Vince Farrugia brands Budget 'double-faced'
GRTU director-general Vince Farrugia brands Budget 2011 “double faced”, arguing that tools government is using to address deficit are 'not correct'.
In his first comments to MaltaToday, Farrugia said that government has failed to address the burdens SMEs have been facing for the last two years. He argued that a rise in fuel and increase on tourism VAT will put small businesses, yet again, into a dire situation.
"It is a pity that government seems to be more focused on the high end earners such as betting companies, auditors and accountants... it is a double-faced budget," Vince Farrugia said.
