Beppe Fenech Adami forced to turn down Xarabank invite

Beppe Fenech Adami livid at being asked by Party to turn down Xarabank invite.

PN backbencher Beppe Fenech Adami, one of the party’s strongest opponents of the introduction of divorce, has been asked not to appear on tonight’s edition of Xarabank.

Beppe, son of former PN leader and President emeritus Eddie Fenech Adami, was told by the PN’s higher echelons that the anti-divorce campaign would risk being tagged to his father’s legacy.

The party, which has taken an official stand against divorce, does not want to risk bringing out Labour’s core vote in the referendum by fielding Fenech Adami and expose the closeness between Eddie Fenech Adami and the anti-divorce camp.

Party insiders say Fenech Adami was livid at news that he was being advised not to appear on Xarabank, which today will field members from both sides of the pro- and anti-divorce camp.

Instead of Fenech Adami, who was originally lined up for Xarabank, the anti-divorce camp will field Anna Vella, the chairman of the Church’s Cana movement.

Beppe Fenech Adami has already stated that even if the referendum passes. he will vote against the
introduction of the law rather than vote against his conscience.

Look who is talking. Another wolf in sheep clothing - a politician with values - religious one none -the-less.

It has been stated how couples are humiliated when recounting personal sexual details to Church tribunals in annulment processes. . Considering the speed with which some cases were settled, while others took decades, I wonder whether these tribunals apply the same measure to everyone, or simply look at faces, as is the custom with everything in Maltese society, especially the last twenty two years.

Beppe, mhux ahjar tispjega kif familtek gabet tlett annullamenti mill-knisja halli anki ahna wkoll ma jkollnix ghalfejn nivvutaw favur id-divorzju. Int u missierek imisskon tisthu tidhru quddiem il-poplu malti. Specjalment missierek li kien l-aktar prim ministru li gab firda u diskriminazzjoni f'dan il-pajjiiz.

Beppe, Infakkrekk ftit x'kien jghid missierek fuq i-cukkulata MARS. Kemm hemm zmien fejn din ma kienetx tithalll tithol Malta biex tinghata spinta lilll prodott lokali. U kien jaghmel plejtu Missierek u c-corma tieghu li l-poplu impossibli jghix bla cikkulata Mars. Il-Poplu ma jistax ma jkollhux cikkulata Mars u jkollu immur barra minn Malta biex iduq bicca cikkulata Mars u jgib minn barra bicciet tal-Mars biex iqassam il-qraba teighu Maltain! Kemm kien ihambaq Eddie u kemm kienu jcappulu sakhemm fl-ahhar sar Prim Ministru u bdiet diehla ic-Cukkuilata Mars......... u issa kullhadd jiskansa ghax jippreferu cereal Bar mic-cikkulata ta' Eddie! Bhal bica cikkulata Mars ghamluh id-divorzju, ghal Maltin ta' Malta LE, ghal barranin u min issiefer IVA! Mela nivvottaw IVA hallu kull min jixtiequ issibu! X'tahseb Beppe?

Beppe int min ghalik li int xi haga fil-partit u lanqas is-sahha ta' missierek ma kienet bizzejjed biex int DEMOKRATIKAMENT tidher fuq Xarabank. Forsi dawk ta' Ta Xbiex hasbu li ahjar li il-familja FENECH ADAMI tant ipprivelligjata mil-Knisja toqod fil-genb. Uzawk bhal lummija u wara iddumpjawk il-Maghtab.

The deviant State /Church legislation introduced through the backdoor by FenechAdamiPN in 1993 is an other miscarriage of democracy in the annals of Maltese political history. All this trouble, all this emotional and religious crusading and blackmail, throws back Malta 60 years; the PN thrives in this scenario. All bona fide Maltese liberals should be aware( should have been aware) of PN leaders( past and present) bearing the' liberal' gift. Those who are responsible for this mess should rot slowly in hell.

If Eddie Fenech Adami says divirce is not good for you - then you know you should go and vote YES!

@ josef I agree with you so even the pl are all without b**** because that they didn't send anyone

Dizzonesta assoluta mil-Malta Today ghax skoprejna li anqas il-pl ma halla lil xi hadd imur fuq Xarabank

Ara kemm hawn gurnalisti f'dan il-pajjiz. kieku xi hadd saqsa lil kurja kemm bil-miktub jew bil-fomm, (jekk dejjem ghandhom l-informazzjoni korretta) Li X ha anullamnet ta zwieg fi zmien xaharejn, jerga jizzeweg u wara snin jerga jiehu annullament iehor. Igri jaghddi dan ir-referendum ghax vera tqazzizt. Il-poplu Malti kien ghadhu u jibqa maqsum f'kollox. Min joqghod jilghab bi diskors, bi zokkor kollu ghalxejn. Hekk ser jibqa dan il-poplu maqsum f'kollox. hekk joqghodu dar igergru , jew fi triq iparlaw fil-vojt jew hekk. il-Bqija jistenna kollox min ghand hadiehor, sabiex jiehu decizjonijiet ghalih. Intelligenti huwa dak li jahseb ghal rasu .

How come the No campainers were afraid that Beppe would not be for their advantage? Us citizens want to hear as much as possible from all walks of life .To me silencing a person means a lot. This is the same when journalists were not allowed to do interviews during a press conference . @ THE NO MOVEMENT WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF ?

Many Maltese are sick and/or immature. The divorce issue has been politicized - ok, then, this also should stand: Joseph Muscat likes hamburgers: Lawrence Gonzi likes laham u patata l-forn. All Labourites should stop eating laham il-forn and all Nationalists should stop eating hamburgers. My argument is as solid as the mixing up divorce with LP and NP.

Its quite shame full how people are being manipulated in this divorce campaign. It has become one big political campaign for and against a minority of our population with their lives being treated like tennis balls. This issue is not about divorce anymore but about the wrestling of power away from Mullahs to the people of this country. This debate has been hijacked by the Mullahs of this country and want to deny the minority a right that they should have had with no quibble at all. I am sure that Jesus Christ never intended to ram down peoples' throats his own teachings and beliefs but rather through enlightenment and the force of the SPIRIT.

Why wasn't a family invite issued to the Fenech Adami Clan? That would have been quite enlightening seeing who is married to who, divorced from who, annulled from who........

Maybe Peppi will leave his seat empty. As he used to do when PL officials did not attend to his programmes during the EU referndum campaign. But I don't think that WE are going to be so cruel with the PN. PEPPI's two ways and two measures.
