Opposition and PN leader Bernard Grech has called for a change in attitude for current and future PN members. Grech stated that faces should not be the first things to change, but it is instead a change towards a new attitude that is required. He added that the Nationalist Party is itself the point of change.

L-ewwel ma rridu nbiddlu hi l-attitudni – mhux biss l-uċuħ imma l-attitudni. Il-punt tat-tluq tal-bidla hu l-Partit…

Grech stated that those who do not have the right attitude, whether youth or older, are not welcome in the PN party. The attitude that, according to Grech, the PN needs, is one of sincerity and humility. It is also an attitude that accepts not knowing, that does not think itself better than anyone else and that does not think that only it can govern a country.

This statue, dubbed ‘Christ the Protector’, will be even bigger than its counterpart. Being built in Encantado, a small town in Brazil’s southernmost state, Rio Grande do Sul, it will stand 43 meters (141 feet) tall.

The local organisation building it is Friends of Christ Association (AACristo), and said that it will be the third tallest statue of Jesus in the world, following a 249-foot statue currently being constructed in Mexico and a 172-foot monument in Poland. The construction is set to finish by the end of this year, as predicted by the sculptor Genesio Gomes Moura and his son Markus Moura.
