Castille has been briefing journalists that Joseph Muscat will give notice of his intention to step down by mid-January. That does not cut it. We will continue our protests at least until he leaves. Now that we have learnt the truth we are not going to stop fighting and let justice be taken from us. [...]

I first published the below article on The Sunday Times of Malta in July 2017. Some of it has not aged well.

Not to mention Lawrence Cutajar's. Here's a blast from the past.
Yesterday Karl Stagno Navarra, our very own Comical Ali, made a plea for sympathy for the wrong man altogether. It's incredible how capable tyrants can be of utterly misjudging the public mood. He asked his viewers to spare a thought for poor Joseph Muscat, he who has to resign after perpetrating the worst cover up [...]

Thursday night, Office of the Prime Minister officials led by the Head of Government Communication Matthew Carbone carefully checked the media credentials of every media member before allowing them into Auberge de Castille for Prime Minister Joseph Muscat’s 3am press conference. They presumably wanted to ensure no protestors got inside. Matthew Caruana Galizia, a Pulitzer [...]
Joseph Muscat’s corrupt regime bound crooks together with the cement of mutual blackmail. It was strong like a fasces, seemingly indestructible.

Italian journalist Sandro Ruotolo who is in Malta as a representative of the Italian union of journalists has posted on Facebook his experience yesterday night outside and insight the office of Malta's prime minister. This is my translation: "Malta is under shock. During the night Keith Schembri, former chief of staff to the prime minister, [...]
The Malta Employers Association has asked the Malta Council for Economic and Social Development (the forum for employers' bodies, labour unions and the government) to suspend its agenda to discuss the present political situation.

Judge Edwina Grima today quashed an appeal by three government ministers (one of them since resigned) that attempted to throw out a magistrate's order for a criminal inquiry into their conduct when three public hospitals were sold to shady interests. Edward Scicluna, Chris Cardona and Konrad Mizzi have now exhausted all legal vehicles to seek [...]

Paolo Borrometi and Sandro Ruotolo brought a message from Beppe Giulietti, president of [...]
