Behind the fake unity talk, Delia’s political hypocrisy is louder than ever.
Adrian Delia wants us to believe he’s matured. That he’s “moved on” from the internal wars of the past. That today, he stands for unity, loyalty to the Nationalist Party, and that no matter who wins the PN leadership race — he and Alex Borg will walk hand in hand “stronger than ever.”
But words are cheap, and Delia has once again shown he cannot be trusted. Because behind the rehearsed interviews and carefully selected phrases lies the same Delia of 2018: petty, calculating, and obsessed with personal power.
Let’s not forget — Delia recently told the public that Alex Borg is “his investment.” Yes, his investment. Since when are leadership candidates in a democratic party investments? And more importantly — what does Delia expect in return from this investment if Borg becomes leader? A seat? A ministry? Control over the party’s media? Or simply to pull the strings from behind the curtain?
The audacity of this statement reveals everything: Adrian Delia isn’t supporting Borg out of belief or vision. He’s supporting Borg because he sees a potential pawn. A potential return on his personal political losses.
And then, in the same breath, Delia turns around and tells people he won’t work with Borg if he wins — and vice versa. So which is it, Delia? Do you support him, or do you despise him? Will you unite with him or isolate him? Because both cannot be true — unless hypocrisy is your only political doctrine.
The Maltese people deserve honesty. The Nationalist Party — crumbling under the weight of contradiction and ego — deserves truth. Not backroom deals. Not veiled threats. And certainly not shadowy investments made behind closed doors.
If Adrian Delia still believes in democracy, he should explain publicly:
- What return is he expecting from Alex Borg?
- Why he calls a leadership candidate his “investment”
- How he claims to support unity while rejecting collaboration if he loses
- And why anyone in the PN — or the country — should trust a word he says
Because right now, Delia is not running for leadership — he’s auditioning to be Malta’s most unreliable political stockbroker. And we’ve all seen how those investments turn out.
