Campaigners who want national policy to allow migrants to drown at sea and to officially discriminate against black people gathered in Valletta today in furtherance of their cause. All 3 of them. I am not going to indulge them by telling you what they said. You can imagine that, though you should have liked not [...]
The Government Gazette says today that Ian Abdilla, the senior police officer who sipped coffee while Ali Sadr Hashemi Nejad whisked the evidence out of Pilatus Bank, is to get a medal for service to the nation.
