All six of Malta’s MEPs – Labour and Nationalist alike – broke ranks with their respective political groups last week when it came down to voting on the prospect of levying a 21% minimum tax on digital-based companies in the EU.
The move, seen as another step toward establishing an across-the-board common corporate tax so dreaded by Malta, was overwhelmingly endorsed by both the Socialists and Democrats, as well as by the European People’s Party.
