Hi Tiggy,



From what I have read, no one has mentioned the Tories! All the comments seen to reflect anger at Labours pitiful and highly damaging performance, since they have had the reins!

Well, I think Labour have done a first class job!

It's due to their actions that my family and I now live in a friendly, safe, sunny country, where my kids (5 and 17months) can play outside safely.

Hello Tiggy



You want to get together with fredred maybe you can both revive the flagging

labour party.



It seems that there is only you two are of the opinion that the drop jaw Brown and teflon Tony have done a good job.instead of ruining the country over the last ten years

Can you tell me where to get those rose tinted glasses you wear.

Hello John,



you can not kid an old kidder!



I can not tell people what and not to put on this board. But british politics may well not be one.



I am not a Labour activist, just a realist. "since they have had the reins" the country has more people in work, low interest rates, minimum wage, rising pension in that my mother gets £400 a year heating allowance, which under the last government was £10 if the weather was below a certain temp for 3 days or more! more old bill, nurses, and a lot more. The whole world is paying more for oil and food and it pains me to have to do also. They have got a lot wrong....but thats politics!



Greed of people spending/borrowing more than they earn had led to the current mortgage and Northern Rock fiasco. Boy am I glad to get my £27:84p out before it went bust.



As for he piss take of the eastern europeans and others ,European law gives them the right to go to other member countries etc and ponse., Mr Heath took us in to the common market and we are still in it.



we were led in to a war lie by the americans and a lot of backside licking went on. sad for the Iraqi people but a madman has gone....



Don't forgret our great "Iron Lady" maggie that started a deliberate war in the Falklands by taking a lighthouse vessel (spy ship) that was alleged to have cost over 1 Million + a year to run, leaving the door open for an invasion that was going to come. the Yanks stood to one side as they knew we were totally wrong. Our french partners exported the Exocets that killed our brave lads on the ships. Could go on, but it is time to stop now.



Gordon Brown is not the man to lead the Government and possibly the country. He did well as chancellor, I still feel he runs that as well. It may well be time for a change, but i have a feeling Mr Cameron will not be a whole lot better.



I know that I may put a few of the blue rinse supporters backs up here, but reply to my e-mail address on my members info if you want to discuss further and leave the cypruss44 site for related issues of the Island.



Nice day to you all.



T.

Watty,



You posted your comments before I had finished my article (rant!)



You being an alleged company director do not seem to be very bright. I had not mentioned anything about the labour party. I voted Conservative in two elections in 79 and 84. I woke up to what most politicians are all about soon afterwards. so I give you the opportunity to apologise for you insulting remark to me. You can do it on my e-mail addrees to save embarrassment on the site.



I do also do not wear rose tinted glasses, would not want to look stupid. If you get my meaning.

Hi Tiggy,



I thought it was a party political broadcast on behalf of the labour party until I read your posting to Watty.



It is Company Directors as you so say, that have feasted at the Captains Table of capitalism



and the rest of us have had to live off the crumbs. It is time for a change!



Since Tony (The Sedgefield Gargoyle) adopted all of the Conservative policies and inherited



an economy, that was back on the right track, I havent know which way to turn to follow a



capitalist route Tonys shown us the way. The American lecture circuit.(you have to commit



the countries finest to war) as the cost of entry.



Now given that John Prescott (Deputy PM, with his finger on the neuclear button when they



were'nt stuffed down his throat) was only" a man with a knife and fork, looking for a



capitalist with a meat pie". It is a difficult situation to swallow (funny Prescott said that.)



brian24001 makes a very valid point. Where can we afford to live that is beautiful and safe



for children. It seems the UK after 10 years of labour,should not be up for consideration



I am donating my car to the Victoria and Albert museum, because it will not be an item the



working man can any longer enjoy. Priced out by New Labour.

