| This doesn't surprise me at all, the same thing happened in Peyia village a few years ago, it is no safer buying South, I watched a Place in the Sun a couple of years ago with that delightful airhead Amanda Lamb, she advised against buying in the North and said stick to the SAFE SOUTH, I rang the programme to speak with her, of course I didn't get that 'privilege' lol. It is about time the truth was told about the whole of Cyprus. The place is a disgrace. |

| Yes but what good is owning a home legally or not if you are unable to use because it could fall down any minute. |

| Nicola totaly agree with you the whole place is a disgrace, a breeding ground for corruption and illegal behaviour, what upsets me most is our fellow Brits which lead the way in ripping us all off SHAME on them, still they don't care, Cooper i know where your coming from, we watched our whole complex been built the munchkins out of the wizard of Oz could have done a better job, we even had work men knocking on our door asking for the most basic of tools ie screwdriver, hammer etc The building of our communuaal pool is a disgrace just waiting for it to collapse x |

| bazzagirl, it is a cypriot thing, the gc's and tc's may be poles apart in some ways but they are all cypriots and have the rip off mentality which originates from the greek motherland, the greeks are they will say anything to achieve their goals. Just look at how they got into Europe. Part of post edited , for uncalled for racist comment . ..... Simbas |

| Nicola you cannot stereotype a whole people because of the actions of a few politicians. Lets not forget the last UK government told us that they were not involved in decisions abt Magrahi and Libya. Do these lies make all Brits liars and murderers. No of course not! Use your brain! You replied to my post, I asked you a perfectly civil question. Your response is just childish. |

| Nicola, Have some manners . You obviously have an attitude problem. You are a new member of this forum and have in your posts to date shown by your juvenile contributions that you have a lot to learn. If Simbas said your comments are racist ( not for the first time ) that is good enough for me. I have also been chastised by Simbas for some of my posts but I have to accept her judgment just like you should ! Grow Up ! |

| EamonnMc, I could not care a jot what you think of me, you are clearly about as well read as Simbas when it comes to Racism, I have stated something that is on every media outlet throughout the world, there was a whole programme by Jeff Randall on Sky News about the fraudulent statements made by Greece in order to gain entry into the EU. It is you that has a lot to learn, now please afford me the luxury of ignoring my posts. Thank you. |

| Nicola - whoever you are and whereever you are - I like you. I often feel that people do not say exactly what they think because they are afraid of being called 'racist' or 'not politically correct' - absolute madness. In the 1940 early 50s my father used to take me to speakers corner at Marble Arch and some of those 'discussions' were really over the top but taken as 'you have the right to say it - providing you can back it up'. |

| rocking thanks for that. I care not one iota what people with an IQ lower than their height in metres call me, I am not racist at all, when I continually read threads that spread rumour and malice without the means to back up, some threatening and definately racist with no censure from the so called moderators on here, except one that Simbas removed as the neanderthal poster threatened me when his country allows the poisoning of dogs by a high ranking police officer, the incarceration of an old age pensioner for going about his daily business and being the participant of an unfortunate accident through no fault of his own. Then you have the poor unfortunate pensioners who have lost their life savings by investing in property that is often not finished or mortgaged to the hilt and then reclaimed by corrupt banks charging 2500%. Customs charging whatever rate they pick out of the air that day on cars and imports into the country etc etc etc, where do I stop. cont. |

| The country is corrupt to its core, North and South, the South should be kicked out of Europe and the North should never be allowed in. As far as I'm an concerned not only should they not get into the EU they should not even get into the human race, they are not fit be to be called humans, they treat expats like cash machines and disregard their human rights. Yet some the expats on here wearing their rose coloured glasses call me a s..g, a racist, they tell me to f..k off etc. They are too stupid to bother with but sometimes I bite. |

| Nicola I don't really care if you're a racist or not, I don't care what you think of Cyprus, North or South, whatever, that is your choice, BUT, if you have such a low opinion of the ex pats who live here, the forum as a whole, the moderators who have to put up with crap and insults from people like you and generally the whole deal on 44, can I ask you why you have bothered to post. You claim to live in Portugal, so why in eight days have you bothered to post almost 100 times on this forum, is everything so wonderful over there that you have to find a crusade to fill your time with. Can you not just leave us sad deluded old buffers alone to spend our last few years wearing our rose coloured specs and enjoying the cheap incontinence pads, it's not a lot to ask is it. |

