Labour crony Andy Ellul has gone to Dubai with the Prime Minister

Labour Party crony and criminal lawyer Andy Ellul, a key member of the conniving inner circle that includes Robert Musumeci and Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando, is in Dubai with Joseph Muscat and Konrad Mizzi.

Ellul and his girlfriend Claudia Cuschieri, a former reporter with the Labour Party’s television station Super One, are now both on the state payroll in Michael Farrugia’s private secretariat (positions of trust). Farrugia, whose own girlfriend has been given a senior appointment as a director at Identity Malta, is the Minister for the Family and Social Solidarity.

In March 2013, Cuschieri moved straight from Super One to the Office of the Prime Minister, and later moved to Michael Farrugia’s secretariat.
