Wow! It seems that Tony Abbott is not so dumb after all. Compared to you lot, the guy is a friggin Einstein!



Check this out!



Liberal Government in Australia from 2002 till 2008 - no illegal immigration issue!

Labor Government from 2008 till 2013 - country turns to shit!

Liberal Government from March 2003 - everything back on track! And most of the illegal arrivals were in the first quarter of incompetent nincompoop Labor Administration.

I told you this guy is an Einstein!

Cyprus should intercept these ships in International Waters. That is what OYK is for!

They can build a big huge Detention Centre in Tseri! I bet the human trafficking will cease in 2 months flat!

FFS...!!! The issue isn't the BBC's reporting cos practically any news source you meandering thread-trashing buggers bother to look up is still running with the Ezadeen having left from a Turkish port and the few that do refer to the CY connection are referring to "Cyprus", without the specifics.

Now, leaving aside the massive humanitarian angle and let's remember that there are hundreds of people on the ship, very desperate people trying to flee a war zone, the issue in the CY context, the real questions are what was this ship was doing moored in Occupied Famagusta for some three weeks ...???

... and why weren't those looking after the port aware of what was going on...???

One of the places to look for these answers is in the press of the Occupied Areas, but you'd be wasting your time cos the story is getting minuscule coverage.

The sole report up there goes with the ship having left Turkey.

Anyways, you frigging naughty lot, here's a para from the Irish Journal, from a couple of hours ago...

"... The livestock vessel had been en route from Famagusta in northern Turkish-controlled Cyprus to the southern French port of Sete, but had first stopped at the Syrian port of Tartus, according to a shipping website. ..."

The Beeb probably gets its feeds from News.com, Rueters and some others. If people actually bother, they will see that many outlets actually have the same articles word for word!

Yep, agreed, lazy, modern journalism, loads of verbatim reprints and few bother to do the research, to add something new and original.

Yes it is very much lazy gutter journalism. Not much research involved I'm afraid and everyone shouldn't even be surprised that many Journos are not even aware that Cyprus is illegally occupied. Sad but very true. And that is partly our fault.

I doubt very much that the Beeb or anyone else had an anti Cyprus agenda. Usually these articles are written by journos who don't even know the Capital of Cyprus. Some probably can't even point to Cyprus on a map and will need to look it up.

[Flying Horse]

In my opinion regardless of the beebs lack of political correctness regarding it being moored at the occupied port of Famagusta, this mistake might well be rectified at some point.
Think of it this way. European countries can't cope with the amount of refugees pouring in, in this manner and maybe, just maybe that significant 'occupied' issue might just start rearing it's head and give the concerns that something needs to be done.
Can't be having illegal occupation allowing illegals through into Europe too often. The lids been lifted on that, allowing the floodgates open for forcible investigation.


Silver lining and all that.....

You mean adding something new and original like suggesting that the TRNC is somehow involved in this without and before any actual evidence to support such an allegation ? Is that the kind of journalism you would like to see ?

[Paphitis]

It is actually to our political benefit if the human trafficking problem is attributed to the RoC.

The RoC has official dejure responsibility for all territorial waters surrounding the island and the EEZ.

It would be wrong of the Beeb or anyone else to question this legal authority.

What was the Azadeen doing for some three weeks docked in Occupied Famagusta...???

... and why weren't the alarm bells ringing up there... ???