| The problem is Nicola is unable to back anything up with discussion or example. She just makes offensive hate statements abt others. I think the best solution is to ignore her and others like her. People seem to confuse discussion with being offensive. A reminder though although this forum is based on Northern Cyprus it is partly moderated in the UK and many contributors are based in the UK or within the EU. It is an offence to disseminate racism and to attack others because of there race http://www.adviceguide.org.uk/wales/your_rights/discrimination/racially_and_religiously_motivated_attacks.htm you can report internet racism to Internet Watch Foundation at: http://www.iwf.org.uk |

| Rocking, I don't know who is racist, but, things that were allowed in the 40s and 50s would not be allowed nowadays and quite rightly : Example of such gems,Till death do us part, Love thy neighbour,On the buses, words like N*ggers, Wogs,spades,coons,nig nogs, sambos, I for one am glad that we have evolved a bit more than those sad old days when your generation lapped up "The Black and White Minstrels" with 20million viewers every week.

| Msg. 68. I couldn't agree more with you, however, everything is relative e.g we wouldn't send a child up a chimney to clean it would we, but it was done because no-one thought it wrong. Likewise having a slave was not considered wrong until the likes of Wilberforce "saw the light". What is considered absolutely abhorrent now wasn't then. I freely admit that I used to sit with my Mother on a Saturday evening to watch the Black and White Ministrel Show and neither she nor I or the other 20million considered we were doing anything wrong. My absolute favourite doll was a "gollywog" which comforted me through some very, very hard times as a child and quite a few operations. I adored that doll and was totally devasted when it finally fell to pieces after having been darned dozens of times. I make no apolgies for that. |

| Visitor everything I have said is backed up and documented, open for anyone with a brain (clearly not you) to read. I have used most threads on here as that very back up. The place is corrupt, ask around. I am not prepared to enter into further discussion with someone who is clearly not intelligent enough to see through the fog. |

| As someone who has taught Equal Opps, Diversity, Racist Laws, Predjudice, Discrimination within all their glories for over 20 years I think there are a lot of people around who make up their own version of the laws. I love the current example in the UK - the Travellers - who are not Travelling but living static, who have breached planning laws designed for everyone (whatever race, creed, sexual orientation or ethnic group they are) are crying Ethnic Cleansing!!!! they are Irish, so that means they can jump on the bandwagon of ethnicity. The state they are travellers but their homes have never moved for 10 years. Lesson for today - if you spout a law, make sure you know Which one it is and how it works!!!!! |

| A reminder though although this forum is based on Northern Cyprus it is partly moderated in the UK and many contributors are based in the UK or within the EU. It is an offence to disseminate racism and to attack others because of there race. Might I add that Diversity also covers sexual discrimination such as making statements about someone because they are female/male. Using derogatory statements about someone because of what the are or what they say comes within this law. Homosexuals, female/male etc etc etc On a recent visit to the UK I visited the people who are now living in my old house (which I no longer own) they are Indian and have a daughter 4 years old. As she is the only coloured person in the village she was very concern - she need not have worried she has been welcomed (as I knew she would be). We discussed racism and I pointed out a lot of things which have been changed as a result of this i.e. the Gollywog. I explained the origins of the name which is detrime |

| I explained to her that we all loved our Gollywogs. Another good example is Noddy. The only business man on that she was Mr Golly who owned the Garage and Noddy and Big Ears always used his Garage to get their cars repaired. The took Mr Golly out of the programm - another positve coloured role who everyone loved. They still keep calling the other 'white' guy 'Big Ears' A few days later I was in Charity shop and I saw a Gollywog. I bought it for Isabelle (the 4 year old indian girl) and she loves it. She takes it everywhere with her and sleeps with it. Too many positives relating to race have been taken out of our world along with the negatives. |

| Visitor, I take it by remarks to me that you find the below acceptable. An old aged pensioner conned into pleading guilty under the threat of a much longer incarceration if he pleaded not guilty. A high ranking police officer poisoning dogs along with many people who poison innocent dogs. Pensioners being conned out of their life savings with no redress. Police brutality to get evidence, etc etc. Corruption is corruption, race doesn't enter into it. I think that says more about you than me. I do hope for your sake that you never fall foul of any of the above. |

