Protest in Nicosia?

Postby CBBB » Wed Jun 02, 2010 9:20 am

Hundreds (well, lots and lots) of cement lorries heading for the centre of Nicosia!!!

Are they going to cement the whole place over or are they protesting about something?

They were protesting about the use of tachographs to record their speed amongst other things.

Well theyve been around elsewhere for a long time, and its not called the spy in the cab for nothing.
I dont think Cypriot drivers will be able to cheat them, many tried and failed before....
they can even be prosecuted on the evidence of a tacho disc.........
The only thing they wont do is tell officials if theyve just driven to any old bit of land and washed out their waste onto it..
