Malta waiting for next political shit-storm like it’s 10 Netflix premieres

Maltese people are waiting for the next chapter in the ongoing political shit-storm as if it’s 10 Netflix premieres set to be released simultaneously.

Last week, it was revealed that hundreds of WhatsApp messages exchanged between Yorgen Fenech and various prominent political figures would be exhibited in court at some point in October, as the compilation of evidence against the man accused of ordering the murder the Daphne Caruana Galizia gathers pace.

Meanwhile, an American financial crime blogger has claimed that two unnamed cabinet members are collaborating with foreign law enforcement agencies.

“I can hardly contain my excitement. It’s going to be like if 10 of my favourite Netflix shows each dropped season premiers at the exact same time,” said Jennifer Balzan, 24, from Siggiewi.

“Imagine if Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, House Of Cards and Battlestar Galactica all announced they’d the returning with new episodes. That’s how hyped I am. When you think about it, the storylines probably wouldn’t be different from what’s actually happening, minus the spaceships,” agreed Robert Spiteri, 35, from Sliema.

“It’s been a shit summer because of Covid, so I don’t even care if September speeds by, just so we can find out what’s in those messages,” said Lorraine Scicluna, 42, from Mellieha.

“I just want an excuse to protest, to be honest. It would be nice to get out of the house and throw eggs at some corrupt cunts,” said Matthew Bonello, 32, from Dingli.

“I’ve spoken to this website before about how much I fantasise about seeing Konrad Mizzi in handcuffs. Now there’s the possibility of seeing him in an orange jumpsuit too? I think I would literally explode,” exclaimed James Caruana, 36, from Rabat.
