Another good comment

I’m starting to feel grateful for this shooting incident. It has woken up the media.
The media (this website excluded) gave the government a free ride for two years. Many in the media thought that the government was their friend but now they’re starting to realise that they were just being used as pawns and that the government doesn’t mind making a fool of them when it suits its needs.
During those two years, the government was doing far worse than covering up an unlawful incident. It was busy gaining control of Malta’s institutions leaving no system of checks and balances.
First, it sedated the media with cookies, leaked stories and lucrative contracts (hello there, Lou Bondi), then it stuffed the judiciary with people like Wenzu Mintoff and one of Owen Bonnici’s ex girlfriends, and then it took over the army and police force by measures like the ones discussed in this video.
Mintoff himself would have been proud, though he would have seized the banks too.

Perfect comment; and the concluding comment about Mintoff and the banks, superb.
Still I’m afraid that Muscat and Mallia will spin this dirty chapter in the Labour Party’s dirty book in way that the story will be neutralised, deodorised and put aside in the people’s brain and by the media.
These liars are capable of controlling minds and media because that is their line of expertise and this being the only way that they can garner votes, other than vote-rigging which I am sure will be an issue come next general elections.

Coked.
He says he has got the minister with him. So did he?
Sheehan doesn’t make any sense, tries to portray it as a hit and run, automatically leading the operator to think the car had left the scene, but doesn’t explain why he won’t go to the nearest police station, ‘ma nistax’.
All Sheehan wanted was the RIU, no questions asked, but what he just couldn’t afford was the Vauxhall to get away.
He just had to get to that car first.
Who is this Smith, apart from being one of the minister’s clients?
Who is this Smith? What is this Smith?
What was in Smith’s car?
What was in Sheehan’s car?
What’s going on?
Lies and corruption from Joseph Muscat to all still there supporting it.
This is a cover up from which this MLP Government can not recover.
Where is Smith?
Drugs?

Sheehan: “sparajt fuqu”
So Mallia knew from the outset that Sheehan’s shots were not aimed at storks but at a person.

Well said
Why is it that the more pieces are put in the larger the holes become?
Is it because more space is needed to accommodate all the lies?
Spot on, Matthew S.
Times of Malta has been undermined so much by this government that it is fast becoming irrelevant.
Malta Today doesn’t count. Its editor is too far gone in the credibility stakes.
I for one only bother purchasing The Malta Independent. I check the Times of Malta headlines on line and don’t even bother logging on to Malta Today when years ago I used to be a regular reader.
For how long has Stephen Smith’s UK-registered car been on the road? When did it enter Malta?
Were it not for the clear objective up front of massaging the whole incident for public consumption to the benefit of the government, why would the Police Commissioner agree to ditch his independence and meet the prime minister’s Head of Communications to churn a concoction of sorts when the Police have their own communications officer?
