  • MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 324 June 2020 1
    MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 324 June 2020 1 MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 324 June 2020 The Black Menace - When the Maltese Migrants were pushed back from Australia by Billy Hughes In 1916, Malta was a poor island, heavily caught up in WWI. It was “the nurse of the Mediterranean”, taking care of 80,000 wounded soldiers, a lot of them Australian. They were shipped in from Gallipoli and other European fronts, where Maltese men were fighting on the side of the British Empire themselves. For a small place, with only a little over 210,000 inhabitants, Malta went above and beyond, and many Australian returned soldiers were grateful. But that didn’t help the Maltese in 1916. When the Gange arrived in WA, Australia was in the grip of a referendum on conscription. Labor Prime Minister Billy Hughes, whose enthusiasm for the war had earned him the moniker “the little digger”, had become worried when the zeal to enlist had dropped off after alarming news of tens of thousands of deaths had been published. His solution was to try and see if he could force men to join the military, but for that he needed the permission of the Australian people. On the 28th of October 1916, there was to be a referendum that asked if they were okay with that. In the lead-up, the country had been split down the middle. Scared of conscription were the unions, who feared that with their members away at the front, their jobs would be taken over by women, or even worse, coloured people.

Havant History Booklet No. 54 View, comment, and order all booklets at: hhbkt.com Edited by Ralph Cousins 2 Bedhampton, Havant and the Royal Navy (and the Lost Admirals of Leigh Park) Steve Jones Havant, a small coastal town in its own right, has always had close connections with the navy, and its larger neighbour Portsmouth, the home of the Senior Service. From supplying Portsmouth and the navy with cider in the 17th and early 18th centuries through to being the home of several naval establishments during the Second World War, Havant has always played its part in supporting the navy. Even today Portsmouth dockyard, though not with the volume it once was, is a leading employer to the people of the Havant area. With local hi-tec firms such as Lockheed Martin Havant still plays its part in supporting the navy. Because of its close proximity to Portsmouth it is not surprising that many a naval officer chose Havant and its neighbourhood for their homes. Men of the calibre of Admiral Sir John Acworth Ommaney of Warblington House, Emsworth Road, Admiral Sir James Stirling of Belmont Park, Bedhampton, and Vice-Admiral Charles Norcock of Sherwood, East Street, have all at one time chosen to live in Havant.

  • CROWNS and CLONES in CRISIS Christ's College, Cambridge, 19
    DRAFT CROWNS AND CLONES IN CRISIS The case of Malta (and Gibraltar) Christ's College, Cambridge, 19th July 2017 Henry Frendo, University of Malta Much water has passed under the bridge since Malta became an independent and sovereign state on 21st September 1964, but its essentially Westminster-style Constitution has survived with often minor amendments and changes to respond to certain circumstances as these arose. Such amendments have been largely the result of electoral quirks which needed a remedy, but some have also been political and seminal. When Malta's independence was being negotiated in the early 1960s the government of the day, the Nationalist Party led by Dr Borg Olivier, which had 26 out of the 50 parliamentary seats, sought as smooth a transition as possible from colonialism to independence. By contrast, the largest party in Opposition, led by Dominic Mintoff, wanted radical changes. Three smaller parties were opposed to Independence fearing that Malta would not survive and thrive. One bone of contention was whether Malta should remain a member of the Commonwealth or not. Another was whether Malta should be a constitutional monarchy or not. In both these cases the Borg Olivier view prevailed. Moreover the draft Constitution was approved in a referendum held in May 1964. The vision was that there would be a transition from dependence on employment with the British services, given that Malta had long been regarded and served as a strategic fortress colony in the Central Mediterranean, to a more home-grown 1 and self-sufficient outfit based on industry, tourism and agriculture.

  • 1974: from Constitutional Monarchy to Republic Ugo Mifsud Bonnici
    1974: From Constitutional Monarchy to Republic Ugo Mifsud Bonnici he way in which Independence was achieved for Malta in 1964 was Tthe result of a masterpiece of political manoeuvre. Prime Minister Borg Olivier was in earnest, but had to be engaged in political contests on at least three fronts: that with the British Government, that with the Labour Opposition and that with the Opposition offered by the three other non-Labour parties represented in Parliament. On the content and structure of the Independence constitution he had to produce a draft document acceptable to the United Kingdom Government, because the Independence Act would have to emanate from there, and acceptable also to the three minor parties, who would be expected to add their votes for the approval of the Statute by our Parliament.
