Little Mix to announce break up next month for after 2022 tour

Little Mix to announce break up next month for after 2022 tour
Oct 18 2021 Share

International newsroom The Sun has reported that they can reveal that Little Mix will announce they are breaking up sometime mid-November. The group, made up of Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Perrie Edwards and Jade Thirlwall, revealed that they will pursue solo careers after their 2022 tour. One of the girls revealed that following much speculation about the future of Little Mix, the end of the road has been reached. Their final tour is going to be a farewell to their fans with a date for the split set for announcement. 

The group was initially made up of four singers, but the other member, Jesy Nelson, left the group in 2020. The group rose to prominence by becoming the first group to win the British X-Factor in 2011. With a pop, R&B and dance-pop style, Little Mix focused on having themes dealing with female empowerment, body positivity and LGBT rights. This news comes after much mud-slinging, with Leigh-Anne accusing former member Jesy Nelson of black-fishing in leaked messages.

€1.2 million investment to refurbish Imdina’s playground

€1.2 million investment to refurbish Imdina’s playground
Oct 18 2021 Share

Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Capital Projects Ian Borg has just announced that the children’s playground outside Imdina will be getting a €1.2 million refurbishment. The works are set to start in the coming days, with the space frequented by many Maltese families set to receive a more colourful setting and safer infrastructure for children to enjoy. The site has allegedly already been closed off for works, with Borg stating that there are being advances in the playing equipment. 

He said that the government cannot let this inadequate playground remain in its outdated state. He highlighted how Mdina’s local council proposed the refurbishment, which, according to the Minister, displayed the civic sense of responsibility the council has towards its residents. The area is an immensely popular site for both Maltese families and tourists – providing temporary relaxation following a tour of Malta’s old capital city.

Law Enforcement Minister calls to allow police officers with tattoos

Law Enforcement Minister calls to allow police officers with tattoos
Oct 18 2021 Share

In what could be a revolutionary post for Malta’s national security, Minister for Law Enforcement and Home Affairs Byron Camilleri has said that it is time for the police corp to update its views on tattoo in the force. Camilleri said that through a strategic transformation into the Police Corp, a positive change is taking place to have a more inclusive and modern force which also represents society even more. 

The Minister said that it is time for another big change to take place, which will see the Police Corp employing officers who have tattoos. He said that no talent should go to waste just because someone decided to get a tattoo, but this should still occur with clear regulations. Many, including some in the force, have called for such a change to occur and it seems as though Malta is moving in that direction. We’ll have to await for more information as to how this measure will come into place, but officers will seemingly get the chance to work and enjoy the body-art form.
