Man Of The Year? Malta’s Vassallo, Defender of Decency!
Only ONE Maltese MP voted against the introduction of homo-weddings.

A bit early to nominate somebody for Man of the Year?
Maybe, but there won’t be many nominees as admirable as Maltese Ewin Vassallo, a Nationalist Party MP who defied his party’s sell-out to the local gaystapo.
And now that party is contemplating ‘disciplinary action’ against him –

– ‘the matter would be referred to the relevant party structures for their “consideration and decision.”
Vassallo won’t resign, he says.
“I view the matter as a closed chapter. I made a decision according to my conscience,” he said, adding that his conscience had not allowed him to follow the party’s stance in favour of same-sex marriage…
Vassallo also made the point that that a lot of people did not agree with the new law.
A good point.
No chance of a referendum, because that could expose the essentially anti-democratic basis of the legislation
But even if we accept last year’s opinion poll… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recognition_of_same-sex_unions_in_Malta …there were at least a quarter of the Maltese population opposed to the equation of deviant menages with real marriage.

He has a lot of guts to stand alone like that.
If he was an English Tory MP, that May would purge him like she purged the Isle of Wight MP.
I hope his party leaders don;t do the same to him
