Se non combattiamo la mafia, questa cresce. L'eredità di Falcone resta una lezione per chi ha a cuore la giustizia.

Oggi sono 31 anni dall'assassinio di Giovanni Falcone. Il suo omicidio era un messaggio inequivocabile, che chiunque sfidasse la presa del potere della mafia doveva essere pietrificato.

Hard to know who to believe. In the latest instalment of the knives out: banana republic, the Maltese taxpayer is the real victim

Joseph Muscat led Malta into the largest fraud in our history. After he was removed from power, he made €482,000 consulting those who defrauded the Maltese through a deal he and his friends pushed for whilst in power.
Enormous abuse of power to enable theft and corruption.

It took almost 4 years to convict three thugs who illegally held journalists against their will in the Office of the Prime Minister, no less.
A disturbing symbol of the culture of impunity and of the contempt toward journalists enabled by Castille.

2 Time is ticking. We were defrauded, and we must know who ultimately benefited. We have an arsenal of smoking guns, but not a single prosecution.
The ball is in @RobertAbela_MT’s court to hold his predecessors to account. His propensity to defend them renders him complicit.

1 The national auditor's new report on the hospitals fraud reads like a comedy of errors. Except the only people laughing are the protagonists it identifies as Konrad Mizzi, Keith Schembri, and Joseph Muscat, whose actions were consistently against citizens' financial interests.

A fair election in Turkey depends on the ability of the media to scrutinise and report it.
But whenever the rule of law is weakened, the first victims are journalists and media freedom. We do not need to go far to see this happening. The lessons in Turkey are lessons for Malta.

In Strasbourg, the Social Climate Fund is officially signed, bringing to a close 18 months of preparations & negotiations alongside @Esther_de_Lange, paving the way for billions in investing in a more social climate transition.

Glad to welcome Magistrate @CaterinaChinnic to the @EPPGroup. Her commitment to the fight against the mafia transcends borders. I look forward to working more closely with her within the EPP in the months to come.

On #EuropeDay2023, the Maltese celebrate their identity & history as Europeans, our struggle through wars and the ensuing peace since the Schuman Declaration.
We must keep reaffirming our fight for democracy, justice, & the rule of law, to keep at heart the value of peace.

Abela's latest play against the separation of powers is to exert direct pressure on the judiciary. That the Prime Minister speaks with magistrates behind closed doors is problematic enough. The opaqueness is an aggravation that tallies with his disdain for the rule of law.

In World Press Freedom Index, Malta has dropped 6️⃣ places, from 78 in 2022 to 84 in 2023. Press Freedom Index is better in Chile, Congo & Ecuador than in #Malta. @RSF_inter

Today we remember the journalists who lost their lives for the truth, and especially #DaphneCaruanaGalizia.
Reporting is challenging, particularly when gov censors information and obstructs journalists.
This is why I continue to support their work in Malta and in the @europarl_en

We must continue to work hand in hand with both employers & employees to reap best results for citizens. This means overcoming the idea that WLB measures are incompatible with productivity. @roselynborg

RT @dreynders: Journalists play a vital role in society. Any attempts to prevent them from doing their work is a threat to democracy.
Daphne Caruana Galizia was cowardly murdered for her investigations.
During my visit in 🇲🇹, I paid tribute to her courage and her fight against corruption. https://t.co/1mLCsLBo3j

What Robert Abela omitted to tell you, Commissioner, are his links to organised crime, and how he continues to compromise our institutions to undermine justice and perpetuate impunity.
He is a living, breathing impediment to the rule of law in Malta.
