Nationalist MEP candidate Michael Briguglio has endorsed the call made by executive committee president Mark Anthony Sammut for the PN to tackle the serious allegations levelled against its leader Adrian Delia.
However, in what can be interpreted as veiled criticism against the approach being taken by party officials close to Dr Delia, he warned that such debate should not take the form of a show of force in the leadership.

Apart from Mr Sammut, the MEP candidate is the only one within the party structures to have publicly called for action on the matter.
For the last few weeks Dr Delia has been facing calls to resign in the wake of domestic violence allegations, issues related to his personal finances and money-laundering claims related to a Soho-based prostitution racket dating back to 2004.
