Civil service: a monster that will consume the island

Cyprus has created a monster that will consume the island.

As a large percentage of the voters are the civil service or SGO’s (or their families) will any of them vote for a party that won’t refill their trough ?

Next election, as usual, the party that wins will as usual be the party that promises the most, particularly to the civil services and the unions. Ultimately this vicious circle will only be stopped when the government of the time runs out of money, making 2013 look like small scratch given the abyss we will find ourselves in.

In a country where accountibility and responsibility clearly don’t exist and denial and blaming others is the norm who  in charge now be around then to carry the can.

 

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
