Journalists are no replacement for effective institutions. As long as crime remains unprosecuted at every level, #journalists are at risk.
On International Day to End Impunity for Crimes Against Journalists, we stand for justice and against impunity.

Labour will keep pumping money into Steward and Socar, but won't add an extra day of paid leave for parents from the minimum of the #WorkLifeBalance Directive I negotiated.

Pleased that we have come this far.
And that concrete legislation - Daphne’s Law - is now on the table and being negotiated. ✅

Proud to have taken on the battle to protect journalists from the harassment and intimidation that are #SLAPPs
A battle that started 5 years ago when the crooked #PilatusBank attempted to re-write history by bullying #Malta’s media houses.
