Thumbs up to Alternattiva Demokratika's Arnold Cassola, for becoming the third Maltese European Parliament election candidate in a row to officially endorse the European gay lobby's ten-point pledge.

Check out my previous entries entitled "Am I bothered? Yes, I am" and "Putting one's money where one's mouth is" for further information on the contents of this official statement and on the gay lobby's 'Be bothered. Vote for a human rights friendly European Parliament' campaign.

The first two candidates to sign the pledge were Labour's Sharon Ellul-Bonici and Alleanza Liberali's John Zammit.

The interactive map - which, I've been told, is doing the rounds amongst Malta's sizeable gay community - showing which EP election candidates have signed, can be accessed here:
