Timothy Alden

He would then lead two subsequent delegations to meet with the Steering Committee for Constitutional Reform. The second meeting took place on the 7th of January 2019, and the Democratic Party argued that the process of Constitutional reform should not be limited to the remit of the Steering Committee, but should instead transform into a full convention with broad participation and decision-making powers delegated to representatives of the general public.

In April 2018, Alden would be one of the first to take an open and direct public stand against the system of clientelism which reigns in Malta, whereby each Ministry has a "customer care department". The existence of these departments was confessed by a government Minister. Alden received a phone call at his household in which a Ministry offered favours to the family, implying an attempt to buy their vote. Alden responded by writing a letter to the Commissioner of Police and later filed a report to the Police. Alden then went on to report the situation to the Commission Against Corruption when the Police took no action. He succeeded in stirring public debate about clientelism and others stepped forward to speak against it.

For ALDE's annual congress in 2018, Timothy Alden led a delegation to Madrid. The delegation included Dr. Anthony Buttigieg. During the congress, the Democratic Party ensured that the section of the ALDE manifesto dealing with defence was in line with Malta's constitution, which states that Malta is a neutral country. Alden also advocated a more pro-active approach to good governance reform in the EU.

Alden's environmental activism began through his work with the NGO, Flimkien għal Ambjent Aħjar. His first engagement with the NGO saw it present an open letter to the Prime Minister, demanding that the overdevelopment of the country be remedied. Through FAA he also organised the 75th Anniversary of Operation Pedestal. In the 2017 Maltese general elections, he agreed to contest with the Democratic Party as part of the Forza Nazzjonali alliance, contesting the 8th and 9th Districts. He believed that a third party was the only way to bring about desperately needed reform. Although the government retained its power after the election, the Democratic Party elected two members to Parliament, becoming the first third party to do since before the Independence of Malta. Wanting the party to evolve beyond its association with her own image, Marlene Farrugia resigned from the post of party leader in August 2017.

In 2016 he graduated jointly with both a Bachelors and Masters in International Management and Intercultural Studies. He attained his degrees respectively from the University of Stirling and the University of Passau.

Upon the resignation of Marlene Farrugia and Godfrey Farrugia from Partit Demokratiku, Timothy Alden insisted that he would remain loyal to the party, and that the Executive would meet to discuss the best way forward. On the 25th of September, during an Executive meeting, Alden appointed a negotiating team to discuss a merger with the Democratic Alternative. On the 28th of December, the anniversary of the murder of Karin Grech, Timothy Alden and Carmel Cacopardo announced that talks for the two parties to merge were at an advanced stage.
