I think there could be an error in the statement issued by Garcia Perez, the head of the Spanish delegation to the S&D group.

The second sentence should read: “He did NOT give satisfactory answers . . .” As it is the sentence does not match the rest of the statement.

In reply to Spock. Konrad (and Muscat) will claim inexperience, as in Café Premier-gate, and if that is not accepted by the committee then they will go for their plan B, stupidity, however they will never admit criminal intent.

How will Muscat and Mizzi try to wriggle their way out of this one? I hope it won’t be by stirring the masses for Malta to leave the EU.

I just hope that justice will finally be served. I’ve had more than enough of seeing our corrupt government play the waiting game and think they can gloss over the Panama Papers scandal via cheap propaganda and rent-a-crowds.

In reply to Tabatha_White. Socar has been grinning all the way. The Euro 2016 ads on the pitch were full of Socar messages.

Konrad Mizzi and Joseph Muscat will be losing some sleep and a lot more weight if those are the sort of questions they are going to have to face.

It may be just Konrad Mizzi for the time being but with the European Presidency coming up I am quite sure Joseph Muscat will be scrutinized as well.

Isn’t there a conflict of interest on the Energy platform there?

Socar must be grinning.
