Maltese Farmers To Protest Again On Thursday

Maltese Farmers To Protest Again On Thursday
Feb 14 2024 Share

Farmers are gearing up for their second protest this Thursday, once again mobilizing their tractors and marching from Ta’ Qali to Valletta. Organized by the Għaqda Bdiewa Attivi and supported by various other food production-related organizations, the protest aims to build upon the achievements of their initial demonstration held two weeks ago.

Marked as the first organized protest by farmers in a generation, the previous event was part of a larger movement across Europe, where EU farmers voiced their concerns about stringent European regulations and trade agreements that disadvantage them against cheaper foreign produce flooding EU markets.

In anticipation of Thursday’s protest, farmers have stated their intention to present the government with several proposals aimed at mitigating the adverse effects of these EU policies.

The protest is scheduled to commence at 11:45 am, with farmers driving through Attard, the Mrieħel bypass, Marsa-Ħamrun bypass, Aldo Moro Road, Blata l-Bajda, and Floriana, concluding at Triq l-Għassara tal-Għeneb along Valletta’s waterfront. Following this procession, vehicles will be parked, and a press conference is slated to take place around 2 pm.

Maltese professional boxer Steve Martin is attempting another challenge to raise money for Kate, a young girl who suffers from a rare genetic disorder called Tatton Brown Rahman Syndrome (TBRS).

The condition causes physical overgrowth as well as developmental difficulties. 

Steve will be attempting to climb the Riviera Bay Stairs for 3 hours on the 25th of February 2024, with the aim of raising €300 every time a climb to the top is made. 

He invited all boxing clubs as well as businesses and sport organisations to join him in his climb challenge.

This is not the first time Steve has contributed to raising funds for Kate, having once raised upwards of €10,000 with a €1 for one burpee challenge in December of 2022. 

If you wish to contribute to the cause, donations can be sent on Kate’s Revolut or Bov Mobile +356 7905 1866

The track, as many know, calls Gozo a diamond in the Mediterranean – quite fitting as it is played during one of the biggest carnival celebrations in the Maltese islands. 

The crowd quickly jumped in to sing along to the track as they continued to party at G7’s Friday Carnival Gozo Edition party at Aurora, Victoria, Gozo.
