Questions over Floriana street party (2)

In the article "Lovely" Street Party Fails To Draw The Crowds (January 2) it was reported that: "The lack of late-night public transport might have contributed to the low turnout at the New Year's Eve street celebration in Floriana." I would like to point out that in spite of the serious obstacles which the Floriana local council had to face, namely lack of late-night public transport and the police objection to the closure of St Anne Street, the event still proved to be a major success.

This notwithstanding , no one can deny that, should late-night public transport have been available and should a police no-objection have been issued in time, the street party in question would have been a more resounding success.
