In reply to ciccio. If they give the value of their assets the public would know that they are millionaires.

What about Edward Scicluna’s boat? Are they not obliged to list boats in declarations of assets?

Best one is declaring a family tomb as an asset.

Edward Scicluna forgot to list his sailing yacht, Meltemi. Admittedly it’s not much of a yacht, but it’s an asset isn’t it?

The PM earned €42,075 last year.

The most expensive thing he ever bought in his life was a handbag for his wife, he said in an interview.

His house was given to him by his parents, when he was still in his early 20s, so no loans.

He’s on a diet of “naqa’ salad.

So how is it that he has only €70,000 deposits in banks, when he had such a good salary and benefits for four years as an MEP? How did he blow it all?

Why wasn’t he more specific about that bank deposit, like his colleagues were: e.g. €20,000 BOV, 25,000 HSBC , €25,000 Banif?

I am not at all convinced.

How is it that Louis Grech collects a Malta pension and Edward Scicluna does not? Did he forget to declare his old age pension? Is dementia setting in?

These declarations are a joke.

They are incomplete in many respects.

The values of the assets are not consistently given.

There are many assets declared which should be income yielding, but the corresponding income does not appear declared.
