I personaly dislike such polls and find them racist as a concept.
You are categorizing people according to race/nationality which is the same as categorizing them according to their skin colour, gender or hair distribution

Nothing wrong with that , people have a race that they derived from and people classify other people by the race that they belong to or are attached to. A Scotsman , Englishman , Welshman , Cypriot , Turkish Black or Asian , Arab or Jew , what is wrong with that , a perfectly natural human tendency to put people into the categories they see them as belonging to .

People should be judged as individuals anot according to what race they come from...

You can catgorise them, but not judge them by race...

Totally agree!!

I think you may be right Carleen. Some people will just not listen to reason and make comments without fully thinking them through. Some people are really defensive too, even with the most innocent of comments.

It really is not worth rising to it.

I think me and you think the right things its best not to rise to such people we will end up the good ones they will continue to show what sort of person they really are. like you i came on here to listen about whats being spoken about then a poll comes up about are english two faced in cyprus???? well i had alot to say as i am english indeed so are you, if we cannot judge them they cannot judge us .

[carleen]

its not one rule for one and one rule for another

[joderv1]

Exactly. I want to be judged for the person I am not where I come from.

We came to Cyprus for a better life and it is just not the place for us.

We will remain the open minded decent people, as most are on this forum. To attack English people is saying it is ok to attack the Cypriots and that in not right either.

I feel really sorry for some people after reading some of the posts. The tables will turn as they say. They cannot get an enjoyment from attacking people surely.

pole was for you and its clearly stated that its not for all english. because you stay in south you are judging everything one sided without going and searching for the other side or listening the other side. You trying to support GCs even arguing that Turkish is not the language of Cyprus. You telling many sad people you see around but you cant see the real situation. Only you trying to judge everything how your husband orders you. If its me i will do my search at my own by listening the 2 sides if you are so interested with the Cyprus problem

No one attacked English people,she made a stupid racist remark and got retaliated in return...that's all.

read back gav i said many times i feel as sorry for the other side as well and i know its not just one sided as ive said again before, and my husband doesnt order me to believe anything just because im married to a gc doesnt mean i have his mind i have my own mind and i think what i want to think. i have done my reseach found out what people have to say and yes as an outsider i am interested in this problem as my two children will grow up in this country, i dont want them to be doing what were all doing argueing about who is right and who is wrong.

Yes Carleen. Turkish is A language of Cyprus, but you don't see any English or Armenian writing on the money do you?
