I’m not even sure of that.

Thinking independently, would you lend money to a person who as security offers a developed plot of land not the property built on it with half the developed property belonging to third parties ?

I don’t think you understand. It is NOT a loan, but a DEBT.

And no, it is not “amply secured”, which is why the bank is worried.

In reply to Joe Bloggs.

Pierre Portelli is the common denominator between The Malta Independent and Adrian Delia.

Journalists and editors should maintain their independence and avoid being involved in political campaigns.

This applies to Pierre Portelli as much as it applied to Saviour Balzan (who managed John Dalli’s campaign).

It’s actually worse than that. He wanted her power of attorney to acquire liabilities – and if you check Malta Today, today, you’ll see that he acquired a great number of liabilities after getting that power of attorney.

He is still a dark horse to me. Said doesn’t really do it for me either. At this juncture I am only voting to keep Delia out. Hopefully by the actual time of voting I would have made an informed decision.

In reply to Daphne Caruana Galizia. In truth I have never met the man, but I intend to since I see him as the only leader who can give the PN the renaissance it desperately needs.

I know them well enough to say that they would not allow that to happen. Her mother is still alive and working, so Dr Vella de Fremeaux has no actual interest herself. I think it’s safe to say that they have no idea she gave him a power of attorney or that she is liable for millions in debt. They are very astute people who would regard that as dangerous folly.

You are too closely involved with him at a personal level to be thinking straight.

You are entitled to your opinion but I would widen the scope of your research beyond the spin on this page before you make any conclusions. Follow what the man is saying and compare him to the other contenders.
