Adrian Delia Officially Puts Name Forward For PN Leadership

Jun 23 2025

Former Nationalist Party leader and current MP Adrian Delia has officially announced that he will be putting his name forward for the leadership of the PN once again.

Delia has been placing as the second favourite to become PN Leader, following MP Alex Borg and ahead of former MP Franco Debono in surveys.

Describing the decision as neither easy nor hasty, he emphasised the personal and political weight it carries. “This choice affects not only me, but also those closest to me, especially my family,” he stated.

“I have heard your passion, your frustration, and your belief in a better future. You have inspired me,” he added.

‘Over the past weeks, I have spoken to many of you. You have shared your thoughts, your hopes, and your desire to see a strong, united party — one that rises above internal divisions, embraces a new way of politics, and moves confidently toward victory.’

‘Understanding the weight of this responsibility, yet confident that together we can turn a page and begin a new chapter, I have chosen once more to place the interests of the PN and country first.’

‘With the support of my family, friends, kunsilliera, tesserati and parliamentary colleagues, I am officially putting my name forward to serve as leader of our great party once again.’

“I am putting the interests of the party and the country first. Together, I believe we can succeed.”

Gozo’s Ġbejna Named Among 50 Best In World

Jun 23 2025

Gozo’s cheeselet, known locally as Ġbejna t’Għawdex, has been named as the 35th best from around the world according to Taste Atlas.

‘Ġbejna is a small cheeselet produced from sheep or goat milk, rennet, and salt’, Taste Atlas explains.

‘The cheese can be prepared in numerous ways – salted, peppered, pickled, covered in herbs, or plain. It is believed that Ġbejna was originally prepared with seawater instead of rennet as a curdling agent.’

‘Nowadays, the cheese is a staple of Maltese cuisine – it can be used in a traditional Maltese soup called soppa tal-armla, served with local sourdough bread for breakfast, or paired with dips and spreads in Maltese appetizer platters.’

The first place was taken by Greece’s Sfela – have you ever tasted it?

Athletics Malta Sets Off To Compete In European Team Athletics Championships

Jun 23 2025

Malta’s athletics team is travelling to Maribor, Slovenia, to take part in the European Team Athletics Championships. This is a big competition where teams from all over Europe try to move up to higher leagues. Malta will compete in the Third League.

Earlier this year, Malta’s athletes did very well at the Games of the Small States of Europe in Andorra. They won 19 medals, including three golds. This gave the team plenty of confidence for the European Championships.

The Maltese team includes 31 athletes and eight officials. In 2021, they finished seventh and improved to fifth place in 2023. This year, they hope to do even better. However, five important athletes had to pull out for personal reasons, which makes things harder.

The team will take part in all men’s and women’s events, plus the mixed 4x400m relay. They want to score as many points as possible.

For the first time, Malta has two team captains: Luke Bezzina and Gina McNamara. Both are experienced and well respected.

The team is led by Head of Delegation Darren Micallef and Team Leader Mario Bonello.

The Third League competition will be held on 24 and 25 June at the Athletic Stadium Poljane in Maribor. Malta’s participation is supported by SportMalta.
