May 6 2024 Share

Argentinian global star Lionel Messi has broken yet another record with Inter Miami, this time becoming the first player to register 5 assists in one single game in the MLS.

To add the cherry on the cake, Messi also managed to score a goal along with his five assists meaning that he contributed to every goal scored in Miami’s resounding, 6-2 win over New York Red Bulls.

This season, Messi coupled with former Barcelona teammates Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets, has dominated American soccer currently leading the eastern conference table with 24 points.

The game not only highlighted Messi’s brilliance but also the goal scoring prowess of  Luis Suarez who managed to bag his first ever hattrick with Miami since joining last summer.

Inter Miami, owned by superstar David Beckham, with the help of Lionel Messi will hope to win their first ever MLS this season.

‘Sending People To Jail For Abortion Unacceptable’, Says Cassola

'Sending People To Jail For Abortion Unacceptable', Says Cassola
May 6 2024 Share

Doctors For Choice Malta sent a letter to three MEP candidates – James Ryder, Mina Jack Tolu and Arnold Cassola – to ask their stance on abortion and sex education.

Both Ryder and Jack Tolu responded that they (and ADPD, in the case of Tolu), are in favour of decriminalising abortion.

‘I am in full support of it. We are long overdue when it comes to bodily autonomy, as well as women’s access to healthcare for their own bodies’, said Ryder.

Tolu answered the questions on behalf of the other ADPD candidates: Sandra, Rachelle and Ralph. The party extended their approval of sex education as well as ensuring free access to contraception.

On his part, Arnold Cassola said that while he believes that a foetus is a human life and should be protected, cases wherein a mother’s life and health are in danger, priority is to be given to safeguarding the mother.

Cassola did however say that sending people to jail in the case of abortion is not acceptable, whilst also supporting comprehensive sex education and setting up sexual health state clinics in all 13 districts of Malta.
