The following is a statement by Repubblika issued earlier today: The state's witness, Melvyn Theuma, yesterday in court gave more reasons that make one doubt how much the declarations by the Deputy Leader of the Labour Party should be believed. From yesterday’s evidence, Chris Cardona seems to be heavily implicated in Daphne Caruana Galizia’s murder. [...]

Robert Abela can’t stop talking. And now he’s prime minister few people try to stop him. When his office announces one of his addresses to the nation is coming up people groan quietly. Before they turn on the TV, people count 7 minutes from the announced starting time because being fashionably late is now a [...]

Forget it Christian. Resigning from Parliament will not absolve all the disreputable deals and actions you did over the past six years (and maybe even before). This is not like a confession with a priest forgiving all your sins so that you can start afresh, after saying five Holy Marys. Chris Cardona you still have [...]

It sounds like something you’d eat in Bolzano. But it’s actually happening in Gozo. This Facebook post was put up by a senior staffer working for Gozo MP and government minister Anton Refalo. Kevin Mompalao has developed a disgust for Yorgen Fenech but it’s only really come through since the former tycoon that stands accused [...]
