So, what did Anglu say exactly? And why didn’t he work out the sums ahead of his speech?

The Times´ live reporting at 7.05pm:

¨ 6.58 pm – Dr Farrugia says Transport Malta is paying 500 euros per coach for 20 coaches a day being rented out by Arrivato pick up people from places and take them to Valletta. How much will this service cost a year? This is what the people want to know.¨

The Times´ live reporting OF THE SAME MINUTE at 8.40pm:

¨6.58 pm – Dr Farrugia says Transport Malta is renting up to 20 coaches per day at €500 each to pick up people from bus stops because of the inefficient bus service. This will cost the country several million euro per year¨

Surely someone in The Times did not allow himself to change the MP´s words around because the first time round they sounded silly?

    Strange. Isn’t he a SUMMA cum laude?
