If one thinks that The Malta Independent’s blogs are read mainly by local readers, he is mistaken. The experience of Dr.Simon Mercieca,one of our bloggers,confirms the impact that digital media have worldwide.

Dr Simon Mercieca’s blogs caught the attention of Dennis Relojo who is the person responsible for the Piirus.com blog;a blogmanaged bythe University of Warwick, which is one of the top Universities in the UK. Piirus.com was created by this University to bring researchers together from different countries.

Academics worldwide are invited to write about their research and air their opinions on topics of academic interest. Dennis Relojo contacted Simon Mercieca and asked him whether he would consider sharing his views on this blog. Dr.Simon Mercieca’s first blog for Piirus.com is about the timely topic of Brexit and how this referendum will have an impact on the way political statistics will be carried out in the future.
