Aug 23 2023 Share

Following the report by Times of Malta that, according to a Transport Malta whistleblower, the ID cards belonging to deceased foreign born Maltese citizens were used to vote for the Labour Party, the Nationalist Party has called for an immediate investigation into the allegations. 

The whistleblower claimed that the ID cards were handed to other foreign residents, with ‘thousands of euros being paid’ as part of the scheme.

Following this news, the Nationalist Party released a statement saying that this case should be investigated immediately. 

‘The PN expects the Electoral Committee to meet urgently and immediately investigate that which is being alleged by the person who was deep in the Labour Party.’

‘In the same way’, the statement continued, ‘Police Commissioner Angelo Gafa needs to ensure that the police corps investigate the allegations without any bias.’

The Labour Party dismissed the allegations, stating that the electoral process is overseen by a commission made up of representatives of the two major parties.

Aug 22 2023 Share

A joint effort by the environmental NGO ‘Coast is Clear’ and ‘The Convenience Shop’ successfully concluded the summer sea and coastal cleanup activity. 

‘Coast is Clear is an NGO dedicated to protecting our seas and coastlines from pollution, and its partnership with The Convenience Shop reflects a shared vision of safeguarding marine ecosystems for future generations.’

‘Under the guidance of Mark Galea Pace, founder of Coast is Clear, the diverse crew composed of individuals from various nationalities but all part of The Convenience Shop Group, embarked on their clean-up maritime mission. This multinational team collaborated seamlessly to target areas near the shore that are inaccessible by land, as well as strategic locations where sea currents notoriously accumulate waste.’

‘During the cleanup, over 500 kilograms of fishing lines and 16 bags of debris were painstakingly collected and removed from the sea and seashore. The recovered waste encompassed a range of discarded items, including torn nets, tyres, plastic containers, and various single-use plastics.’

The collected waste was disposed of responsibly, with the clean up highlighting the concern of ghost nets, which are abandoned and lost nets which continue to pose a serious threat to marine life.
