The Industrial Tribunal has refused a driver’s request after a fight broke out between him and his colleague at St. Luke’s Hospital.

The case was opened by Joseph Schembri against Steward Malta Personnel Limited by a patient driver who was employed between 2017 and 2019.

Schembri argued unjust termination where he was fired after repeatedly calling his colleague a ‘kaboċċa’ and breaking into fisticuffs on the job. Schembri reportedly withdrew his claim, giving the company good reason for his termination.

A real-life Red Light Green Light game has landed in Sydney, and just in time for Halloween too. The first game to be played in Netflix’s most watched series ever Squid Game, players can actually experience the thrill of having to cross a space with a gigantic doll creepily staring them down. Of course, there are no guards shooting you to death if you lose the game, you’ll just be eliminated from the gameplay… not life.

The game will be removed after November 1st as it makes for a perfect Halloween decoration and activity. Players need to go to 4 Circular Quay W in the Rocks to play, and will be given actual green tracksuits to feel as if they are in the show. Of course, given the pandemic, players need to check in using the QR code and show the vaccination certificate. Players are urged not to run and respect social distancing, despite some players being tempted to sprint to the other side.

Winds and rain showers to push into weekend

Winds and rain showers to push into weekend
Oct 29 2021 Share

It seems as though, unfortunately, we’ll have to endure yet another weekend of strong winds and rain as they persist following an intense week of similar weather patterns. Malta is currently under the influence of an atmospheric depression to the northeast, just off the Sicilian coast. The west-northwest wind is set to reach a Force 6 and/or 7 on Friday, with rough seas eventually calming down but picking up again overnight.

According to the Met Office at the Malta International Airport, the wind will veer to northwest on Saturday to become a Force 5 to 6. This is expected to become moderate at around Force 3 and 4 by Sunday. With a mass of low pressure having moved towards the Ionian Sea and becoming a hurricane, or more popularly, a medicane, Malta has managed to escape the windy and rainy battering which dominated Sicily’s east coast.
