Former PL MP calls out PBS for not covering mayor protests

Former PL MP calls out PBS for not covering mayor protests

Former Labour Minister Evarist Bartolo took to Facebook to call out the national broadcaster for not giving any coverage to two mayors’ speeches during the Xebbajtuna protest in Valletta last Saturday. 

Mayor of Gżira Conrad Borg Manche and Mayor of Qala Paul Buttigieg both addressed the crowd on Saturday to a massive crowd of protestors in front of the capital city’s court. 

The two spoke out against the rampant construction plaguing the island, but Bartolo slammed state media Public Broadcasting Services for not covering any of what they had to say. 

‘If anyone finds (the two mayors), please inform the PBS newsroom first. The last time they were seen, both Labour Party mayors were at the national protest ‘Xebbajtuna’ last Saturday’ wrote the former Foreign Affairs Minister. 

He went on to critique how PBS did not interview or even show Conrad or Paul addressing the protest. 

The protest saw thousands rally in Valletta as various NGOs marched amid calls of ‘Xebbajtuna’ (we’re tired of you).

Last week Satariano had good reason to celebrate as 2023 marks their 125th year in business. The anniversary celebration was held at their flagship showroom in Valley Road B’Kara and was attended by their team members, brand partners and numerous customers. A momentous milestone for the family-owned business – one they’re using as a springboard into the future.

“This is a big moment for the Satariano family and our employees, partners and clients who helped us get here” said Joe Satariano, Managing Director. “We want to reflect on the past and build upon what we’ve done to inspire the next 125 years.

The company attributes this accomplishment to a strong foundation started by Roger Satariano who first began to import and sell building materials and other related products in 1898. Along the way Satariano expanded into other related sectors and today operates from their state-of-the-art showroom now spread over 3,000 square meters, possibly one of the largest bathroom, kitchen, and furniture showrooms on the Island. From the latest luxury home furnishings to the most innovative bathroom solutions, Satariano offers a comprehensive range of products to create bespoke homes to meet every client’s individual needs and preferences.

Looking back, Satariano is humbled by their growth and what they’ve been able to accomplish over the years – As they celebrate their 125th anniversary, the company is – as always, looking towards the future with optimism and excitement, staying at the forefront of the luxury home solutions in Malta and continuing its legacy of excellence and innovation for years to come. 

Quality, it seems, will never go out of style.

Contractor blocks Mqabba square with barriers after not being paid

Contractor blocks Mqabba square with barriers after not being paid

Nationalist MP Adrian Delia took to Facebook to highlight how a contractor reportedly blocked off the Mqabba square with concrete barriers after allegedly not being paid for his work.

Delia said that the contractor was not paid for his work in the square in front of the Mqabba church and closed off the area.

Sources informed this newsroom that this might have been the third time that maintenance work was being carried out in the square. Others claimed that the tender was issued under ‘suspicious circumstances’. 

Police confirmed later with MaltaDaily that the issue was resolved yesterday and the square has reopened. It is still unclear if anyone will be charged for the incident as we are waiting for an official response from the Police Force Communications Department.
