Touching Christmas 2022 ad raises awareness about foster kids

Touching Christmas 2022 ad raises awareness about foster kids
Nov 10 2022 Share

The John Lewis Christmas advert ahead of the 2022 festive season aims at raising awareness about children in foster care – and boy, you better have tissues ready.

The advert was teased with the title of ‘The Beginner’, and is set to Blink-182’s ‘All the Small Things’. 

It follows a keen older man trying to learn how to skateboard. After lots of trial and error, and accidents, the man manages to get some tricks up his sleeve. 

But the kicker comes in at the end when the reason why he is learning the sport is revealed. The man gets the hang of it just in time for the arrival of the couple’s foster child who also loves skateboarding. 

John Lewis said it understood that not all foster carers had the benefit of knowing who they would be looking after in advance and that its broader campaign also featured “authentic voices of carers” and “young people with different experiences of a complex care system”.

Decision on voluntary euthanasia to be taken before legislature expires
Nov 10 2022 Share

The decision on whether or not to legalise euthanasia will be taken by the end of the current legislature, Prime Minister Robert Abela has recently revealed.

TVM show Popolin asked every MP for their stance on euthanasia for their latest episode. Despite not stating outright what he thinks about the matter, Abela said that the government will take a decision before the legislature expires in 2027. 

A national discussion on the potential introduction of voluntary euthanasia for people with terminal illness was pledged during the electoral manifesto. 

Abela said that the discussion will eventually amount to a decision being taken. With active euthanasia and assisted suicide currently illegal in Malta, the Nationalist Party came out against the decision. 

Opposition whip Robert Cutajar stated on behalf of the parliamentary group that the Nationalist Party has the stance of safeguarding people’s health from the moment of conception until their last breath.’
