Jan Busuttil or Paolo Dybala? A star is born. Prosit Floriana F.C.

Russians wherever you are, it is about time you stand up to be counted.

Once a 77 year old musician had the guts to do so in Moscow, surely Russian citizens of good will living abroad should do likewise especially if they are purposely residing in the free world.

Since February 24 2022 thousands of Ukrainian civilians have been killed, hundreds of children included.

So many Ukrainian women have been r***d, some it seems even with the consent of the russian soldiers' own wives. But can a russian soldier behave in such a barbarian primitive way and get away without the public disapproval of his fellow citizens?

Russian Christians have the greatest responsibility to see to the immediate resurrection of civilisation. Especially now that Easter is near.

A concert in Moscow by Russian pianist, Alexei Lubimov, and Russian soprano, Yana Ivanilova, was broken up by police last night.

"Brutal night for traditional political parties ...
Blowing up & implosion of traditional parties ..."
in France.

Centre right Republicans previously led by stalwarts like Charles de Gaulle, Giscard d'Estaing & Jacques Chirac & the centre left Socialists of François Mitterand fame polled just 4.8% and 1.8% respectively.

"Every nation gets the government it deserves".

Joseph de Maistre
Savoyard philosopher, writer, lawyer, and diplomat (1753-1821).

In a duopoly the struggle is simply to perpetuate power at all costs, sacrificing your own soul. There is no tolerance to dissent even when it is so loyal. I know the feeling.

Evarist Bartolo has spoken about the discomfort he felt when links emerged between top government officials and the Panama Papers as well as their connection to Daphne Caruana Galizia’s murder. The former education and foreign minister said he had told Joseph Muscat that both Konrad Mizzi and...

Who would have imagined back in the 70's that I would watch Floriana play on my mobile half a century later.
But what a privilege it was to watch them at Gzira back then in my childhood. I can still recall the line up.

And the level had not deteriorated so much until I was their club doctor in the 90's.

As for today, there were only 3 maltese players on each side. Goalless. Lacklustre.

I would follow Louis Arpa's advice .... not to say but his no 10 shirt was second to none!

Populism will never think about tomorrow.
But moreover the left should know better as quality of life will be a nightmare if pensions will have no purchasing power.

Both extreme left Jean-Luc Mélenchon (Communist) & extreme right Marine Le Pen (Front National) are so Eurosceptic. Like Macron, Greens are consistently favourable to further EU integration which in my view, now, after the invasion of Ukraine, is top priority.

As always, the danger is that extremes converge at some point. Just like Stalin & Hi**er until the battle of Stalingrad. But the irreversible damage had been done!

Valérie Pécresse (Republican, centre-right) & Anne Hidalgo (Socialist, centre-left) - the two main political parties in France since the present Constitution was established in 1958, in polls for tomorrow's Presidential Elections only amount to 11.3% of the electorate. When will we move on from our duopoly here in Malta?

Santo Padre, e' stato un privilegio così inaspettato vederla così da vicino mercoledì 19 maggio scorso. Ma non è stato un caso perché lei sta sempre così vicino alla gente. Grazie per modo suo. Benvenuto a Malta.

Holy Father, it was such an unexpected privilege to see you so closely on Wednesday 19th May. But it was not by chance because you are always so close to people. Thank you for your way of doing things. Welcome to Malta.

Bħas-soltu il-One TV jirraporta biss dak li jaqbillu. F'każ li ma jafux bl-ingliż, dak li ktibt hawn wara li tħabbar ir-riżultat elettorali, qlibtulhom bil-malti:

"Għal ħafna snin issa, iż-żewġ partiti politiċi ewlenin hawn daħlu fi kriżijiet eżistenzjali fl-istess ħin.

Meta joqgħod it-trab, membri tal-PL li għandhom għal qalbhom il-korrettezza politika għad jagħmlu wkoll eżami tal-kuxxjenza biex jaraw xi jfisser li tissejjaħ Laburista mingħajr ma tagħti każ lill-klassi tal-ħaddiema.

Il-PL huwa wkoll imxaqqaq fil-pedamenti tiegħu. Meta jirkupraw minn dan il-hangover, bl-inflazzjoni dinjija qawwija li se jkun hawn, mghandix dubju li ħadd mhu se jerġà jittollera
il-kilba għall-flus tal-politiċi tagħhom."
