Photos have recently surfaced online of a shop’s front in St Julian’s Ballet Square donning Da Michele’s branding, garnering immediate attention by media and food lovers whose taste buds know exactly what’s in store. 

And now, posting to social media, Da Michele Malta revealed that their next opening of L’Antica Pizzeria is truly coming to the Maltese islands. 

Founded in 1870, L’ Antica Pizzeria Da Michele is one of the oldest and best pizzerias in Naples and attracts droves of customers, some of them very familiar faces, to dine in their establishments. 

Michele Condurro, mastered the family art of pizza making, which he acquired from the legendary Torre Annunziata masters who were professionals in the preparation and kneading of pizza dough, as well as the cooking of pizza. 

It eventually became known as ‘the sacred temple of pizza’ by food specialists and journalists from all over the world, and it is now bringing its delicacies to the Mediterranean island.

Italy could get a 19-year-old influencer as queen

An Italian prince, Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy, is set to renounce his claim to Italy’s throne and pass it to his 19-year-old influencer daughter, Vittoria. 

Italy does not have its own royal family, after it abolished the monarchy in a referendum in 1946. However, the House of Savoy, which was the birth family of Italy’s kings, still hopes this could change. 

Teenage model Vittoria boasts around 82.5K followers on Instagram, and is currently studying political science and art history at the University of London. 

She is also known for her model work, posing for the avant-garde clothing company GEN FREY last year and appearing on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine. 

It is reported that if Vittoria ascends the throne, she would be in charge of the family’s ‘charities’, which spent more than $1 million on projects last year. 

Prince Emanuele wanted to make the move to show that the family was open and progressive – and possibly save face after his grandfather supported the Mussolini regime. 

He thinks that his daughter could do a better job in the role and bring modern ideas to it. His move to hand over the throne to his daughter breaks the Salic Law of Succession.

Banners to decriminalise abortion on Parliament barriers

Voice For Choice pro-choice activists stuck banners urging for the decriminalisation of abortion after a court case saw a woman charged for carrying out an abortion at home and after Prime Minister Robert Abela expressed his ‘discomfort’ at the case. 

‘In comments at the State of The Nation conference this week, Prime Minister Robert Abela said he was not comfortable with the court’s conviction of a woman charged with abortion’, wrote the group in a statement. 

The group said that they do not want to hear about the discomfort and are done listening to ‘empty calls for debates and exchanges’. 

‘Don’t tell us to talk about it more, when we are talking about it – we are shouting loud – at doors that are sealed shut with you behind them holding the pen.’ 

‘The mother of a very young child – entirely dependent on her in a violent home – made a decision to take control over her own body. Reported by the partner that abused her for making what in most countries in the world is considered a completely private decision. Berated by the court for not seeking alternative options; options that are not accessible, found only behind more doors that are closed.’ 

The group said that the state has ‘failed yet again’ to protect another woman and ‘betrayed her instead.’ 

‘Tell us about how this nightmare ends. Tell us about strategies that support us. Tell us about how basic healthcare will finally be provided. Tell us what you’re going to do about it.’ 

What do you make of this?

Times of Malta has reported that education authorities have had to launch investigations after an altercation between two students at Naxxar Middle School which involved a butter knife. 

The newsroom reported that the incident took place before noon on Tuesday, which saw two 12-year-old students fight and pull at each other’s hair at break time.

After being separated, one of the girls reportedly ran to the school kitchenette to grab a butter knife and chase the other girl. 

The commotion scared both teachers and students, but they were both stopped before anyone could get hurt. The parents were called in and disciplinary action was immediately taken against both students, who were sent home. 

A source informed Times of Malta that this is not the first instance the student caused trouble and re-issued calls for better security on and around school grounds.
