29 September 2012 or 6 October 2012 is being mentioned as a likely date for the general election. Parliament will soon be sent into summer recess and parliament will be dissolved without reconvening it at the end of summer.
Following the new flare-up within the PN Parliamentary Group leading to the condemnation of the three MPs: Franco Debono, Jesmond Mugliett and Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando, with very little chance of healing the rift, the PN strategy team is telling Prime Minister and PN leader Lawrence Gonzi to call elections sooner rather than later.
Even those, like Minister Austin Gatt, who were pushing for an election in 2013, feel that the situation is getting worse by the day and making it more difficult for the PN to recover lost support.
This was discussed in the last parliamentary group held last week where MPs Debono, Mugliett and Pullicino Orlando were not invited. When called to attend the parliamentary group meeting several ministers made it clear that they would only attend if the three MPs would not be allowed to attend.

Ma tafux x'se tibdew taghmlu u sirtu qiskom klieb u qtates.Qed tixorbu medicina hafna iktar qarsa minn dik li sqejtu li Dr Alfred Sant. Sewwa jghidu li Alla ma jhallasx bin-nhar ta Sibt.

- Wed 27-Jun-2012, 20:37If nothing is going to be done to enforce new id cards then I am sorry to say that the PN are going to be in government for another 5 years. Many non residents are still on the Electoral register. Another alternative is to stop Air Malta from giving subsidised trips at election time, this will deterr them from coming to vote.
Tal misthija iss bil kemm ningharaf min fuq l-id ghandi it-tikmixx issa.

1. halli naraw x budget ha johrog bih sihbek Gonzi, ma jistax iwieghed kemm jista ghax issa hemm UE fuqu.
2. iktar kemm jaghddi z-zmein iktar qed jinkixef hmieg u tgerfix, u il qasma fil partit tal pn iktar tikber....

- Wed 27-Jun-2012, 08:39I come from a pure nationalist family but my first vote will definately go to Joseph Muscat. Joseph is the only leader who spoke clearly about hard issues such as corruption, illegal immigration and the justice sector. The PN just says that Joseph could be only words and no action. But my answer is we've tried the PN and we have witnessed no words and no action. Now let's try who is being 100% clear about his statements. We're fed up.

Qabel "il-flus mhux problema", issa "il-flus problema".
