Just 24 hours after Adrian Delia announced his return to the PN leadership race, the blue house is already on fire.
Tuesday was no ordinary political day — it was the day a private agreement between Adrian Delia and Alex Borg was torn to pieces. According to senior party sources, the two men had long agreed that if one of them contested, the other would stay out — a gentleman’s pact to prevent internal bloodshed.
But that pact is now dead.
And Alex Borg killed it.
The Spark that Lit the Powder Keg
In what many are calling a calculated act of betrayal, Alex Borg formally declared his intention to run for PN leader on Tuesday morning — catching Delia and his camp completely off guard.
“This wasn’t just a challenge. It was a knife in the back,” a senior PN official confided to this site.
The consequences were immediate:
Heated internal meetings
Angry phone calls
Fractures within key parliamentary factions
What was supposed to be a carefully staged comeback for Delia has now spiraled into a civil war at the heart of the PN.
The Gloves Are Off
Let’s be clear: Alex Borg’s entry wasn’t spontaneous. It was the product of panic within the PN hierarchy, triggered by this site’s warning yesterday — that Delia’s return guarantees another catastrophic defeat for the party.
Rather than let Delia claim the leadership unopposed, high-ranking PN insiders — including former Delia allies — pressured Borg into standing, despite the standing agreement between the two.
The result?
A leadership race dripping with betrayal, sabotage, and personal vendettas.
PN in Freefall
This is not a contest of ideas.
This is a street fight between two egos.
And it’s tearing the PN apart.
Where there was once a pact, now there is a power struggle.
Where there was once loyalty, now there is strategic backstabbing.
Where there was once a party, now there is a battlefield.
And all of Malta is watching.
