Greece and Cyprus have done the most for pulling the EU together these last few years.

Together, through painstaking trials and tribulations, they raised the profile of the EU, to come to the attention of the Nobel Committee - who have seen their work and judged it to be good for a stable, peaceful Europe.

Bravo!

What a misleading heap of garbage, topped off with extra sewerage waste just in case you missed the utter stupidity!

[Cap]

So the entire useless EU won it?

Yes Christofias did all the dirty job and the useless Brussels white-collars have a share to it.

I hate to point out that the only time Greece is mentioned in the article is: -

Greece has struggled with austerity cuts imposed in the debt crisis

And Cyprus isn't mentioned at all!

What a bizarre fantasy world you live in...

Here you go....

UKIP Leader Nigel Farage has slammed the decision to award the Nobel Peace Prize to the European Union.

"You only have to open your eyes to see the increasing violence and division within the EU which is caused by the Euro project" he said.

"Spain is on the verge of a bail-out, with senior military figures warning that the Army may have to intervene in Catalonia. In Greece people are starving and abandoning their children through desperate poverty and never a week goes by that we don't see riots and protests in capital cities against the troika and the economic prison they have imposed.

"The next stage is to abandon the Nation state: the awarding of this prize to the EU brings it into disrepute."

Mr Farage added, " The last attempt in Europe to impose a new flag, currency and nationality on separate states was called Yugoslavia. The EU is repeating the same tragic mistake.

"Rather than bring peace and harmony, the EU will cause insurgency and violence."

What a load of "glass half empty" responses.

Greece has made more headlines with its austerity measures and protests against the degradation of democracy than anyone else. These are the issues brought to the awareness of the Nobel Committee (thanks to CG for the quote singling out Greece from the other sharers.)

Here you go, they've helped contribute to the coffers, yet again:

A prize, worth £750,000, will be presented in Oslo on December 10.
