It is the presidium organized at Castello da Sardigna Natione Indipendentzia.

"Behind the bars, said Bustianu Cumpostu, because for thirty years they have not been able to frame and decipher these statues that, also for the position of the arms detached from the body , they represented something inexplicable, not catalogable according to the schemes that until then had regulated the reading of the history of Sardinia ".

Distributed to passers-by and tourisms a flyer with the reasons for the protest. "Sardigna Natzione - it reads - it is not against the people of the Superintendency but against their function, a function clearly hostile to the Sardinian people, in fact enemy of the Sardinians, organic to extraneous interests and contrary to those of the Natal Sardigna". All this - the sit-in promoters continue - aimed at the enhancement of an archaeological and cultural capital perhaps unique in the world for territorial intensity, made of 1000 Stonehenge, created by the people whose history is a good of the whole humanity and wants to get out of the 'oblivion in which Italian nationalism is confined ".

The Sardinia's President, Christian Solinas, explained how are they ruling: "Surely we have done few press conferences and we will do few, we want the facts to speak, judge us by facts and not words ". The occasion was the birthday party, turning off the 98 candles on the cake of Italy's longest living party, said the Councilor for Urban Planning Quirico Sanna. The feast was in Porto Torres from 12 to 14 July.

The star of the evening was Christian Solinas. "No political party in Italy can boast 98 years of history - said Solinas - . It is an important number but our strength is that just when we celebrate our 98th birthday we are already thinking about the next 98. We owe it to the men who founded the Sardinian Action Party almost a hundred years ago, on their return from the trenches of the First World War. We must realize their dreams and we must do so even for those who, like us, believe that Sardinia has the clay in order to get out of the crisis. And that it can unite, without distinction between territories or factions. I am not referring to heavy chemistry or aluminum production, which are peculiarities of other territories. We must develop our strengths and create a region that can offer all Sardinians the chance to live in Sardinia without having to emigrate ».
