My thanks to all readers and to those who play a big part by making the comments-board lively and humorous but also pertinent and interesting, and by sending in memes, photographs, anecdotes and information that so often help with putting the pieces of puzzles together.
Let’s keep it going. OK, siehbi? ORRAJT!

If it was not for your unrelenting efforts in your own time to publish whatever the PM and Mallia tried to bury, the Don would still be the Interior Minister.
Wit a sec, actually I think he still is? tsk tsk
Ok take your time Daphne !
From strength to strength. Congratulations, Daphne.
Keep up the good work. Thanks to this blog the truth has emerged and I am sure there is more yet to be uncovered.
The only real source for a critical analysis of the government’s deeds. Brava!
Well done, Daphne.
Brava; bravissima.
Prosit, Daphne. You are simply very good. If it was not for you we would not know anything. Keep up the good work.
“Sparajt l-fuq sebitna!”
“U ijja, orrajt.”
I’m not in the least bit surprised.
Well done, Daphne – also for getting a mention on Net TV.
One for each euro Manwel Mallia had “taht il-mitrah”.
You are just great, dear Mrs Caruana Galizia.
Congratulations Daphne!
You are SIMPLY THE BEST!
THE ONLY SERIOUS CHOICE!
Well, I’m not surprised. I come here to read about the story behind the story.
This is one of the few places that offers insight and pertinent comments about what’s happening in the country, not to mention the occasional exclusive story.
Well done and keep it up.
Siehbi, fuq kollox prosit ghall-professjonalita’ u s-serjeta tieghek.
Our thanks should go to you for keeping up the scrutiny on this government of thieves and scoundrels.
Iwa hi! Nkomplu sejrin hekk hi!
And no ads on your site. You might be missing out on extra earnings.
Keep it up, Daphne. You are a thorn in their backside and we are grateful to have someone like you.
Thank you for giving us a safe place to vent and share information.
This website is a Godsend.
Agreed, siehbi.
You can say that again.
You can say that again … Thank you Daphne.
This blog went down for a few minutes yesterday night – around 10pm!
547K is just ‘Fenomenali’!
Special thanks to the meme people for creating some colour out of the Malta’s political greys.
Thank you for the research you do. This is one sight I always trust for information and thank you for your courage in speaking out.
I’m not a recurring visitor to this website, however when there’s some breaking news worth knowing more about, I know this blog is the one to read.
Thank you for sharing information with us. Pity you are the only one out there doing this. We want to see more journalists like yourself (from all sides of the spectrum) putting their necks on the line to publish FACTS.
Tip ‘o hat, Daphne.
You are the one and only. They know you are good and trustworthy. Since they are fake they will try to hinder you with their powerful positions. By doing so they look desperate and stupid.
God bless you.
I don’t trust anyone except you to know the real facts.
Not surprising – with your guts you are unique.
Thank you, Daphne – yes, keep it going because we will not know half of it if it wasn’t for you.
Thank YOU, Daphne.
(Sorry, forgot how to italicize).
Many, many people are very grateful for this site, thank you.
But the biggest thanks should go to the Labour Party. Without their shenanigans, people would ignore politics. But Joseph and co can’t help themselves supplying grist to your mill.
At this rate you will soon surpass PSY and Gangam Style. Got bless!
As Konrad would have said – fenomenali!
On the subject of breaking records, the PN collection campaign last Sunday was also a record breaker.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you, Daphne
Grazzi ta’ kollox.
“OK hanini.”
Why does Sheehan in most of the telephone conversations get treated like some frail schoolboy who has to be sweet-talked? Or is it just my impression?
This site is the only sane and civilized Maltese cyberspot around.
Well done, Daphne. Your tireless efforts are greatly appreciated.
You are a leader and people with a head on their shoulders admire your frankness, and your tenacity.
Thank you.
Thanks, Daphne This is the only way we can get the truth.
Alla hares ma kinitx din il-website ghax kieku ma nkunu nafu kwazi xejn.
Thanks and keep up the good work.
Keep it going, Daph. Well done for your work!
Great blog
Superb

Three cheers for the lady who burns the most midnight oil. She gives us hope, that after all this mess there will be light again.
Dearest Daphne…………grazzi mill qalb.
Prosit tassew. You can truly say that Malta yesterday was tuned to your blog and Net yesterday.
We are the ones who should be thankful to you, Daphne. Keep up your excellent work.
Well said and prosit ta’ kollox.
So the saga is finally over. Or, at least Part 1 is over.
Simon Busuttil, quite rightly, thanked the ‘independent media and the PN media’.
I sincerely hope he was referring to you as the independent media, even if he couldn’t say so. Or could he?
Anyway, although I haven’t commented, I have read each and every post and comment and wish to thank you for your untiring work to get the truth out.
Amen to that
Wasn’t this 3 week wait a great distraction from the electoral power station deadline? Could it have been intentional?
Thank you, Daphne. I read your Running Commentary each morning whilst sipping a cup of coffee. You really make me laugh sometimes; many times you are much better in posting news than most newspapers. Keep it up.
All thanks to you Daphne, for your excellent reporting. Thank you.
The whole nation is aware where to find news, commentaries, different views and above all, truth.
Well done, Daphne and thanks for the hard work.
Daphne, 500,000 of yesterday’s views were by Manwel Mallia alone.
New target now set for 600,000 views.
Well done. Keep it up.
I have become a self-confessed addict to this blog. It is the best news portal and real time reporting on the net at present.
I sincerely would like to thank you, dear Daphne, for the professional way you do your investigative work.
I wish you a healthy, prosperous and happy future.
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year 2015.
Thanks again.
Now we have it from the prime minister Joseph Muscat and his three wise men that Daphne’s website publishes the truth while Muscat’s DOI churns out lies and cover-ups.
Thanks and well done, Daphne. All Maltese of good will are indebted to you for doing your bit in keeping this country free from sleaze.
Thanks Daphne. I do not comment too often on your blog but I follow it devotely. You have single handedely revived the story of David and Goliath. Prosit.
Daphne,
I am an American living in Australia and have been following the events and how you have been reporting them. I applaud your style of journalism.
We need you here!
You’re just awesomely incredibly courageous! I bet you they’ve hired someone as a favour and they spend the day just reading your blog.
