Nationalist Party Leader Leader Alex Borg said that ”this is only the beginning” and pledged renewal starting today at the PN General Council, shortly after he was confirmed as Leader of the PN with a record result of 98.2% of the vote.

The official result was:

YES 1,459 votes (98.2%)

NO 27 votes (1.8%)

During his speech, Alex Borg said that the mandate given to him by the General Council members was not simply a mandate for him to continue leading, but a mandate for the Nationalist Party to look ahead as a more united, modern, stronger Party that is closer to the people.

Alex Borg said that renewal is ”not a choice, but a duty.” He announced that, as of today, the process to revise the Party Statute will begin, with the aim of building a more efficient and open PN, one that is more present in local communities and capable of attracting the best talent.

He said this would be the most extensive renewal of the Party Statute ever undertaken. It would be ”revolutionary change, giving the Party a new structure and opening its doors wide to everyone who wants to contribute to the country.”

Alex Borg thanked all those who placed their trust in him and said that he would transform this renewed confidence into responsibility and greater commitment to making the PN a winning Party, but above all, a Party for all Maltese and Gozitan people.

The PN Leader thanked all those who ”formed part of the history of this great Party in the past, as well as those who are part of its story today: MPs, officials, his team, mayors, local councillors, young people, sectional committees, employees, volunteers, General Council members, paid-up members and supporters who continued to believe in the Nationalist Party even during the most difficult times.”

Borg stated,”I want to make a pact with all of you. Together, we must begin winning again. Because when the Nationalist Party wins, Malta and Gozo win.”
