Oh dear that doesn't sound too good Shell
especially the writing off big loans, sounds a bit corrupt,
You would think if they were going to make exceptions to the arrangements it would be for institutions like schools, who is going to teach the kids if either private or public schools fail and go into receivership
It's so wrong if chosen individuals have had their loans written off. How on earth will the Country get back on its feet ?
The Cypriot politicians have got a lot to answer for they seem to have let everyone down. I don't think the EU/Merkel have much faith in them implementing things properly and not coming back to the ECB for yet more money. Its just the pigheadedness of them not wanting the Euro to fail that is keeping things going.
Have you got a house to come back to here Shell if you do decide to come back?
Not that we are exactly in a great shape ourselves financially, but at least we blame our own politicians and past and don't blame, the Turks, the Greeks, the Germans, the EU etc The Cypriot government need to man up and get on with it, sort out a decent tax system for a start.
Maybe what you are experiencing is the initial aftermath and things will normalise over the coming months, at least you have a job there, it's not that easy to get a job here at the moment.
Tbh most who have a job here are clinging on to them like grim death, I haven't had a pay rise for three years and I know many others in the same boat. Everyone goes on about how easy it is in the UK but a lot of that is 'daily mail speak' the reality is Job Seekers Allowance is £53 (?) a week, which with UK prices now would be lucky to buy a weeks food shopping.
Don't make any rash decisions, the UK isn't going anywhere so you can take your time apparently there are plenty arriving from Bulgaria and Romania at the moment so I am sure there will be room for two more.
Was going to say Happy Easter, but not sure if folk over there are feeling it, maybe Easter is a different weekend as well.
