Re: Post Brexit, British permanent residents in Cyprus cannot vote, stand in local elections

I read that people are saying that the Cypriot Govt doesn’t want all and sundry voting in the local elections, it’s seems quite easy if you pay village or town taxes you should be allowed to vote locally if you don’t you cannot vote, seems simple, I just don’t feel part of the village community anym...

Re: Post Brexit, British permanent residents in Cyprus cannot vote, stand in local elections

We pay the annual tax for running our village, but now we have no say as to who spends it, we have been here 14 years and have always voted in the municipality elections.

Re: Sterling doing well!

I was a currency broker for 15 years I take an interest in the currency market, its not being pedantic, 40/50 point movement in the currency is significant, especially if you happen to be exchanging sterling for euros, as far as I am concerned that’s the end of it.
