While the Nationalist Party is busy dealing with a leadership campaign, the Labour government has been passing controversial amendments in laws in parliament without consultation or much debate.

National Security to become an electoral issue for the 2027 general election
National security has never been an issue in the electoral manifestos of local political parties but this may very well change in the upcoming general election in 2027. As the Labour government remains silent over Israel’s attack on the Freedom Flotilla vessel “Conscience”, it risks making another mockery of Malta’s national security. This is not…

Editorial: Foreign interference in Malta’s sea passageways is unacceptable
As an independent news outlet that covers both local and international news on an equal basis, we were well positioned to cover the story of the stranded, Freedom Flotilla vessel, “Conscience”. We were in fact, the first to verify among the press, the name and location of the ship, the story of the Israeli plane,…

The Malta Security Services should be disbanded: a new entity should be created
Following the scandal about the dug-heist at a base of the Armed Forces of Malta, nothing has changed for Malta’s national security and things are only getting worse. The Home Affairs Byron Camilleri has kept his potion as if nothing has happened and that his incompetence is only a figment of our imagination. “Appoġġ assolut.”…

Alex Agius Saliba’s position about defence is aligned with the pro-Russian far-right
Alex Agius Saliba has taken the pro-Russian position on European defense: that is the position that Europe should remain defenseless against Russian aggression and give up its national security.

On the 30th of December 2024, a plane bound for Istanbul in Turkey, made an emergency landing at Malta International Airport…

Criminals within the system
Just a few days after we broke the news that a police officer sabotaged his own case against the notorious drug-trafficker and car-rental businessman Christian Borg, a group of criminals broke into a military base and stole up to 200KG of cannabis. Police Inspector Gabriel Micallef isn’t a novice in irregular behaviour. He was previously fired…

For the sake of our national security, Byron Camilleri has to resign
Byran Camilleri is my friend, or was my friend, judging by the fact that we haven’t spoke to each other for years. On a personal level, he is known as humble, not corrupt and very sensible. In politics, he has earned himself the record of the worst Home Affairs Minister Malta has had in at…

So reckless, it hurts
A Maltese national out and about conducting international scams. A Deputy Prime Minister smeared by an online campaign conducted by retired intelligence and military officers. Chinese hackers attacking a Maltese journalist, and other Maltese citizens as a result. How many more cases of cybersecurity failures does it take for the Police to realise that they…

No National Security: even the Deputy-Prime Minister is not safe
I have no words to explain the anger and humiliation that I feel as my nation is bullied and abused by criminal degenerates or a group of retired-grifting army and intelligence personnel looking for their next big fraud. In addition to his regular and spectacular failures in particular cases, Police Commissioner Angelo Gafa couldn’t even…

A very vulnerable state of affairs
It is not my pleasure to be writing such pieces, but as the Labour Party and its supporters are riling up against the Judiciary and speaking of war against the State, the Labour Party is conducting its European Parliament elections against with a conspiratorial campaign against the European Union, Brussels as a centre of power,…
