A billboard promoting Democratic Party MEP candidates was vandalised, party leader Godfrey Farrugia has said.

The billboard in Marsa featuring the PD’s three electoral candidates was put up just last week. On Monday, it was found half-torn off its frame.

“I was told by the billboard operator that it was intentionally ripped,” Dr Farrugia told Times of Malta.

“We found it extremely difficult to organise the billboards in the first place, and for a small party like ours, even drumming up the funds for them is difficult. It’s a shame that we also have to contend with such acts,” he added.

The PD is fielding three candidates – Anthony Buttigieg, Martin Cauchi Inglott and Camilla Appelgren – during next month’s MEP elections.
