Abstract: Maltese politics in the 20th century oscillated between polarising positions centred on the Language ~estion and Malta's Constitutional future. In addition, there were internal party disagreements and a long-standing feud between the Church and the Malta Labour Party. Exacerbating these political disagreements were the differing political, economic, cultural, and social needs, which played no small part in shaping the public debate. Moreover, Maltese politics was also characterised by charismatic individuals who could attract and retain the loyalty and support of many followers.
