Wenzu Mintoff

Dr Wenzu Mintoff incorporated all his answers in one:
This is essentially an internal election for an important post within the Labour Party where a choice has to be made by a restricted constituency of 900 delegates.
In my opinion the delegates have to first identify what the party needs in terms of abilities, character, political sense, that are required for the post and then they have to choose the right person according to those criteria.
More than contesting an election I am offering my services to the Party, I am indicating my willingness to contribute in an important role. It is up to the delegates to make their choice between several valid candidates.
The political strategy is the responsibility of the entire Party and not that of some candidate or other individually. No political strategy is discussed publicly.
