The garbage is being cleaned up gradually as for the claims of misspending government funds, well welcome to what goes on all over the world.

Er... it's actually illegal in most countries to siphon off public money for party election purposes. But I never thought you'd understand that. Corruption is so endemic in the pirate state that it passes as normal to you.


Greece is in your beloved EU, look what happened there so stop harping on about corruption the Greeks are the experts.


Hey, all of a sudden VP looks to the Greeks!

If only ....

According to reports the strike has been 'banned' by the occupation authorities. Now the TC Trade Unions have called a 'strike' in support of the strikers (who have been banned from striking). Things are hotting up.

All Turkish Cypriot newspaper covers the issues extensively. Following are the front-page titles of the papers:

Haberdar: "Chaos"

Star Kibris: "Civil war in the capital"

Vatan: "Tension occurred in the Lefkosia Turk Municipality"

Havadis: "No Salary but whipping"

Yeni Duzen: "Lefkosia is like Athens"

Ortam: "Incapable government"

Halkin Sesi: "It should not be like this"

Volkan: "Battlefield"

Bakis: "Misfortune"

Gunes: Kucuk: "Common sense should win"

Kibrisli: "We are becoming a second Greece"


Blimey things are worse than I thought...
