TMID Editorial: Malta feels as though it’s getting smaller

Sometimes it feels as though Malta is getting smaller and smaller. It feels as though there are hardly any outdoor spaces left where one can go to be alone and think, or where one can go with...

latest comment from John, 29/03/2023 06:15: Malta and Gozo are definitely uglier. They were a tiny rock to begin with and on present trends theyre gonna be 100% expensive ugly shithole rocks before too long. Our youth are leaving for better places. Sincere Thanks to our patriotic and visionary politicians who sold the country down the drain.

latest comment from Paul Michael Cassar, 28/03/2023 14:23: We have just to tell thank you to the authorities for giving visas and work permits to their parents. Try to go to The Point and you think that you are in Benghazi! The authorities are ruining our future and that of our sons and daughters with all these foreigners. If someone thinks that Malta is a safe country then they must think twice as it is no longer safe. The authorities have betrayed the Maltese people!

MUMN prepared to increase directives, nurses and midwives 'told there is no money for them'

The Malta Union of Midwives and Nurses said Monday that it is prepared to increase directives should government fail to address the union’s proposals, claiming that government told nurses and...

latest comment from Danika Vella, 28/03/2023 06:08: The MUMN has grounds for protest, as nurses and midwives do deserve a rise in their wages.... like teachers, secretaries, carers, cleaners, physiotherapists, and other professions do given the rise in cost of living that is not proportional to the wage increase. Yet, the militant approach of Paul Pace and his insistence that nurses should have a better package than anyone else, and a promise that no other workers have better packages is bitchy at best, and downright criminal at worst. Why shouldn't other unions fight to better the working conditions of their workers - or at least, they can only do so as long as they don't have it better than nurses? Why compete? Paul Pace's MO is divide and conquer - he insists on a culture of "us and them", and instead of improving the nurses' working conditions, he is making them pariahs.
