UK government announces that "more needs to be done to encourage long term unemployed to get jobs".

How about cutting benefits ?.

Government also announces that £74 million is to be allocated to build 'safe rooms' in the homes of battered wives !.

Illegal Somalian immigrant convicted of rape awarded £50,000 compensation for being detained whilst awaiting deportation.

No wonder 5,000 people a week are leaving UK. Hopefully, one day I can make that 5,001 !.

Also they have changed the law here now...a traffic accident involving a fatality is now classed as a scene of crime so the area is cordoned off and forensic etc meticulously sift through it for hours - hence the chaos. :

For a very, very long time, the Forensic labs in England were part of the Government. It was a civil servant job. For example, the Forensic Lab in London, that I worked for, back in the 70's, was a branch of New Scotland Yard, but in the last 10 years or so, it was privatized. I believe the same all over the UK. So now, each Forensic Lab had to finance and budget themselves, and bill directly, which ever agency needed and used them. So needless to say, the longer they are at the scene of an accident or a crime, it is easier to balance their budgets. !!!

Last month my brothers house was broken into.... again. That makes it about the 5th or 6th times over the last 25 years or so. When he called the police to report the break in, the police arrived to make a report at record time....it took them 5 DAYS to get there.

Advice to all.

It is very advisable to build a safe into the ground, and cover it with laundry bag, or rubbish bin or anything that you can think of, that looks normal in a house. Keep all your important papers / Documents, Passports, Jewelry, and cash in it. Even if the house burns down, you will not lose your precious items. But it has to remain a "Family Secret" that you have one in the house.

What kind of statement was that...........
Don't you just love winding people up !!!! with your imature childish comments..........get a life mate,wake up and smell the coffee,as little boys shoud be seen but not heard !!!!

Highlander, dont be a tossah, it was 5 PROSTITUTES murdered not 5 ordinary girls...

Go and count your millions you retard

[G.Man]

GMan have you ever thought of engaging brain before speaking. You Prat!!

Explain yourself? Has it recently come out that the girls murdered were not infact prostitutes?

Are there no murders in cyprus? last time I checked there had been a few...

So the fact is relevant, and in case you are still in any doubt look for the wink...

Whichever way you want to paint it those girls were unfortunate enough to end up as prostitutes because they became dependant on drugs. Still lovely girls who had lost their way and when murderers get used to the fact they can get away with the easy prey can start on normal girls. One of them was a innocent 19 year old who the police believe may have been a victim who was simply trying to get home. I for one did this as a 19 year old in Liverpool many times but was never unlucky enough to meet a murderer!

Prostitutes are not so different. Don't be so unsympathetic!

If anyone tells me that moving to Cyprus is going to create just as many problems then I won't believe them!!

(ok - feel better now )

Well, lets start with govt office issues, registering an imported car for example... then we can move on swiftly to the standards of driving... plenty of traffic jams in the major towns due to people not obeying simple instructions from traffic lights or box junctions.. then lets look at utility bills, £465 for 2 months electricity in summer... eventually reduced slightly, but not enough to make it reasonable... then there is the local workmen, that add 30% to the price of anything if you are not a cypriot.. the build quality of the houses... 2 years to get a set of deeds, only to find out the developer had mortgaged the property 6 weeks before he went bust, and 18 months after he sold the property to you... almost getting run over by people who make illegal turns in the town centres without looking to see if anyone was there... hitting a kerb because somone on a scooter was travelling the wrong way down a one way street...

Hey its lovely here, but lets not pretend its without problems.... it just has good weather and problems...

Nikki, I wasn't unsympathetic, but we cannot pretend that the girls murdered were not prostitutes and say that all girls are at risk from this killer...

My point was a cheeky light hearted one, but some people dont have a sense of humour it seems, whatever their claims of bedroom prowess are...

There is a growing drug issue in cyprus, which they (police/govt) are dealing with by treating all drugs as serious as one another... the end result is, that the kids think if I am gonna get caught with canabis, I may as well get caught with cocaine...

However, in reality, you are more likely to be killed/injured by a drunk driver than by a drug crazed killer, and the prostitutes here arent enticed into the work by drugs... (see cabaret thread)...

I wish you all the best with your move, I love it here, and am now building up a good network of cypriot friends...

So it makes a difference to you if these girls were prostitutes??

Does it not enter your simple minded head that these girls were somebodies daughters??

I really think that if you think making a joke out of this situation ( which you seem to think can be excused by a wink) is funny then you are a very sad individual and eally need to grow up.

RichardB I thought people posting here would have some degree of intelligence and realise the purpose of the wink, sadly I underated some, but now I have no need to make that mistake again...

So to explain for the hard of understanding...

No it makes no difference to me the girls were prostitutes, but to deny that is exactly what they were, for whatever reasons or motivation, is WHY they were killed... to tell all women they are at risk because there is some psycho killing young girls, is completely different to telling people that PROSTITUTES are at risk from a psycho killer...

I did not make any light of the situation, and merely referred to nikki's comment about being worried about sending her girls to school in ipswich, as in reality, they are at no more risk in ipswich than they are in any other town UNLESS they are prostitutes, in which case they could be designated as a murderee...

So if some are too stupid to understand humour, and want to perpetuate a similar argument to that which is going down in the uk media, rather than actually think for themselves, then there you have it in plain english..

I am terribly sorry mothers have to find out their daughters were prostitutes, but maybe had they brought them up better they would have had a better education, better jobs, not had multiple sprogs by 20 and not turned to drugs to try and improve their pitiful existences...

Yes i think it is entirely relevant these people were prostitutes, why should ordinary girls with proper jobs, walk around the streets of Ipswich in terror they might be killed... its enitirely proper to let these girls know they are not at risk unless they are prostitutes..

Sadly some are subscribing to the thing that makes the US/UK truely bad, the purpose of this thread, political correctness.. lets just call these prostitutes young girls, rather than what they are... a particular type of young girl... A prostitute!

Like my poor physically challenged father in law says, "I am not physically challenged, I am a f**king cripple"...