| Hiddy I just find your examples frightening - 'Gollywogs' and 'coloured children'. The agencies I listed are UK government bodies. They describe in detail offences and actions against Race harassment and victimisation. They are government websites. If anyone feels that comments are racist they can contact them for advise and if need be this body will prosecute. There are several recent cases in the UK press of internet prosecutions for racism. Nicola you have made comments such as 'they should not even get into the human race, they are not fit be to be called humans' I can accept if you were criticising the politicians or corrupt individuals but your comments as with those that have been deleted by Simbas - you have applied to all Cypriots. |

| Visitor, you really are a dimwit, I was referring to the people I have mentioned, police, judiciary, builders etc etc, too many to mention individually, so if the cap fits wear it. I have some very good cypriot friends both greek and turkish alike who agree with me. Clearly you do not read the problems that people post on here or because you haven't suffered, by luck more than judgement, then you are of the I'm alright jack brigade who couldn't give a damn about the less fortunate. Again I say 'it says more about you than me' Goodnight. |

| Msg 82, Nasty Nicola strikes again. You are completely lacking in "class " with your gutter logic and foul manners ! I seriously doubt that you have many Greek and Turkish Cypriot friends . just as i doubt you have many friends at all. You just seem to spend your days in front of a computer spewing out your vitriol and trying to justify your prejudices ! How sad you really are ! |

| If as you say nicola you have MANY Cypriot firends! I would be surprised if they read the Trash coming out of your mouth concerning their country and Cypriots as a race, that you would have them as friends anymore! I have read some rubbish on this site over the years, but your posts take 1st place. |

I used to have a wonderful collection of Gollywogs from the Marmelade jars........ aw I wish I could have brought them to Cyprus with me. Never mind, I shall just cuddle my lovely golly!!!!1 |

| While ANY foreigner is resident on renewable 1-2 years 'Visitor' status, it is impossible for them to 'own their homes legally' in TRNC - and YOU know it. What are you trying to do - mock all expats? |

| EamonCC I see Nicola has stopped ,Good for you, Job done ,you can move on to the next person you diagree with. She told you to ignore her posts but instead you chose to act the school bully . People come onto this forum to see all sorts of views and I resent the fact that you have chased someone off a topic that I might have wanted to hear more from. Simba, As for her posts about the Greeks being moderated off. it was obvious she was not talking about invidual Greeks but the establishment ,and I think you knew that . II you wanted to get at Nicola ,using her statements which as she says ,are no more that most of the media have already said ,was a petty way of doing it. |

| Msg 96, I have never tried to stop anyone contributing to this forum, in fact in other posts I have supported those who fall foul of others including "mods". I engaged in robust discussions and arguments with Nicola and if it got out of hand it was not my doing ! it is also strange, that if you were so exercised by this topic that you only chose to engage after nearly 100 posts ! I also find it strange that you don't mention that Simbas deleted her posts because of their racist content ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, not just one ! Nicola got out of the kitchen because she could not stand the heat, She chose to disengage , I didn't force her ! Let her fight her own battles and justify her opinions without resorting to cheap racist epithets ! |

| Nicola msg 64 i am surprised you still have any Cypriot friend if your opinion of them is so low. Yes there is corruption, police brutality, animal cruelty and everything else you have mentioned but i think the same goes for any country in the world. This is not an ideal world and we cant have everything we want but you choose your own life path and if you are not happy then change it. You may have some valid points but when you start making statements like "As far as I'm an concerned not only should they not get into the EU they should not even get into the human race, they are not fit be to be called humans, they treat expats like cash machines and disregard their human rights. " then that is just insulting. There are good and bad in every race in every country and when you realise that then maybe people would listen to your views. |

| Oh dear, here we go again, there is justice in the TRNC, if you are a Bank, a Builder or landowner in other words a con artist. If you are a victim of any of the above, God help you, nothing for you. Why are the family of Yuksel Yilmaz (landowner) resident on K5 not worried, answer: nothing to worry about, out of the 13 houses on the site, the two Turkish families related to the landowner Yuksel Yilmaz will keep their ill gotten gains at the expense of the other home owners who actually paid cash money for theirs. Now there is justice in action for you. Given the land as Turkish settlers by the then regime, never cost them anything EVER. Here is the real joke, they now let the hovels they used to live in on the rest of the land given to them. Wonder if they declare the rent for tax purposes. Oh and before anyone says, how do you know? Simple, when these people pretended to be my friends, they told me. |
