Re: BHC at Paphos airport this Wednesday
Harry where do you get your information from?
Why should commercial flights to Cyprus cease in the event of a middle eastern war? Which hopefully no one wants. Commercial flights to Cyprus haven’t stopped during the Syrian or the Iraqi wars. Cyprus isn’t part of the middle east.
HIC
I was only relaying the current British Govt’s line, since before Boris was elected recently., He was putting forward the idea that he could renegotiate the previously negotiated by May EU Brexit deal. Of course many people realised this was very unlikely, but many politicians and others in the UK seemed to swallow it. Now huge amounts of money are being thrown at trying to prepare the country as well as possible for an unplanned Brexit in less than 3 months.
God help us all!

Re: BHC at Paphos airport this Wednesday
A deal accepted by the EU parliament. But a deal rejected by the UK parliament ....3 times. Therefore there was no deal. It takes two to tango.Happy in Cyprus wrote: ↑Wed Aug 07, 2019 3:05 am
The EU is quite happy to honour the deal agreed with previous Prime Minister, May.
Re: BHC at Paphos airport this Wednesday
Why would everyone leave, most who could would just dig a little deeper into their pockets. You also forget that the Russians and Chinese plus citizens of other countries are pouring into Cyprus making up for the falling numbers of British immigrants.Harry123 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 07, 2019 5:09 pmOnly if the reciprocal health arrangements between UK and Cyprus are not renewed.
If they are not watch everyone leave! It will be Cyprus then who feels uncomfortable.
The Cypriot Authorities know where their bread is buttered - so I am not in the least worried by this BHC scaremongering.
Harry.
The Cypriots aren't as dependent on the British these days as many like to think.

It really does not matter what anyone 'Rekons'.. No one will know until it is sorted and the officials let us know of any changes..

Trev
Totally agree, no one knows what's going to happen but suggestions by some that it's all sorted is misleading.

If your suggesting I'm spreading malicious rumours then I've pasted a definition of what scaremongering actually means.
I'm telling people how it really is and not how I wish it or want it to be.
Fact: presently there is no signed post Brexit agreement between Cyprus and the UK. There maybe a "temporary" extension until an agreement is signed so we will have to wait and see.The link from the BBC confirms what I wrote.
Fact: We are in unchartered territory and to blindly believe everything will be as it was prior to Cyprus joining the EU is naive in the extreme, that's not scaremongering, it's common sense.

Hi HIC, As you may realise I am in the UK at present. The facts that emerge are that the UK Govt and also the media are not delivering the sort of accurate information to the public here about the facts and all the implications of an unplanned Brexit until the last few days. Just a drip feed, and the media are also investigating! In fact from before the referendum there was no proper explanation given to the British public of the full implications of leaving the EU. Although there are some people on this board who take every opportunity to knock the BHC in Cyprus, actually they are doing a splendid job in trying to keep British expats and residents up to date with as much info as possible at a very difficult time.
People shouldn’t forget that the BHC takes its information from the British Govt and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. In fact while I have been in the UK! conversations with many friends here show how much more we know about whats happening from the BHC in Cyprus than most people do in the UK!
Since Boris took over chaos seems to reign, Boris makes remarks to the press and the media and so far his promises to Parliament and the public about renegotiating Brexit agreement with the EU are just hot air! Since both the British Parliament and presumably the EU are on holiday in August, nothing can be done until early next month.
An unplanned Brexit on 31 Oct seems to be on the cards!