guys

can you please tell me what releavance has the sodding uk council elections got to do with cyprus and this forum, i understand this is news that brits will talk about but most of the brits are living in cyprus so who cares!!!!!!!

at the end of the day do you guys personally think anything changes whoever is in power because they are all the same sh.t!!!!!



and if you want to talk politics then the country has been slowly on a decline ever since maggie lost her grip and her mind!!!! the early years of the labour government did a good job but the final few years of the tony blair reigme and this new idiot have not got a clue he is slowly turning labour into new conservite, all i hear from brits that the u.k is gone down hill because they let in all aylum seekers and foreigners at the end of the day its the british empire of old conqureing i mean liberating these far away countries now the u.k is reaping what they sowed!!!! and everyone says that the u.k is mighty but under the covers they are dicatated to by the e.u and the biggest puppet masters the U.S

things will get a whole load worse before it gets any better belive you me!!!! and im so glad i dont live there no more

Been checking my e-mail box and no apology so far.



I'm sure it will come, as 61 year old company directors from Shropshire are famous for making apologies for the gaff's that they make.

Erkan,



Again you have delivered a whole heap of common sense. My total respect to you. You get my vote!



This is a Cyprus forum and I will never make any more comments about any british politics again, unless it is related to Cyprus. (hope others follow)

calm down tiggy,calm down,every body has a right to there opinions be it

religon , race ,creed.or colour,or politics,? just because you dont agree with

there.views does it mean they should not voice there opinions!!perhaps you

would like too tell us,what we can discuss on the forum.i dont realy need to know. but have you signed the petition on the north cyprus embargo.or is this

just politics,that we should not get involved in why are ex pats leaving the uk in

droves,could it be that the recent goverment or captains of the ship have set

the scutterling charges,years ago! or do people just want a better way of

life.

I am a lot older and wiser than you so lets get that straight.

You say that there are more police, call one and see what the reply is up to 36 hours before they turn up

You say there are more nurses, there are 120 people dying from MRSA etc every day.

There are more quangos now than ever costing billions.

Greedy people is that somone who wants a better standard of life for there family.then ripped off by bank employees getting very rich.

Many people have forgotten the chance that the iron lady gave them the chance to buy there own house.

We are still exporting weapons and arms around the world not just the French





Yes i am a company director not alleged and very bright and proud to be so, i have worked for myself since i was 18 and built a succesful company, and paying a lot of tax and giving a job to many people, but not virgin converters.



So you voted conservative in 79/84 what since ?if no one then you have no right to critisise any ones point of view.



The only thing i can agrree with is Brown is not the man to lead the country, and i don't think Cameron is, but he can not do any worse.



You should read messages 2 3 5 and 6 again and see what i meant



As for an apology you can get ? and no i am not embarrassed to say that either.



Any further comments from you put them on my site.



Av a nice day

Watty

Hi All,



I thought a forum was " a place or meeting where public discussion is held"



I find that wherever UK politics and politicians are the topic, a lively debate takes place



which all can enjoy, or ignore (if you dont like the heading) As there is such a large ex pat



community in the TRNC a great deal of interest is usually generated. Control freaks should



not participate as an open forum gives everyone the opportunity to express their views.



Many people for example resent the rich pickings Company Directors have trousered over



the last few years, and I think they should be held to account, but I would fight to the end of



time, for people like "Watty" to have a chance to defend themselves, on the same "forum"



on which they have been accused. Long live free speech.

Should you not be watching the latest on the local elections on the TV so as to get an answer to the question that started all this bull@shit.

Erkan,

Despite the above being one of your best posts ever, they are still taking no notice of you. WHAT HAS IT GOT TO DO WITH CYPRUS? They are all as bad as one another anyway.

There must be MSN sites which cater for this sort of diatribe.

