I think that people should stop feeding ferals and that rescue centers may eventually realise th...

These "appeasing cowards" as you put it outaside where put into power by UK citizens at the ballot box,and will be again,and again so I,m afraid we,ll just have to get used to it. An extreme left or right wing government would not let this happen but we wont vote for such,so there we have ...

Re: Financial aid for people forced to abandon homes in Pissouri -Interior Ministry

That's right,in the UK there is the NHBC which in itself gaurantees any major faults in the property.We bought a new house in the UK and after nine years six months noticed cracks in the brickwork around the windows.Sure enough they sent some one round who fixed the problem.

Re: Tourism industry issues SOS, needs more workers

With rents continuing to rise and the hotels paying such low wages it just does not add up to people coming to the island and working.
