May a CHP-HDP coalition emerge.

With things being so close, a lot will depend on who global capital trusts most to look after their investments in Turkey. If the Economist is withdrawing its support from Erdoğan, though, that does look a bit ominous.

Turkish police have stormed the offices of an opposition media group days before the country’s pivotal election, in a crackdown on companies linked to a US-based cleric and critic of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.

The authorities seized 22 companies owned by Koza Ipek on Tuesday in an investigation of alleged financial irregularities, including whether it funded Gülen. The company denies wrongdoing.

Erdoğan has led a crackdown against once influential followers of Gülen

Legal action against other opposition newspapers, including the nationalist Sözcü, was planned for after the vote, said Aydin Ünal, a legislator in the ruling AK party.

“After 1 November, we will hold them accountable. Sözcü newspaper insults us every day,” Ünal, a former Erdoğan adviser, told A Haber channel. “There is a lot of pressure on Turkey. If we say something, the world accuses us of interfering with the press, so we’re not in a comfortable position now, but after 1 November we will settle up with all of them.”

A prosecutor is seeking a prison sentence of up to 34 years for Gülen on allegations that he ran a “parallel” structure within state institutions that sought to topple Erdoğan, who has led Turkey, first as prime minister, then president, since 2003.

A number of prominent journalists who worked at Gülen-affiliated newspapers and TV stations are in pre-trial detention on similar charges.

It's just about the war between the so-called secular elite and the so-called non-secular elite... shortly to say, an interest conflict between the Turkish elites... it's nothing else...

This is the fight between the Gulenists and the Erdoganists, a schism within the Islamist wing that wanted to overthrow the secular republic.

Agreed, and I think they would have succeeded if they had stuck together, but they couldn't agree on sharing out the spoils and now they are at one another's throats. Anyway, let's see what happens after Sunday's elections. I am hoping for a very different Turkey and there is a chance it could come.

I am hoping for a coup and a mass implosion of that criminal terrorist state. Maybe the T cock suckers in Europe and the US will finally see what is really going on.

Well looks like Mad dog Erdo has won the election with an out right majority. The start of Turkeys new dictatorship and I hope the EU and especially the UK/US suffer for it.

They created this beast called Turkey now it is unstoppable. The Turkish population deserve all they got coming, all I am waiting for now it the Kurdish up rising.

Cyprus has even less chance of any possible solution now.

It's already being described as a "surprising" victory. Unfortunate for the Turkish people if that is the case and Erdogan has defrauded his way back to dictate over them. Sad if the Turkish people are that brainwashed that they did vote him back in!

Either way, let's hope he continues to destroy Turkey if that is the only way Cyprus will ever have freedom and peace again!
