Here's a transcript of the sermon delivered yesterday by Fr David Cilia at the memorial mass held at St Francis Church in Valletta. He opened his sermon by refuting the notion that Daphne's assassination was femicide. His concelbrant, Fr Luigi Ciotti would emphatically express his anger and disgust at the description chosen by Helena Dalli [...]

Of all the speeches, of all the statements, of all the tweets – and there were many, all critical of our government’s conduct since the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia – one stood out above all others. The remarks by the US embassy were, quite frankly, staggering. The thing with embassies is they are as [...]
Some people told us they meant to join us yesterday evening at the demonstration in Valletta but decided not to because they felt offended by Helene Asciak, Daphne Caruana Galizia’s youngest sister, telling Adrian Delia and a delegation of PN suits where to stuff their funereal wreath. And drawing a picture for them when they [...]
The Justice for Journalists Foundation is condemning the impunity that continues to prevail in the case of the horrendous murder of Maltese investigative journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia. Two years after the car she was driving was blown up, three suspects have been arrested, but there is still no trial and no masterminds were identified. Endorsing [...]
Peter Grech has picked out Robert Musumeci to replace him in the University law course to lecture on the rule of law. In an email to second year law students Robert Musumeci said he would be teaching them “the principles of the ‘rule of law’ from both a theoretical and practical perspective’. In the past, [...]
This is a transcript of the Freedom Lecture delivered Monday in honour of Daphne Caruana Galizia by Carlo Bonini: It is a privilege being here today to honour the memory of Daphne. And I do think that, in days like the ones we are going through, she would agree in remembering tonight the young life [...]
I received this message from the St Louis Catholic Church in Tianjin, China. Prayers were lead yesterday by Father Li and Sister Wang from that parish. "This photo shows candles lit after a commemorative mass for Daphne Caruana Galizia at the St Louis Catholic Church in Tianjin, China. It was held at 2.30am Malta time. [...]
Read this Pieter Omtzigt interview with The Guardian today. It sums up his reflections about media reports that suggest our government has known for some time that there were leads they could pursue that could allow for the masterminds behind the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia to be found. Once again we are living a [...]
In principle, freedom of information legislation is there to reverse the old assumption that the business of government is inherently secret but some things are allowed to be known. ‘Open government’ assumes we have a right to know everything about government except for some exceptions. A person charged with a crime is not entitled to [...]
Frankfurter Rundschau previews the book Murder on the Malta Express in this post today. Meantime many bookshops have run out of their stock of the book. A few copies remain and will be sold from the Midsea Books outlet at 6, Strait Street, Valletta tomorrow evening during the gathering in Valletta. A second edition is [...]
Sent in by a young contributor known to me: Daphne Caruana Galizia was assassinated. 2 years ago. Daphne's suffering has ended. Her family's has not. The mere fact someone so close to them was taken away from them in such a brutal manner, simply for exposing the truth is already a depiction of their daily [...]
I was today a guest in Rome at the headquarters of the national press union, the Federazione Nazionale della Stampa Italiana, at a press conference headlined "Two years without Daphne Caruana Galizia". Speakers at the event included Sandro Ruotolo who showed his film for fanpage.it on Malta. A version subtitled in English is being released [...]
