Of course migration from the island is not restricted to just the TCs, you will find same thing with GCs too, to this day I might add.
Not that I would expect you to be up to date with the current news.
Now, that reminds me I must order Karl Marx's book to see what dude had to say for himself. After all not that much has changed since his time. Poor workers are even poorer now.
Interesting comparison to make about Swineland is the house prices. In my day you could buy a house with 3 times your annual salary in London. Now you would not be able to buy a house with 10 times your salary.
But never mind, your days ov living in poverty is over, you is doin alwhit right. Fuck the poor now.
Good evening.
Forgive me for mixing posts up a bit here.
You're wonderful. Classic. Like Dick Emery (I'm sure you will remember). "Ohh............... you are awful but............... I like you."
I posted a recent CM article which outlines reasons for the current quite large scale exodus of young Turkish Cypriots, due to the virtual collapse of the Turkish economy. You talk about events of almost 50 years ago and accuse me of ..................................wait for it..................not keeping up with current events.
You accuse me of being a "latent fascist" - when you talk regularly and eagerly about executing "Swineland" politicians and businessmen.)
You and I have different perspectives of poverty. Mine are based upon experience. Yours theoretical. You really need to get out more - in a global context.
I once - regretfully - submitted angrily to your incessant, wrist-slashingly depressive posts and told you to "fuck off!". However, my repeated urging that as you approach retirement you should consider going home isn't the same.
It's a fact that you started and have run a thread which slags off most aspects of the UK for 42 pages. About 400 - 500 posts, Virtually all yours. You clearly are not at all happy with the place. My earnest advice is that you should retire a year early and go home. You will be much happier.
When you talk about "I love my country" I yet again have to point out that in fact it isn't. You are a Turkish Cypriot. Be happy - go home.
Despite that, I would love to know which aspects of "my country" you "love" because I'm fucked if I can find absolutely anywhere in 42 pages you've had anything good to say about the place.
You certainly are fucked. If I was going to say nice things, would I call it La La Land.
Why don't you start up a thread and tell us all the good things.
There is only one good thing left in this country at that's our NHS and the Swine are fucking that too. They have been in power for 12 years and now left us 100,000 NHS staff short. Tell me that's a good thing.
