Jul 26 2024 Share

Maltese indie pop band ‘The Busker’ has released their comeback song, “Talking Back,” in collaboration with local jewelry company Carisma Collections.

In their official announcement, the band stated that the song is about the courage it takes to stand up for yourself when your self-respect is being threatened.

The band has been working on “Talking Back,” their first song of the year, and their surprise collaboration with Carisma for quite some time, even revealing that they have been keeping the song under wraps since December.

Their last release, “Bulletproof,” came out back in November 2023, so fans of the former Eurovision representatives have been eagerly awaiting their much-anticipated comeback.

Jul 26 2024 Share

During an interview with Newsbook’s Chief Dditor Matthew Xuereb, Prime Minister Robert Abela answered questions about a variety of topics, including platform workers.

While saying that this government was responsible for the legislation, he stated that hundreds of permits have been refused. “Our country has enough Y plate drivers and food couriers. We do not need more of these workers. The necessary workers will be used; a strategic decision has been made,” Robert Abela said, emphasising that every worker on the Maltese islands must be respected and treated with dignity.

When asked about the Vitals/Steward Hospital deal, Robert Abela said, “You have an opposition that continues to push a narrative that the government did nothing to defend the national interest,” while also explaining the government’s demands in relation to Steward and listing the investments made in the health sector.

In this interview, Robert Abela also announced that former OPM Chief of Staff, Glenn Micallef would be the Maltese Government’s nominee for European Commissioner, as well as the implementation of the Anti-SLAPP directive in the coming days. He spoke of elections within the Labour Party to appoint two new Deputy Leaders, as well as new reforms by this Labour Government.

The Prime Minister also detailed investment in electricity distribution and the energy sector, including investment in the second interconnector, offshore renewable energy generation, and the agreement with Libya.
