What are we skinning? The spontaneous street party which erupted in the wake of the Hamrun Spartans winning the Premier League, in full violation of COVID-19 regulations but with the apparent blessing of the Environment and Planning Minister, who was photographed together with club owner and prime destroyer of Gozitan rural and urban landscapes Joseph Portelli.
Why are we skinning it? Because it’s a fantastic opportunity to pinpoint exactly what the country’s true priorities are.
COVID has certainly allowed for plenty of that, hasn’t it? Yes, a pandemic will force you into specific corners of thought and action that the complacent churn of ‘normal’ life would otherwise have not.
