The two major political parties will tonight hold political activities, as both are in full preparation for the general election which will be held in the coming months.

Prime Minister Robert Abela will be addressing a Labour Party mass event at the MFCC at Ta’ Qali, starting at 6pm.

He will be addressing a rally for Labour supporters which brings to an end a four-day conference the party has held over the weekend.

Opposition Leader Bernard Grech will be addressing Nationalist supporters at the Granaries in Floriana in his first political mass event since becoming leader of the Nationalist Party.

The PN’s event will start at 6.30pm.

Both mass events will follow Covid-19 protocols, therefore limiting the amount of people that can attend. 

At this stage, it remains unclear when the election will be held but the latest the general election can be held is September 2022.

The Malta Independent will be covering both events.
