A woman has expressed her disappointment that the Egrant report is a lengthy, boring legal document and not an riveting page-turner of a novel.
After winning a protracted legal battle yesterday to receive a full, unredacted copy of the report, Opposition leader Adrian Delia decided to make the entire 1,500-page document available to the public online.
“Well I can’t say I’m not disappointed,” said Stephanie Dimech, 34, from Iklin.
“I was expecting it be an exciting story full of shocking revelations, complex characters, and heart-stopping plot twists that ultimately lead to us finding out who really owns Egrant. Maybe even some sex thrown in for good measure. But I didn’t even get past page 2.
“It’s bad enough that it’s written in Maltese, which I never read because it gives me a headache. But it’s mostly written in dense legalese. Couldn’t they have brought a ghost writer like Gerard James Borg on board to make it more interesting?
“Then my friends told me, ‘Don’t worry, just read pages 495 and 936 because they’re the juicy parts. Well, I didn’t understand anything in 936 except that it’s got something to do with China. And 495 is interesting because Keith’s talking about Daphne, but he flips back and forth between Maltese and English more often than Konrad Mizzi on cocaine. I never thought a guy from Bormla would code-switch so much.
“Anyway, I won’t be reading anything else by this judge again, I can tell you that much. Tigne Point Bachelors was much better.”
