Robert Abela’s government is in “total collapse,” Opposition Leader Bernard Grech said on Monday.

The web of criminality is crumbling piece by piece and is no longer tenable, he said in a statement.

“In just one day we saw an MP’s resignation over a police interrogation, another who cannot contest the election because he is being investigated over tax evasion and a minister who is still there because the PM is too afraid to sack her.”

Grech said these actions are leading to irreparable harm to the country’s reputation.

The Maltese, he said, have the right to have a serious and wise government. The PN wants to be the government that hardworking honest people deserve. “The Maltese deserve better. We will be better.”

Grech called on people to join the PN in removing this “untenable” government and give Malta the government it deserves.
