As for the British enslaving the Cypriot people,you really are thick! The British were the first colonial power to stamp out slavery - beginning in 1806,when slavery was outlawed in the U.K. itself,& in 1833,when slavery was outlawed throughout the whole British Empire.
The Cypriot people should be grateful to the British,as they established a very strong administrative system of government,& taught the Cypriots how to govern themselves.The British have left a very strong system of government in all of its former colonies,including India & Pakistan.

The British have also created huge conflicts around the world - infact pretty much whereever they've gone! Having said that I do agree that Cyprus did benefit from British rule - BUT - ultimately Britain was quite happy to ferment trouble in order to protect it's interests - that's the cold harsh reality of the world i suppose but hardly endearing.

Eracles,that's a load of shite! The worst troublemakers that have caused trouble wherever they've settled are the Irish Catholics.They're the most racist people in Europe.I've met quite a few Irish Catholics out here in New Zealand,& they're just as thick as the ones in both countries on the isle of Ireland,& that IS a fact! I'm of Scots & Orcadian descent,& I am also from a fiercely anti-republican background.The Maori Nationalists & their lowlife republican allies have had their way over here for too long.

Didn't you know that Gerry Adams is the isle of Ireland's version of Adolf Hitler,& Martin McGuinness is the isle of Ireland's equivilant of Josef Goebbels?
The difference between Adams & Hitler was Hitler was a faggot!
Both EOKA & EOKA B were barbarians - the Cypriot equivilant of Sinn Fein/I.R.A.!
I'm also a Prod who resents the New Zealand Government's shite foreign affairs & external relations policy,as they persist in maintaining ties with countries whose governments are serious human rights abusers,such as China,Iran,& Turkey,just to name three.
