If you can watch BBC World News with Steve Keen on Hardtalk yesterday (not possible in Cyprus unless you use a UK catch up system) being interviewed by Stephen Zackur, he can point out where your thinking is all wrong. :roll:


The ONLY country you CANT watch BBC WORLD NEWS is the UK.
BBC Worldwide is a private limited company ,its not the British Broadcasting corp.

waiting now for the fact that the MD at cyprus telecom said you can watch anytihng you like coz

Commonwealth migrants from 54 states - including ­Australia, Canada, India, Pakistan and Nigeria -
could join the electoral roll as long are they are residents in the UK.


total joke ...no one from france but someone from the middle of the pacific ocean ...


Interesting. Thanks. I know that Cypriots living in the UK can vote in national elections there, but the reverse does not apply.

Why do you never post the good news .... and there seems to be plenty of it?

For instance, at the moment the pound is continuing its current upward trend and is above 1.16 and better news to come! :roll:

Robin, nothing would please me more than for Stg to make a recovery and very soon. Im a born optimist but not a dreamer and following the disastrous referendum results I just can not see Stg recovering any time soon if at all. I do sincerely hope that it does since most of my transactions are in Euros.

I'm on the opposite side of the coin from you mate, in that I live in the eurozone here in Cyprus and 80% of my turnover this year has been in GDP and for sales to the UK. I am going to lose out thanks both to weaker Sterling and also the economic slowdown in my main market. And some people here seem to think we are rubbing our hands in joy and wishing for bad news just to prove us right! Nothing could be further from the truth. From the persepective of my own business, I would be delighted to see a strong UK economy and a strong GDP.
