TELL YOUR PARLIAMENTARY DEPUTY THAT YOU WANT MALTA TO REGAIN INDEPENDENCE AND FREEDOM

By Dr Karmenu Mifsud Bonnici Chairman CNI

The great challenge that the Labour Opposition has in Parliament is whether it should go against the Constitution of Malta and vote in favour of the European Union Constitution. 

Because those Labour Parliamentary Members who vote in favour of the new European Union Constitution will be voting for the Constitution of Malta (made on the strength of a Labour Government), does not remain supreme in Malta on all the laws that bind us.

They will be voting in favour of the European Union Constitution which states that the laws that the European Union makes are superior and prevail over the Constitution of Malta.

It was because of this great challenge that the Labour Party has before it that prior to the last Labour Annual General Conference the Labour veteran Karmenu Sciberras, from Ħal-Għargħur, and myself, moved a motion that says that the General Conference decides that the Labour Opposition in Parliament should not vote in favour of the European Union Constitution that states that the laws made by the European Union are superior and prevail over the Constitution of our country.

This motion, which was not presented before the Annual General Conference because the Party decided to discuss the issue of the European Union Constitution after the elections for the Local Councils, is going to be presented before the Labour Extraordinary General Conference that is to be held in the middle of this year. 

After the Labour win of 12 March, the Party should have more courage that it has the popular support to implement that which the Labour General Conference decided on 9 November 2003.

At the time the Labour Conference bound the Labour Party so that even while it is in opposition, to work ceaselessly to overcome all the negative aspects of the membership agreement that the Nationalist Government made with the European Union and to see that the agreement with the European Union shall not be disadvantageous  and damaging to the Maltese people, especially the workers. 

The majority obtained by the Labour Party on 12 March agreed with the decision of 9 November 2003 of the Labour General Conference.

The Labour Parliamentary members who vote in favour of the new European Union Constitution shall be going against that decision of the Labour General Conference of 9 November 2003 because the European Union Constitution is renewing the Agreement, with all its negative aspects, that the Nationalist Government made with the EU. 

They shall also be approving the put aside the declaration on the neutrality of Malta that the Maltese Government made with the agreement that the new Constitution leaves out.

The Labour Parliamentary Members who vote in favour of the European Union Constitution shall also be voting in favour of the undermining of the welfare state built by Labour governments. 

Because the new European Union Constitution binds us to implement the neo-liberal policy that reduces the social services and pensions provided by the State
 
The Labour Parliamentary Members who vote in favour of the European Union Constitution shall also be voting against our country continuing with the policy of neutrality and active work for peace.

Because the European Union Constitution forces us to take part in a military alliance and follow a common security and defence policy built on the militarization of the European Union, that also includes the nuclear arms of France and England.
 
If the Labour Parliamentary Members do not agree with the Nationalist Government Members to betray the oath that they took to be loyal and faithful to the Constitution of Malta, the ratification of the new European Union Constitution will not be made by a two-thirds majority of all the Parliament and the Constitution of Malta will remain supreme and the Labour Party will maintain the right to fight against all that the European Union makes that will be against that which our Constitution provides.
