Many took to social media to address the situation, calling for governmental action in regards to health restrictions. People, including CEO of Hugo’s Group Malta Luke Chetcuti, highlighted how given these regulations, people still met outside regulated bars and businesses where regulations are not necessarily going to be adhered to.

The news follows updates to reopening the entertainments sector, with the proposed roadmap eliciting quite a lot of criticism. Many are still calling to manage the situation better, as illegal gatherings are being increasingly reported.

Ryde’s low-cost travel means that you can navigate between the island’s landmarks hassle-free and as comfortable as ever.

  • Chill pool days

WATCH: Theresa May delivers chilling speech on harsh reality of COVID-19

Jun 11 2021 Share

On Thursday, British politician Theresa May delivered a chilling speech with regards to the harsh reality of COVID-19, going on to state that “global Britain is shut for business”.

May highlighted the fact that new COVID-19 variants will surface every year and if the government persists on not opening travel until there are no new variants, then no one will ever be able to travel ever again.

May concluded her speech by stating that “it is incomprehensible how one of the most heavily vaccinated countries in the world” is one of the most reluctant to give its citizens their freedom and support.
