An online petition against illegal boathouses is aiming to collect 10,000 signatures which will be presented to the political parties PN, PL and AD, has so far attracted 770 signatures with many submitting their reasons why illegal boathouses should be removed.

The petition, originated by David Darmanin, states that “we, the people, are petitioning the Maltese political parties to commit to remove illegal boathouses in their electoral manifestos for the upcoming elections. We, the people, will only vote for the parties that include a strong commitment to removing these illegal buildings from our coasts and lands within one year of being elected”.

“Every Maltese and European citizen has the right to enjoy this country and its beauty without illegal squatters impeaching on our rights.”
