday evening. The Nationalist Party (PN) faithful had gathered, not just to celebrate their party’s 75th anniversary, but to hear from their leader, Bernard Grech, who had a message that was as clear as it was concise: “My word is a contract.”

PN Unity on Display

Mosta, a town known for its grand Rotunda, was abuzz with PN supporters donning their party’s blue and white colours. The unity was palpable, with supporters from all walks of life – from young party activists to seasoned politicians – coming together to mark the milestone and look ahead to the next general election.

The party’s anniversary celebration was a homecoming of sorts for Grech, who hails from Mosta. Born and bred in this town, Grech’s roots run deep, and his connection with the crowd was evident. He was greeted with cheers and applause as he took to the stage, the party’s logo projected behind him.

Grech’s Message: Trust and Honesty

Grech’s speech was a testament to his leadership style – straightforward and honest. He spoke about the need for trust in politics, a sentiment that resonated with the crowd. “My word is a contract,” he repeated, driving home the point that he intended to lead the party and, potentially, the country with integrity and transparency.

Grech also touched on the PN’s vision for Malta, promising a party that listens to its constituents and works for their benefit. He criticized the Labour Party’s governance, alleging that it has led to a lack of trust in institutions and a decline in the country’s reputation.

to the Election

The 2023 general election was a recurring theme of the evening. Grech, who took over the party leadership in 2020, has been working to rebuild the PN’s image and regain the trust of Maltese voters. The upcoming election will be a significant test of his leadership and the party’s prospects.

As the evening drew to a close, Grech left the stage to the sound of cheers and the party’s anthem, “L-Innu Malti.” The message was clear – the PN is ready to fight, and its supporters are ready to follow.

As Grech himself put it, “We are ready to lead. We are ready to win.”