I'm with brian - the state of england is what made us move out here, I can't thank new labour enough! and as for people not being interested, I have to disagree - it reminds those of us who are lucky enough to live out here how bad it was, and for those that are still in blighty, whether they are thinking of moving out here or just coming for holidays - a reminder of (despite the gripes) how lovely it is in TRNC. Forum = a place to chat - whatever that chat might be - if you don't want to join in, its simple - don't.

hi guys

as usual this is getting debated by a few people who have diffrent views

i agree forums are here for people to discuss views and ideas aswell as help each other and you are all free to discuss whatever you want but there are certain forums and discussion boards where this can be carried on, like i said in my eyes this forum is for people who want to discuss cyprus either it polititcs, history or general stuff aswell as a bit of humour and i can understand some brits will discuss things that are going on in the u.k but it does not have to turn into polictical question time!!!!!

sometimes i do marvel at the expat community they put all their time effort and energy to argue i mean discuss about things like this rather than giving their full attettion to the real issue at hand cyprus and like what cruggs is saying signing petitions and supporting cyprus which most of you guys are living in or holidaying in

so go ahead waffling all day long about the u.k but lets all agree to disagree cos you will never change no ones view however right or wrong they are

regards

Older maybe......Maybe living out in the wilds of shropshire it takes 36 hours for a copper to get to an incident. I bet when the minimum wage came in you had to swallow hard giving people a half decent wage at the cotton mill you are running.



your comments about being a company director and giving work to the locals, paying your taxes is typical of the old school way of thinking, do you wear harris tweed jackets with leather elbow pads along with a wollen tie done up as far as you can get it?



Just proves that an old wanker like you, that is alleged to be bright and proud to be so, can not apologise for something that he has done wrong.



Now we can debate by e-mail as I first asked for.

Sorry to other users for using the word wan@er.

Erkan,



Are you suggesting that people should not share humour on this site?



I think some of the contributors are doing just that, as well as talking tongue in cheek?



If you think UK politics is not a popular topic just look at this thread, and how many contributors have posted over the last two hours. If you look back over previous postings (months) someone always objects to almost every subject. As has been said many times before



"You can't please all oh the people all the time"



Viva "Free Speech"



Whilst the site insists on subject headings, and forbids personal attacks. It is democratic.!



I am sure the contributors would not wish it any other way. I personally read all postings

and contribute wherever I can.

come guys

it looks like none of you can debate a simple thing like council elections would hate to see what would happen if we discussed national elections!!!!



there is one thing i have learned over the years you can not debate or discuss two things politics and religon these subjects will alwyas get heated!!!!!

and it always seems that brits always agrue among themselves over such trivial things that dont make a blind bit of diffrence to them their family or how they live their life no wonder the u.k is going to pot

now guys if you cant discuss things like normal civil adults then i will delete this thread cos it seems it is not going nowhere

so please guys respect yourself and one another!!!!

THE WONDERS OF MODERN MEDICINE



An Israeli doctor said, 'Medicine in my country is so advanced, we can take a kidney out of one person, put it in another, and have him looking for work in six weeks.'



A German doctor said, 'That's nothing! In Germany, we can take a lung out of one person, put it in another, and have him looking for work in four weeks.'



A Russian doctor said, 'In my country medicine is so advanced, we can take half a heart from one person, put it in another, and have them both looking for work in two weeks.'



The English doctor, not to be outdone, said 'Hah!. We can take an arsehole out of Scotland, put him in 10 Downing Street and have half the country looking for work within twenty-four hours.

come on whats popular subject go to do with it some of you think that where to go and get curry paste is a popular subject!!!!! and yes this subject has had a few hits but is only dicuseed by a few people who are jumping into a argument where im trying to defuse it

but when subject gets a bit personal i have every right to step in being the only moderator on this forum and like i said waffle all you want on what you want but no need for personal tirade is there!!!!!

You make it sound like politics in the TRNC is in fine fettle and that there are no arguments, difference of opinions or debates that get out of control!!. is that the case?.

Must be the only country in the world that can boast that.



