Erk !, what a preposterous way to enter a discussion.

AQ, I find it very difficult to believe your story, such events in Cyprus are buried long in the distant past, the British (though possibly not quite as popular as they would like to be) are certainly not disliked to the extent you illustrate, TWICE in TWO DAYS ?, not on mate, sorry.

By the way, welcome to the forum and good luck with your postings (better luck than this one anyway )

Eliko

These instances are recent.

The English are not very popular anywhere, it's a cross we have to bear. However it seems to be very near to the surface in Cyprus.

Please elucidate

Most Cypriots are racist. You should count yourself lucky you are not black. There are a few exemptions but they only go as far as to underline the trend.

[RichardB]

This 'old chestnut' seems to rear its head with monotonous regularity on the forum. Some people just seem to post to antagonise others. In all my time visiting and living in Cyprus over the last 30 years I can honestly say that racism on the island is far less rife than in the majority of other EC countries I have visited. Indeed as a Brit I have suffered far less discrimination in Cyprus than my wife who is Cypriot has in the UK.

Is it worse then?
