John, what Zurrieq needs is a PN candidate from the locality itself, unabashed by Labour&#039;s two prospective ministers.

Jozef, when Franco Debono showed up for drinks in the PN club in Zurrieq, he objected to the presence of Herman Schiavone and Manuel Delia. They were asked to leave, and they obliged.
So next time take care who you vote for.]]></description>
