For Bananiot and Jerry, who have the combined IQ of a Walls sausage!


You seem to be losing track of the initial argument which was a comparison of the benefit as a result of the number and type of immigrants that Cyprus and the UK have been exchanging over the decades!

Now from a financial/economic perspective, tell me… which of the two countries has benefited the most out of the foreigners they have absorbed from each other...

The UK, which has received some 250,000 mostly young and healthy Greek Cypriots in need of work, and many of which went on to establish businesses and create jobs for others thereby stimulating the economy?

Or Cyprus, which has mostly received around 70,000 old age British pensioners plagued with rheumatisms and other ailments and in need of the Mediterranean sun and plenty of healthcare!

The comparison is not even a comparison but a bloody British joke!

So they arrive in Cyprus, dont spend a penny to support the local economy, provide NO work for local pool cleaners, shop keepers, bar and restaurant owners,Car tax, Petrol stations etc etc, have paid into the NHS all their lives and you begrudge them because they get their adult nappies before you

[BOF]

UK citizens visiting or moving permanently in Cyprus are, of course, well received & welcomed, a healthy boast to the local economy. The main reason of this phenomenon is simple. They get their monies worth and some. They get value for the "buck". If there was another destination better than Cyprus, I bet you all of them would have gone there. Good weather year round, good food, healthcare, friendly locals, relative security and a myriad of other reasons that make Cyprus the most attractive destination in the Med sea.

So please, don't ever call this a favor, pity, good gesture, donation, charity or any other name you wanna give it.

And you can see all this from Toronto?? boy are you out of touch with reality.Did you ACTUALLY ever speak to someone who emigrated to this island? no i thought not.... hey G R when im talking to the toilet i dont expect the s**t to pop.up....

GR is discoverd for what he really is, a small wizard behind a big screen......

Nincompoop, if you don’t understand what a comparison is don’t open your mouth.

For a start "great economist" the GCs who moved to the UK are less than 0.25% of the UK population whereas the Brits in the ROC are about 10%, surely even you can work out the value of the relative spending power of the ex pat communities. Another poster has countered the mythical drain on ROC resources that you refer to.

More to the point, where do you think the majority of ex-pat Cypriots spend/invest their UK earned cash when they retire or holiday. At a guess more than half of my older UK Cypriot relatives have bought property in Cyprus with the money they earned in UK and their kids use them for holidays. In the old days it was with cash they had not declared to the UK taxman. My uncle used to say of those who built in the north "they stole the cash to build their houses and now the Turks have stolen it from them".

So the Cyprus Mail is a cesspit of misinformation and propoganda?

So I can rest assured that this is just another load of old propoganda and bollox then?

I do like the use of 'festering resentment' in relation to GCs though - seems to sum up their attitude about a lot of stuff, not just healthcare!
