Very unreliable NATO members the Greeks aren't they. Spunk up everyone else's money then snake off to the Russian's when it's time to pay up

Hi Mal as I said I'm done (for now anyway) but just to say to your last sentence and maybe keep my 2 previous posts in the back of your mind?

I'm now off to complain about my own street name as it's associated with the Battle of Hastings

Bob, what makes you so sure that your ‘Mr Average' is going to get fed up with the whole BLM thing on the strength of non-stories like the road in Ealing?

You keep saying that there are only a few contributors to these threads, which is true, but to say the silent majority see things from your point of view is a bit of an assumption I'd say. While Joe Average might be looking for reasons to dismiss BLM and thinking it's time they shut up, who's to say Norman Normal isn't thinking ‘yeah, fair enough, why not change things a bit'?

I've a full repertoire
Mind you they've a history of being deadly snakes. Luckily the laughing stock British were around in 74 to save 10's of thousands from massacre and reimpose democracy. Even after the murderous terrorist campaign of EOKA and General Grivas. Not a relative are you or still holding a torch for EOKA and Makarios

I won't be fighting over her she looks a bit like a bloke and ruined Hallelujah.

Jon stop asking questions I'm trying to be done!
Let's just say I use specially selected people including black people as barometers, people who believe in BLM the rest I ignore.

Funny how you don't quite understand history in its entirety and just chose to make sweeping statements that are not accurate. It doesn't take much to read all about it and educate yourself. Mainly on the basis that what your referring to is Cyprus... which has Turkish and Greek populations on it.

The greek junta collapsed after Turkish invasion of Cyprus. The treaty of peace was formed between Cyprus, Greece, Turkey and Britain (as Cyprus is a former Empire State of Britain - it was the EOKA which actually got it independence from Britain with backing from the population) Makarios was the first president of independent Cyprus. Britain remains as a guarantor of independent Cyprus, hence their involvement. Don't forget that the British empire refused to let Cyprus have a democracy up until then and Palmer (the governed at the time) did everything he could to suppress a local interest in politics.

So no - Britain didn't give democracy to Cyprus or Greece. In fact they refused to let Cyprus have it until 1959 when the Zurich agreement was signed to declare its independence.

Populations crossed to their respective sides of Cyprus by agreement between the Greeks and Turkish with no violence required. They did a population swap as it's known to allow safe passage. UN and British SBA (sovereign based area) forces oversaw it.

Learn your history before expressing wildly inaccurate opinions as facts

Honestly you get so triggered it's hilarious Can the mods please rename him Karen

I think that's Alexandra Burke you're thinking of tinhead. I'll put it down to your old age rather than going all Samuel L Jackson on you....
