We would have had some more proof that Malta is being run by priests. If only Saint James Cavalier or the Manoel would see all those commenting against censorship attend one event a year! The last time there was Simon Schembri performing at the Manoel, the attendance was really poor. Let’s be frank, how many of us ever visited Saint James Cavalier, went to watch a play at MADC Santa Venera or went to queue for tickets for the Christmas panto?

[Daphne – X’ghandu x’jaqsam? A completely illogical argument: if you don’t read newspapers you can’t uphold the right to free speech.]

It provides the reader with logical arguments, fair, forward-looking, constructive and responsible comment. Also I liked it.
