What a way to end a career: as an octogenarian Labour government lackey

At this point, I would save the last remaining shreds of my credibility and step down instead of sinking into the mire of corruption and abuse created by the political party I helped bring to power, but not the valiant Martin Scicluna.

I quote from Times of Malta:

The chairman of the National Commission for Further and Higher Education, Martin Scicluna, this morning denied that standards of accreditation for universities in Malta were being reduced to accommodate the planned new university by the Sadeen Group.

He said that the legal notice issued two weeks ago had been in discussion for the past few months and it was only a coincidence that it was published on the same days when the American University application was announced.

It is just a coincidence, he said, because the legal notice has been in discussion for the past few months. So in other words, it has nothing to do with the University of Baksheesh.

What planet is he living on? He says that he doesn’t read this website, and then look what happens. If he did read it regularly, he would be up to speed on the fact that Sadeen Education Investment Ltd was incorporated in Malta in June 2014 and that its consultants, RSM Malta (the Labour Party’s auditors, as it happens) have been negotiating with firms of architects and working on feasibility studies for more than a year already.
