Watch: James Ryder Announces Two Mass Meetings Ahead Of MEP Election
Comedian James Ryder has announced plans for two mass meetings as part of his nascent MEP campaign.
“The first one still needs to be confirmed in terms of logistics and venue but the second one is practically ready to go and invitations will soon be issued for people interested in attending,” Ryder said in an interview with Lovin Malta.
He said that he doesn’t know whether he expects a large crowd to attend his mass meetings.

“I am already operating on a level of support that I wasn’t expecting to get on Day One,” he admitted.
“I was expecting that this level of support would only come midway through the election campaign and that I would have to work much harder for it. However, from the get-go, there is already a large crowd ready to support my movement.”
The MEP candidate said he will also tour as many sixth forms as possible to reach out to youths.
Ryder’s campaign is expected to target disillusioned voters who weren’t planning to vote at all in June.
“This is a serious campaign, although I’m not going to take it seriously,” he quipped. “If you don’t feel represented, if you don’t know who to vote for, if you haven’t voted for years and if you feel that your best option right now is to throw away your vote, you can use this campaign as an opportunity to send a much stronger message through your vote,” he said.
