The Times of Malta reports that Michael Briguglio is to be uncontestd and is expected to be confirmed Alternattiva Demokratika chairman at the party's annual general conference on Saturday The Times states that "Having militated in leftist organisations such as Graffitti and Żminijietna, Mr Briguglio's leadership is expected to shift the party to the left." Wasn't it AD always a leftist party? Mr. Briguglio's leadership will take the party from the left to the hard / radical left, and to be fair to him he's honest about it. Under his stewardship, the green cover of AD will be dispensed with - it will be red hot, Alternattiva will be "radical in its message" and the message "must not be moderate". Michael Briguglio is a Marxist, he has militated in neo-Marxist organisations. He plays in band called "Norm Rejection", He is a "university lecturer" who has graced us with "academic" works such as "The Communist Manifesto – Karl Marx’s Legacy to Humanity, pp. 23-39, Malta: Malta University Press" 
Anarchic Symbology 
Briguglio (lower right) proudly wearing a t-shirt with an image of his hero - Marxist mass murderer Che Guevara. When I John Spiteri posted a comment on the Times to see whether they will now be referring to AD "far left" if not Marxist, it remained unpublished, it got censored. To the Times it seems, only those who oppose Marxism deserve the title of 'extreme' or 'far' something. Now isn't that telling? I have a suggestion to Michael Briguglio and his supporters - given their obsession with deconformation and the rejection of the norm: They should perhaps rename AD to Alternattiva Dikonformista, the previous Demokratika is unlikely to appeal to the radical and unmoderate. other News.
