    Throwing a bit of shade on their independence day I see.

    Get those solar panels up, Malta!

      Am maltese. The country is going to shit due to overdevelopment. Everything is being slowly torn down, and replaced by concrete blocks of flats. Hell, I’ve been living at my current place for 7 years now. In the short ~100m street I live in there has literally always been some construction project or other. heck, a new one just started a couple of weeks ago. 7 years…

      The point is that for the overwhelming majority of people, they simply don’t have a roof to put them on. And if you do, it’s only a matter of time before yet another permit is blindly granted for a neighbor to build an additional storey or two, putting your panels in shade, with no recourse or compensation.

        speak of the fucking devil. I just received an email. Yet another new permit has been issued for exactly what I just described, just two doors down from me.
