The Malta Independent quotes the chief executive of the small business chamber (GRTU) as saying that the what businesses are facing now is worse than the 2008 recession. 

In another story, the newspaper quotes Nationalist Party leader Adrian Delia urging the president to intervene ‘when the prime minister becomes a tyrant'. 

In-Nazzjon also quotes Dr Delia as saying that the main aim of the Nationalist Party was the country’s best interest. In its second story, it reports on the eviction faced by the 22 children.
