Saviour Balzan: The great abortion row of 2019

Saviour Balzan takes former Alternattiva Demokratika chairperson Arnold Cassola to task over his reasons for resigning from the party after a row over abortion sparked by an MEP candidate's call for a debate on the subject.

Balzan insists that Cassola had no qualms staying on as secretary general of the European Green Party some years back despite the party having a clear stand in favour of abortion.

On the recent Cabinet meeting at the Salini nature reserve, Balzan expresses his hope that politicians will one day start to speak about protecting this country's natural heritage and rich biodiversity.