I kind of enjoyed the different opinions, humour, and even the odd insult, why is UK politics not in your opinion a valid subject for the forum.



I would hazard a guess that the biggest percentage of users on the forum are British , and although we live here in the TRNC UK politics still have a considerable bearing on our lives.



As for your statement "brits always argue among themselves over trivial things that don't make a blind bit of difference to them their family or how they live their life" etc etc, I find that a little insulting, I can just imagine your reaction if I had made such a general and unfounded statement about Turkish Cypriots.



I am with wynyardman on this, it is lively, funny, sad, interesting and it just dawned on me that a large portion of those using the forum still live in the UK.

To be fair Erkan, Gottheyips has a point.



I think the very reason this board works so well is the fact it can cover so many issues not only from TRNC but from all over the world and because we all don't go around patting each other on the back the debates can become lively and interesting , from my own point of view as long as we are able to mix some humour in amongst it then it avoids us all getting too serious and morbid.

of course cypriot politics is as dodgy as any other country especially british politics and like i said you can bang on about it till the cows come home because thats you freedom of speach but when things do get out of hand and a bit personal its time to draw a line on it, and people who live in the u.k and it directly affects them then they have every right to have their say but come on does anyone think honestly these local elections make a blind bit of dffrence to anyone who resides in the u.k or who are expats cos like i said it dont make any diffrence whoever is in power cos they are all the same sh.t!!!!

and for case if someone said something that was honest assessment about turkish cypriots i would not be insulted i would be the first to agree !!!! and remember im not just saying we as a nation in the u.k argue among ourselves on anything or everything as a off the cuff remark i lived was educated and worked in the u.k for over 28years so i have every right to say how i feel like what wyn said viva la free speach!!!!!!

and jim is right the forum does work well great for banter, healthy discussion that sometimes break out in to argument which sometimes livens up the forum!! lol but at least let us argue, discuss joke on things that has a bit more relavance to the subject at hand cyprus aswell the less meaninful subjects so keep it up guys

regards to you all

Jim.



You are right about not getting too morbid! Labour have lost over 400 seats.



Ken Livingstone has lost the London Mayors job to Boris.



Will you please pass that bloody rope! Anyone got the phone number of Pegasus Airlines?

Boris may well not be any better than Ken, but he will be a whole lot more entertaining

I say give Boris a chance!

Ken Livingstone is out of touch, Fact! He wants to try doing other jobs around the capital rather than Sitting in city hall with all his hangers on, with blatent corruption going on around him, but hey lets introduce another scheme that will hold businesses back in the name of the environment. that may just break even its administration costs in say 100 years.



Boris may seem thick but he wouldn't have got where he is now if he was!

Hello Erkan and all who had their say on this thread.



We should all be happy to have the chance to say what our thoughts are on any subject, without being cracked around the head by bullying thugs as seen on TVs around the world the last few months.

The bully boys of Mugabe, the chinese torch protectors etc, we are in a situation in which millions of people would be more than happy with.

The people who air their views on a subject as dodgy as polotics must be able to take stick as well as give it, without making threats or rude comments to any other person.listen to PMs time in commons that sums it up.

We all know the majority of people who enter polotics are in it for their own means, not the person or persons who voted for them.

There is probably no country in the world without corruption.



If any one has seen other sites associated with Cyprus you will see that what has been (discussed) on this thread is very mild, but that should not detract from the fact everyone should have the freedom of speech without the rude and sometimes stupid comments from other users who argue with their own views.



I would think that most people who have moved to NC have done it for one reason to have a better life without feeling threatend when they walk down the street wherever that maybe,without being afraid to put your wheely bin out with a bit of rubbish sticking out the top and getting a police record as a guy had last week in the UK.



Come on if we all reared up at a bit of stick it's time to go to the funny farm



Kind regards to all

Watty,



If you can catch them, I know a man who is a pheasant plucker.



He doesn't file on this board though.
