Nothing offends my sensibilities more than the utter contempt for the intelligence of the Egyptian people represented by the Gamal Mubarak project, but the project is merely a symptom: of the extreme personalisation of political power, of social privilege run amok, of the normalisation of nepotism in every profession in Egypt today, of an unprecedented level of derision in the state’s dealing with society.

So mil akher as we say, who is Gamal bey Mubarak, and why should I believe anything he says? And who cares what he thinks? And how is it that an absolutely unaccountable, unelected, unworthy, illegitimate, unqualified, and uncongenial banker has taken center stage in our public life and proceeded to instruct us on the future of our country? ‘Agabi.
