Matthew Caruana Galizia inherits too soon the chalice of courage in the face of despair, of standing alone in front of the power of a state taken over by corruption and organised crime.

Please read his Facebook post from this morning.

His remarks this morning are not just grief, anger and despair. They are that. But they are a glimmer of hope that in him, Daphne Caruana Galizia’s lonely strength remains firm.

Even though you have never felt more alone, Matthew Caruana Galizia, on behalf of an ungrateful nation thank you for your mother and thank you for all that you must yet do to continue her work.
