The members and friends of the Labour Cypriot Society worked hard during the pre-election period, shoulder to shoulder with other Labour members and supporters and now, together with the landslide victory of the Labour Party, they are able to celebrate the election of two Cypriot Labour MPs.
In my 52 years in the UK, I find the 2024 UK general election is the most amazing in terms of how many newspapers and other mass media have expressed their support for a Labour victory. It is important to see why these newspapers and other mass media support a Labour victory in the 2024 […]

How can she deliver when her policies are fundamentally catastrophic, based on sending weapons […]
One million people may cancel their direct debit payments to energy companies en masse on 1st October. Are there any Cypriots among them? It would be very interesting to hear what they think and what they are planning to do.
The real cause of the energy problem is our own backfiring sanctions on Russia, following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – for which we are as guilty as Russia – together, of course, with the incredible greed of the energy companies. The problem cannot be solved as long as the current East-West economic warfare and the […]
All of the candidates for the Conservative leadership and UK premiership have promised to keep the controversial Rwanda policy, which has been widely criticised by charities, human rights groups and bishops.
