i am not sure that broadcasting Strina from a newly restored, precious Verdala Castle is such a good Idea. I get the feeling that the President is too utilitarian with our national treasures and inheritance. There are other venues such as Ta' Qali, the sport centre at Cottonera, or the Pavilion at Kordin. I'm sure I have not exhausted the list. Crowds and palaces don't go together.

"More than 50 per cent preferred l-Istrina to be held on Christmas Day, 35 per cent did not give an opinion and 15 per cent preferred l-Istrina to be held on Christmas Day."

What percentage preferred and what percentage didn't?
