The EU is a failed institution

I am angered and appalled that the EU Commission and those petty bureaucrats are accusing and threatening Greece for not doing enough on “fixing deficiencies” in accordance to EU Schengen border controls and could face repercussions.

How dare they?
Greece is on the front line and its bearing the brunt of the refugee chaos and cost, triggered by the madness of war and Turkey’s complicity, and yet, Turkey is rewarded with a €3 billion gift and she’s asking for more for doing nothing.
Time to get out of the EU and euro. It is also time to take care of our nation and our own people first and in their best interests. But, that takes leadership that’s so badly missing here. Instead, we have  a corrupt petty-Kommatocratia (politicocracy) that controls the mind of the people. Very sad for the nation.
The EU is not working and never will. It’s a failed institution and the “good European” notion is dead and buried. Enough is enough. Cyprus must get out of this over-bloated over-regulated and unaccountable EU institutional trap before it’s also buried with it.

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.
