"We must eradicate corruption at home."
Corruption is a threat to democracy and to human rights. Maltese people knows this.
To hear it as a priority in @vonderleyen's #SOTEU address is promising and vindicating.
We cannot have a just Europe if corruption is allowed to thrive.

On the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, we remember the victims of terrorism and their families.
They marked the start of an era of mistrust and uncertainty. 21 years later, we must continue safeguarding all that terrorism strives to dismantle.

Today concludes the epic reign of Queen Elizabeth II. Admired her sense of duty and dedication to the commonwealth that branded nations' identities.
She was head of state of independent Malta for a decade. Her love of Malta remains felt by the Maltese people.

A display of exceptional moral manoeuvrability from @TimmermansEU.
Even after the can of worms of corruption scandals gripped Malta, he grinned, posed, and showered praise on disgraced former Prime Minister Joseph Muscat.
Morality pierced by politics loses credibility.

The lengths @MaltaGov went to in order to conceal the extent of the rot and corruption in this Electrogas deal knows no bounds.
@TheShiftNews and @daphnefdtn deserve credit for exposing the truth. No rest until those responsible for deceiving the Maltese are held to account.

1980s Sicily saw hundreds murdered in a Mafia war. For accepting to intervene as General, Carlo Alberto Dalla Chiesa, along with his wife and police escort, was assassinated. Crime and corruption killed him. But he is remembered for his values in life and adversity.

Justice means reforming the institutions that corrupt politicians bent to their will.
The aggressive campaign to convince us that progress has been made has not impressed anyone.
Malta is still a flawed democracy. Genuine reforms are a long way off. The Commission knows this.

30 years ago today, Rita Atria took her own life.
She was a state witness against the Mafia. But a week after Paolo Borsellino was assassinated, she lost all hope for justice to be had.
These are the consequences of impunity, of when the state fails to protect against crime.

“She was killed at a time when she was, at least in my mind, becoming irrelevant.”
Says a Prime Minister whose career ended after an “irrelevant” journalist exposed him for the crook he is.
Joseph Muscat thinks his audience lives inside one of NASA’s faraway galaxies. 1/4
