Judge grants Joseph Muscat partial access to Vitals inquiry

A judge has granted Joseph Muscat, with immediate effect, partial access to the magisterial inquiry into the Vitals hospital deal, but rejected the disgraced former Prime Minister’s request to...

latest comment from Santana, 09/05/2024 19:46: So, now, the accused has access to the inquiry's process verbal and just about everybody else does not. Brilliant ! FAQ: The aggrieved, in this case, is the nation. Why are the nation, their representatives, NGOs, professional bodies and civil action groups, being kept in the dark? Because Robert Abela does not think it is in his, and the PL's electoral campaign's interest to do so, that's why. Anything for a vote!

They make me look like Toto Riina – Joseph Muscat

Disgraced former Prime Minister Joseph Muscat has said that the authorities are making him appear akin to Toto Riina, given the charges laid against him, which also include a freezing order amounting...

latest comment from mario mifsud, 10/05/2024 00:40: Dr Joe Muscat is showing his true colours - that he is a populist through and through - and expects to be given a platform to air his conspiracy theories since on the wisdom advice of one of his ex-ministers Dr Edward Zammit Lewis , the labour supporters in their majority are Gahans -who will accept his innocence in spite of all criminal indictments that may be presented in court against him. Muscat admitted that there are differences of opinion between the Labour Party and himself and the stand he took in this interview with Karl Bonaci will further exasperate these differences. Muscat will regret very much this act of overreaching, a bridge too far from the Artful Dodger. He will not demolish our judicial system and rule of law but he will damage his case in court , if he continues with such utterances.

latest comment from mohhmiftuh, 09/05/2024 12:10: Wiehed jifhem li din hi sitwazzjoni partikulari ghall-Gudjani u fil-kaz taghhom il-mizuri li ttiehdu sa certu punt jaghmlu sens. Imma issa mhux jithajru kunsilli ohra u arbitrarjament jiddieciedu fejn ghandu jkun riservat parking ghar-residenti taghhom minghajr ma jittiehdu in kunsiderazzjoni l-bzonnijiet ta' nies li jkunu gejjin minn postijiet ohra. Sakemm il-parking ghar-residenti ma jkunx applikat bl-istess kejl ghar-residenti kollha ta' Malta u Ghawdex dan isir kaz ta' diskriminazzjoni. Minhabba, bhas-soltu, nuqqas ta' ppjanar u forsight filwaqt li l-vetturi baqghu jizdiedu kuljum ftit li xejn zdiedu l-postijiet tal-parking anke jekk dawn, kieku saru, setghu jkunu mezz ta' introjtu finanzjarju ghall-kunsilli u ghall-gvern. In-nuqqas ta' postijiet fejn tipparkja qed iwassal ghal hafna pparkjar bl-addocc u perikoluz. Xbajt nara zebra crossings mghottija minn karozzi pparkjati hdejhom jekk mhux ukoll fuqhom.
