Democracy only when it suits..

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

Perhaps, Zan, I am simply as you claim "nice but dim", but I honestly cannot understand what the issue is here. Shortly after I received my residence permit, I applied as a resident British citizen for a voting book so that I could vote in municipal and EU elections. I was told that I would first have to obtain a Cyprus ID card. I duly applied for an ID card, which was issued fairly promptly. I was subsequently able to obtain a voting book. I voted in the last municipal elections, and experienced no difficulty whatsoever in doing this.

At least in Cyprus , there exists appropriate channels for obtaining your democratic rights , does it also exist in the occupied part of Cyprus , or may be it exists in Turkey !!!


That's the way to do it Miltiades..Look the other way...Then again why change the habit of a life time...16 years of marching under the Greek flag and only last year you decide you had enough.....they do discourage against training old dogs though!!! :roll: :roll:

For the umpteenth time may I just make clear again for you Plonker.
You can use the Greek flag to wipe your arse as far as I'm concerned , its no shit of my arse , and you can do the same for the Turkish flag.


You have no right to be speaking about the Greek Flag in such a way.

That flag still has special meaning to our Ethnos. You don't care about it because you have already sold out and become a Turkish, Anglo American Zionist.

My "ethnos" is CYPRUS , my flag is that of my Ethnos , related as I'm to Greece , how I don't really know or care , I should perhaps refrain from making derogatory remarks on an object that many of my compatriots highly respect , I apologise for my comments on both flags .

On Wednesday when I read the Cyprus Mail article which started this thread, I popped in to the District Officer's building in Nicosia to check on the need to apply separately to vote in the European Parlimentiary Elections and they wondered how I had found out that this was necessary.

So I explained to them about the article, and although they knew about the requirement due to a circular, they had not yet received the forms. So they photocopied the one on the circular for me and I became the first person in Nicosia to register for this, as I was also the first non-Cypriot in Nicosia to register to vote in the Municipal elections.

Thanks for pointing this out. I had better go to our district office to register for the European Parlimentiary Elections.

SO Zan's pissed off cause you need to have a Cyprus ID to vote in Cyprus?

Is this the latest murderous crime the Cypriots have committed? It just shows everyone how desperate these partionists are to dig something bad up. Here is a grown man from Hackney who's pissed off cause EU nationals living in Cyprus have to get an ID before they vote....sad or what?
