How nice of the prime minister to use public money so that Mario Camilleri doesn’t have to sell his house to pay his debts

This is Mario George Camilleri’s house in Tal-Virtu, with extensive grounds which appear to have taken over a large part of Wied L-Isqof.

Will everybody please stop focusing on the 5% commission which he negotiated for himself? That’s ‘only’ almost a quarter of a million euros.

In actual fact, he got half of 4.2 million euros (2.1 million euros) with which to pay his company debts. Others in that situation have had to sell their homes to make good for what they owe. No government ever bailed them out.
