CYPRUS has voted that ‘no one’ is the most popular politician in Cyprus, followed by opposition DISY leader Nicos Anastassiades, according to an online poll conducted by Politis between December 29, 2005 and January 7, 2006.


Is anyone really suprised?!

Man I have been saying this since I jumped on your forum:
I wouldn't vote for anyone over 40 years Old:
Hey was Fifiri and Karayiozis on the list: Id vote for them!
Politicians main aim and that what I was told when I was offered a seat for the Labor Party in Victoria: Your main aim is to line your pockets with money: Promise them everything and give them nothing:
Great MOTTO!
PS they missed one:
And take half of what they have!
My good friend John Pandazopolos got it and he is now Minster of Immigration and Gaming for Victoria:

ehm..

this is a stupid poll. and they also admited it themselves.
an online poll in a specific newspaper is not a serious study.
thats why anastasiadis came second after noone Smile

...

Bro', remember that 3/4 of Greek Cypriot's rejected the Annan Plan and thus supported their President's position and heard his clarion call for them to oppose this solution. Having spoken to a few of these 'oxi' voters, they may not like TPap personally, nor do they support his party DIKO, but they do view him as standing up for their rights. Therefore, perhaps the easiest way to explain things would be to say that Denktas and Papadopoulos' positions are similar in many ways - largely respected by their own people and hated by those on the other side of the line.

Hmmmmm....fair enough but lets hope the Greek Cypriot wake up to the truth of what Tpap is really doing like the Turkish Cypriot did with Denktash.

wild goose chase. they are not stupid enough to accept cash pay-offs. they come in free holidays, free meals, bits of land and most commonly mutual agreements
