Nope. The Labour leader will be visiting our Civil Protection Unit which has been giving humanitarian aid to the rebels and their communities.
So let me see if I get this straight. The PL says nothing, not a word, against Gaddafi's regime in the last six months. They never, ever, mention Gaddafi by name over this period. And when they do - just a couple of days ago - it is just to sheepishly agree with government to rip the medals we've given him off his chest.
Now that the last thing left for Gaddafi's regime to be made history is his capture or death, Joseph Muscat's idea of a good political move is to visit the Civil Protection Unit. What is the point of doing so now? The CPU men and women who have been doing sterling work would have appreciated Muscat's visit when they needed it, when the war was raging.
Now, that the war is at its very end, the visit is just a callous photo opportunity for the Opposition leader. And to call the press "urgently" for it makes it that much more callous.

Here is the underlying problem- Muscat, although he is academically accomplished, is way too young to lead a major political party. He is handicapped by his age therefore just lacks maturity that can only come with life's experience.
I can't see the people entrusting him with running the country where so much it's at stake.
He gives new meaning to the term 'dumb'. His shallowness is so offensive as to beggar belief. What's he doing sucking up to Libyans when he's in no position to deny, categorically or otherwise, that his party and the governments it misruled were in bed with their oppressor?
These people are incredible! They haven't changed a bit. They are like the Hydra - cut off one head and another grows in its place. The monster stays the same.

You're talking about a paunchy, balding, middle-aged man as though he were an adolescent.
Muscat is not 'way too young'. He's way too shallow and immature. At his (middle) age, there is no longer any possibility of acquiring the kind of experience that makes one mature. He is not 'handicapped by his age'. He is handicapped by his ineptitude, egocentricity, and chronic lack of insight.
We know that Gaddafi is truly finished when even Labour dares to turn its back on him, albeit reluctantly.
September will be one long month for Labour.
While Joseph Muscat meets the free Libyans, Joseph Sammut rushes to free more.
They're a pitiful sight.
