A funny thing happened in the news today. This morning the Times was informing us of the PLPN’s respective takings in the farcical “donations” to the needy parties race. This evening the magnanimous dudes at Triq Herbert Ganado relished a photo op while donating €1,000 from the record sales of the book about former “lijder” Eddie Fenech Adami to the Community Chest Fund. Apparently all copies of the book Inservi were sold out and PiN is expecting a new print run soon. It would have been a lovely piece of photo op info for Paul BO and the rest of the gang at the Christian Democrat Business Enterprise were it not for the fact that the news of a €1,000 “donation” to the Community Chest Fund inevitably jars with the €410,625 received by the Nationalist Business Enterprise in (untaxable) donation from the party faithful in the phone-a-thon on Sunday.
Essentially 1 in every 410 euros donated to the PN went to the Community Chest fund. A bit better than the Italian otto per mille don’t you think?
