I wouldn't disagree that the present set of clowns are really making a dog's breakfast of Brexit.

What a sorry state of affairs..and it certainly does not relect my experiences in this country...but rather the reflections of a rather bitter person... Just because you have not experienced it does not mean it doesn't happen, there are a lot of people out there who go out of their way to alienate ...

As I see it the MEU1 is permission to reside in Cyprus. MEU3 gives the right to reside in Cyprus.

Vicky, it has made the local news and in newspapers, also on some forums. I guess you cannot read everything, be warned they appear to be well organised. Don't understand why people have not heard of this type of crime at Lidl's it has been going on for some time, usually with more than one perpetr...

Only debts such as unpaid IPT will prevent the issue of Title Deeds. Unpaid maintenance fees will not. However, if a legal committee places a prohibition on a property at the Land Registry then before the property can be transferred such prohibitions must be cleared. Having said this, it is not an e...

Now that the Renault garage on the Polis Road has closed down, where can I go to get my Outlander serviced? Preferably somewhere that can reset the on-board computer to bring up date/mileage of next service.

Larnaca does not have the "cattle pen system". Larnaca is a far better terminal than Paphos. I suppose it is because the majority of scheduled flights of the large air carriers use that airport. There are direct bridges from the terminal to the aircraft and, failing the use of those bridg...

Do you have to have a licence for an air rifle?

On many instances you can substitute 'Brexit' with 'Bremaining' and it still holds good. e.g Bremaining is like when you go into a shop and take something to the till and it ends up being more expensive than you thought but you’re too awkward to say anything so you just end up paying over the odds f...

from Wikipedia: " The breeze created by a ceiling fan speeds the evaporation of perspiration on human skin, which makes the body's natural cooling mechanism much more efficient. Since the fan works directly on the body, rather than by changing the temperature of the air, during the summer it i...

Fans are cr*p....all they do is blow the hot air around...if the air is hot.....they don't cool anything...just circulate the air...! If it's hot it's hot...Aircon! 😉 And fans...perfect! 😉 So why do they put fans in cars in front of radiators if they have no effect. Perhaps you should tell all the ...

I still think what is happening is treating the symptom and not the cause. We should be using less packaging or banning the production of non-biodegradable plastics.

Right, so everyone now uses the recyclable bags when shopping. Now before the levy, we used the plastic bags as liners for our small rubbish bins in the kitchen and bathroom. As we no longer have said plastic bags we have to buy rolls of these plastic bags, which are still readily available in super...

Sometimes large organisations with large portfolios of properties do not insure these properties as the total premiums required would add up to the reconstruction costs of a new building so they gamble on there not being more than a complete demolition of any one building in a single year.

Why? Actually.. our developer, Leptos, is doing an extremely good job of maintaining the infrastructure of the complex? They know the build, they know the layout, they know exactly who owns the properties and who owes what in regard to complex fees....and at the moment ..they own that debt...The po...

I’ve just applied to Pafilia to be their life guard and test the water for them....I’ve offered my services for any places where there are two or three complexes side by side so it should be a nice little earner 😉 . Seriously though, if everyone has their title deeds then get rid of the developer a...

Dominic,

Wishy-washy also describes my understanding of the accusations. Perhaps jimgward's posting from the Independent reinforces this position.

If you care, perhaps you should do some research of your own? I thought this was a forum where such matters could be aired for everyone's benefit, information-wise, apparently not. If someone has information where I could research then I would gladly follow it up, but all I am getting so far is gen...

So, nothing definite so far.

There have been many accusations bandied about that the Labour Party is a hot-bed of antisemitism. However I have never seen those accusations coupled with actual examples of antisemitism but only the generalisation. I am not saying that antisemitism in the Labour Party doesn't exist, nor that it do...
