As accurate as most of the other rubbish you post, there are no problems watching BBC World News in Cyprus on any of the local legal subscription services such as Cablenet.


Onsce again you spout off without understanding the message .... as seems to be the norm with you!

The programme was aired 'live' Monday morning at 0630 and repeated later on the same day and I watched it. I have Cytanet and yes they have BBC World News live but if you want to watch a programme at later date they do not have 'catch-up'. If you try to watch it on YouTube you get a banner that says it is not available outside the UK.

Try to understand the message before making ignorant comments!


You asked if they can watch it yesterday, which would indicate watching it live.


You really are dumb! How can you watch yesterdays live transmission today, unless you have access to some sort of catch up facility or record it. Yesterday is the past ..... my Cytanet has no facility for watching programmes that were transmitted yesterday, so you need one of PaulZKTV set top boxes that has such a catch-up facility. :roll:

I think your post just confirms that it is the 'remainers' that really DO have a problem and that LR's comments were fully justified. Your comments were just your rather biased opinion and of no substance! :roll:

Robin, I have a problem mate!! STG has lost more than 10% since the geriatric and little Englander vote influenced by the Clown and the Moron VOTED TO ....TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK !! :lol: :lol: At least our NHS will be :lol: ...better of to the tune of 50 million pounds per DAY !! :lol: :lol:


Some are calculating that the cost of the huge army of lawyers, accountants, negotiators etc. needed to negotiate individual trade deals with every country in the world will be in the region of 30 billion pounds per year, which by my calculations comes to more than 80 million pounds per day.

Well .... you are obviously. :roll: Another member who opens mouth before turning on brain!!!!!!

You obviously didn't watch the link you posted! I found this link too but this is a only a clip of 2 1/2 minutes from a 30 minute programme! Now try again ...... I have found no link that will allow me to watch or post a link to the whole programme! Maybe you can find one ..... I could not. :roll:

Just to add fuel to the fire. Nigel Farage was caught waiting in a queue to obtain German citizenship :)

Well, Farage doesn't qualify for German citizenship simply because he is married to a German; there is a residential requirement:

German citizenship by marriage
If you are married to a German national, you don't automatically become a German citizen yourself. Certain criteria have to be met, including having been married for two years and legally residing in Germany for three years.


On the other hand, his four children do automatically qualify for German citizenship thanks to having a German mother:

A child is considered German by birth if they are born to at least one German parent, irrespective of whether the child was born in Germany or abroad.


However, Farage can only apply on behalf of his children aged under 16:

Parents can apply for children under 16 years of age


One of his children was born in 2005 and one in 2000, so in theory he could be applying for citizenship on their behalf. I wonder what other business he could potentially have at the German embassy.

Thank you I didn't know that! :) If you want some questions answered regarding Brexit it is worth listening to. He did of course vote to leave but he does give some of his reasons as opposed to just slagging off the 'remain' argument'. :wink:

Steve Keen appears not to have British nationality despite having lived in Britain for some time. How did he get the vote?

Commonwealth migrants from 54 states - including ­Australia, Canada, India, Pakistan and Nigeria -
could join the electoral roll as long are they are residents in the UK.
