Former Civil Protection head to be a Labour MEP candidate
Peter Cordina to be one of the Labour’s ‘star candidates’ for the European Parliament elections next May.
Peter Cordina is set to be an MEP candidate on the Labour ticket next year.
Cordina, who is now retired, had a career spanning more than 40 years in the Police squad, and also served for two years as Prison director.
He retired in 2010 from head of the Civil Protection squad.
Peter Cordina is the father of established economist Gordon Cordina, and husband to TV personality Matilde Balzan. His candidature for the European Parliament elections was not expected.
This manoeuvre suggests the Labour Party will continue to field ‘star candidates’ from the political and social spectrum.
Former Prime Minister Alfred Sant and ex-nationalist Sliema councillor Cyrus Engerer already confirmed their interest in contesting these elections on behalf of the Labour Party.
