Bernard Grech invites Prime Minister to openly condemn journalist hatred

Aug 28 2021

Opposition leader Bernard Grech has openly condemned the culture of hatred towards journalists and invites Prime Minister Robert Abela to do the same immediately. In a Facebook post, the Nationalist Party chief said that the ‘attacks towards journalists, bloggers and politicians are weakening the pillars of Maltese democracy and are leading to a situation where those investigating corruption and abuse of power are being intimidated.’

He concluded his statement by saying how ‘we cannot remain silent in the face of threats, disruption and intimidation.’ The post follows reports that several media houses in Malta received fake emails coming from civil society group Repubblika, activist Manuel Delia and MP Jason Azzopardi. The latter identified ‘soulless lawyers’ as the culprits behind such coordinated attacks.

Today was certainly a crazy one for the Portuguese superstar as early in the morning and yesterday, he was supposed to be signing for rivals Manchester City. Him leaving was even confirmed by Juventus coach Allegri today, when he told the press “Cristiano Ronaldo told me yesterday that he wants to LEAVE Juventus immediatly. It’s true and confirmed. This is why he wasn’t training today and he’s not available for tomorrow match vs Empoli”.

Everyone thought he would be a Manchester City player come next morning, but all that changed when Manchester United boss Ole Gannar Solskjær excited the press and fans alike when he said “Cristiano Ronaldo? We’ve always had a good communication. Bruno has been talking to him as well and he knows what we feel about him. If he was ever going to move away from Juventus, he knows WE ARE HERE”.

After Ole’s press conference, everything changed. The agreement Ronaldo with Manchester City collapsed which reportedly led to former manager Sir Alex Ferguson giving him a call and convincing him to sign with his former team. The negations were agreed very quickly as the club have just announced the signing.
