I do not think that the value of this purchase even requires a call by tender. Just normal behaviour of hypocrites.

Why 960 euros? Carnations don’t cost 10 euros each.

Perhaps they’re cheaper? Dan il-gvern jaf jitqammel fejn irid.

This is so ridiculous. Are we supposed to say how transparent and fair this government is?

Claudette Buttigieg should show up with 100 roses and distribute them herself – mela bit-tender.

Gvern x’hih maz-zghir, €40.00 kollox. B’min tridu titnejku? Jien lest li nixtrihom minn buti u immur naghtihom jien personalment. Tender tal-qamel. U nghid jien Ram Tumuluri m’ghandux bizzejed flus biex johroghom hu? ISTHU jekk tafu. No vote from me.

In reply to Philip. When I visit my Mum's grave I always buy seven carnations for € 2.50. What the bastards are saying here is that they are issuing a tender for a value of €34.28.

These mad tenders are actually quite common in our public (government) procurement system. Here they are obviously using the same procedure. The cost of publishing and awarding this tender, plus the quoted price of the winning supplier can make those carnations more expensive than the mother’s stay in hospital.
