‘Look At Robert Abela’s Money’: PN President Hits Back At Gozo Minister After Rant At ‘Elites’
Nationalist Party General Council president Mark Anthony Sammut has responded to Gozo Minister Clint Camilleri’s warning against a “PN establishment” by reminding him how much money the Prime Minister’s legal firm earned from the Planning Authority.
“If there was anyone who had it made and who never had to work for anything, it is Robert Abela. He doesn’t know what work means, so much so that he was paid a shocking €17,000 a month because he did some work on Saturdays and Sundays,” Sammut said.
In response to Camilleri’s claim that PN “elites” view PL supporters as ħamalli, Sammut counter-argued that Justice Minister Edward Zammit Lewis had mocked PL supporters as “Ġaħan” in a chat to murder suspect Yorgen Fenech.
Earlier today, Camilleri told a rally that an “establishment” within the PN views PL supporters as “ħamalli” and “second-class citizens”.
“They often call us ħamalli, but do you know why that is? Because none of you here had it made from the start and you all had to work your fingers to the bone to get to where you are today,” he said.
Sammut’s comments echo criticism aired by Opposition leader Bernard Grech, who has tried to argue that the Prime Minister’s legal contract shows he is out of touch with ordinary people.
