Decapitating institutions is not going very well
The Prime Minister has successfully decapitated the authorities and the security entities to allow widespread impunity for his Labour associates and ultimately for himself.

Home Affairs Minister Byron Camilleri fails to show up at planned debate with Shadow Minister
Riddled with a history of cover-ups, dysfunction and outright political abuse, the Minister for Home Affairs, Byron Camilleri would never withstand a debate against his Opposition spokesperson and Shadown Minister.

There’s a strong irony to the “Skills Card” being promoted by Byron Camilleri. Can you guess what it is?
Byron Camilleri, the Minister for Home Affairs who launched the new “Skills Card scheme”, through which third-country foreign nationals will be further required to pay money to obtain low-paying jobs in Malta, doesn’t seem to grasp the irony of his own initiative.
