Just hours after Bernard Grech officially announced his resignation as Leader of the Nationalist Party, the party finds itself in a state of uncertainty. Despite the high political stakes and a leadership vacuum that needs urgent filling, no one has yet stepped forward to officially declare their candidacy for the PN leadership.
Sources within the Nationalist Party confirmed with this site that all eyes are now on European Parliament President Roberta Metsola. Party insiders revealed that the PN has been waiting for Metsola to communicate her intentions regarding the leadership race since Sunday evening—immediately after internal discussions began on the future direction of the party.

While speculation has been rife that Metsola is being encouraged to contest, her silence is causing growing frustration among party ranks. “We’re in limbo,” one senior party figure admitted, noting that other potential candidates are holding back until Metsola makes her position clear.

This delay only compounds the sense of instability currently engulfing the PN. With no clear frontrunner and the party machinery in a holding pattern, the coming days will be crucial in determining whether the PN can unite around a new leader—or spiral further into internal division.
As it stands, the Nationalist Party is a party without a leader and without a declared successor. The silence from Roberta Metsola may soon become deafening.

The PNEEEEEE is toast, hu ghar min ekk toast mahruq.
Still hoping for the Triccas to lead the party?
Triccas is not the leader who will lead the PN to victory and turn Malta into a “super” state as some idiots in the PN ranks make us think.
