We believe that Censorship Laws in Malta concerning the Arts are out-dated and should be removed completely. Observers from the EU have already commented on these laws and described them as an obscenity against democracy, especially where theatre censorship is involved. We ask the competent authorities to remove these outdated laws at once. After all, these laws make us more similar to totalitarian states run by extremists than to European Democratic states.

    • These out-dated rules should have been abolished ages ago.
