PEO had 2000 Turkish-Cypriot members, a number equal to those belonging to Turkish-Cypriot unions.
That was a 50% split wanting to segregate themselves away from the GCs ...
Was this the first real sign the TCs wanted their own Administration?

The historical facts show that the Cypriot people are forgiving people and do not seek revenge for things that happened in the past, but are also people who appreciate democracy and human rights and are always willing to fight against those who are trying to deprive them from these rights.
Was that the same democracy and human rights you dished out during 1963 and 1974?
You and the British did not allow democracy and human rights. On the contrary you forced a system which was based on segregation and racist discrimination, which naturally failed.
Only because you held a gun to my head, burnt down my home, discriminated against us and kidnapped and killed us....safety in numbers ever heard of that? Do you think we wanted to live in squaller, people will think that it was Butlins and you were the blue coats dishing out positive democracy...far from it you made our lives hell on earth. Time you admitted that your actions were the cause of todays division but you are so blind that your mindset will ensure this island is divided for many more years to come.

If you read the whole link, you would have seen the disquite among some TC union members regarding the Unions support for Enosis. There was no way they would support Enosis. Remember a year or more so ago, this topic had come up. They feared blosk voting support for Enosis.
