Rekindling Labour’s socialism
A lackey par excellence. A lapdog of lapdogs. An unashamed apologist for criminals and organised crime. A hypocrite and an unprincipled moron. But he is also a socialist, admittedly. Maybe, a bad socialist, but if provided with autonomy and freedom, he is still capable of empathy and this is something that Robert Abela is totally…

Russia, which invaded Ukraine with the aim to destroy…

How is this even allowed by the Medical Council?
Jungle rules culture is pervasive in Malta even in the supposed “respectable professions”. How is it acceptable by the Medical Council and also the Dentists’ Council for a dentist not only to give medical advice on birth but to run a birth clinic which gives out medical advice by non-medical professionals? This vigilante-anti-abortion style centre…
