A MaltaToday survey reveals that a relative majority want Home Affairs Minister Manuel Mallia to resign after the shooting incident of Wednesday 19 November involving his driver.

The survey also shows that 33% want Mallia to stay on while 25% are undecided.

The survey was held a few days after Mallia’s driver, Paul Sheehan, fired two shots at a hit-and-run driver. The Opposition has been consistently arguing that Mallia should resign over the incident, urging the Prime Minister to sack him.

The Opposition has now moved a no confidence motion in Mallia. This, Joseph Muscat said, should be debated after an independent inquiry investigating allegations of a cover-up is concluded.
