the upper house is made up of 5tcs and 5gc seats, the risk is if 1 seat goes to the GCs dues to their moving into the TC state we have lost any effective say in our own future. isnt that risk to you?
YES! I think you misunderstood what I said. I meant I didn't understand why it's such a big deal for them what you are asking for....!
After our turbulent history I see it as fair that we get an effective say in what happens in the country....this is supposed to be a solution afterall...it should address everyones concerns, forever, and not leave anything to chance or the goodwill of the other!
If we're left with a constitution with loopholes you can bet the GCs will take advantage of it..they would eventually take control of the north too, I'm sure they would think of some cunning plan, like selling their properties to Greeks only.
Saying that I don't think it's fair to restrict them in where they move to either...nor do I think it's fair to leave TCs at the GCs mercy...
Gosh, I just don't know what a perfect solution would be...
Don't be fooled democracy can be manipulated to give GCs what they really want and that is total control of the whole island, they can use plans like the one Kikapu has put forward to go through those loop holes and believe me they will at the first opportunity they get. He disguised this danger under the "true democracy" banner and arrogantly declared its the bst deal we deserve. Now can you see where his priorities are, so can you trust anything he says? As you quite right state this is supposed to be a solution where there are safeguards and guarantees to ensure both do not operate outside of the set guidelines, I to do not understand why GCs do not want to allow safeguards if they do not intend exploiting them, obviously they have other plans and are not sincere in wanting to compromise in order to find a solution.
