The first political debate on the internet between Lawrence Gonzi and Joseph Muscat will be presented by timesofmalta.com website on Sunday.

The discussion focuses on issues like immigration, political allegiances, healthcare and divorce, though it also has its lighter moments when the leaders were asked to say what they admired in each other.

Chaired by the deputy editor of The Sunday Times, Herman Grech, the two leaders locked horns, albeit in a very calm and civilised way. They also took questions from three opinion writers.

The debate, a first for the domestic media scene, was filmed at the studios of timesofmalta.com yesterday.
A glimpse of the debate can be seen above.
