However limited the terms of reference of the inquiry may have been, given the allegations about Egrant and given the context in which the company was activated together with Hearnville and Tillgate, it is perfectly legitimate police work for one to seek to establish who the “bearer” of the Egrant shares was between March 2013 [...]
I know of at least one: evidence that Michelle Buttigieg, Michelle Muscat’s business partner in the fake business branded Buttardi, settled in one fell swoop a mortgage for an apartment in Manhattan, New York days after she was alleged to have received a portion of a bung paid to Michelle Muscat by the daughter of [...]
Joseph Muscat spent the last eighteen months pretending to lose his cool because Simon Busuttil forged documents to frame him for a crime. The day an extract of the report was published last year he made an act of being unable to hold back his emotions and burst into tears in a press conference. For [...]
Whatever blood, sweat and tears Aaron Bugeja put into this job and however impressive a pile of 1,501 pages may be, this inquiry report shows how woefully inadequate our institutions are in combatting money laundering and financial crime. Malta may claim it is a world class financial jurisdiction. It has adopted laws of tax havens [...]
Look, I have not yet read the whole Egrant report. 1,501 pages is rather a lot to read and it is not exactly stuff that keeps you at the edge of your seat. There’s plenty of analysis that still needs to be made. Also, Godfrey Leone Ganado will be, in good time, providing a series [...]
The socio-economic ramifications and the political theatre of the absurd discourse on these islands during these last years, programmed in minute detail years before same hit the stage, were nothing else but a treacherous act against the State. An act that had as its source the same party in government. Irrespective of the dark backgrounds [...]
Keith Schembri here at the back of a court marshal's car leaving his Santa Marija Estate Villa this morning taken to testify in court on the back of arrest warrant issued to force him to attend the constitutional case brought by Yorgen Fenech against the Maltese authorities. Yorgen Fenech has been charged with the murder [...]
One after the other MEPs stood to restate some very clear and stark facts. A journalist has been killed. She investigated corruption on which no action has yet been taken. There is justified suspicion that the prime minister’s office was involved in the cover-up of the murder, and therefore is suspected of being involved in [...]

Perhaps someone should tell them the court marshal could not find Keith Schembri so he can appear as a witness this morning. Perhaps they could have got Neville Gafa to find him for them. Or if not to actually see Keith Schembri, why was Neville Gafa going to Santa Maria Estate in his office car [...]

There are many reasons to watch Rai’s film from last Sunday. It can perhaps explain why the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia was never going to be a local Maltese story and that’s not just because this is the story of the killing of a journalist and journalists everywhere are bound to be interested in [...]

The European Parliament is expected to debate Malta again in its plenary session tomorrow after a statement by the European Commission on the situation here. The debate is scheduled for tomorrow morning and will end with a vote on a resolution which is still being discussed by the various political groupings in the chamber. The [...]
God only knows what that would look like. Picture instead what all the people cancelling their Christmas plans because of these royal cunts will tell themselves when they see this.
