April Fools Day

I read this report on North Cyprus Free Press this morning and thought how wonderful the news was until I remembered what day it was. If it is in fact true then it is wonderful news for those who are involved. If it is an April Fools stunt then it is in very poor taste and in my opinion not much of a joke.

Not at all funny and in very bad taste!

Completely agree.

Lacks any form of sensitivity for those who live in hope.

I thought the first line gave it away as a joke,The Ministry of INFERIOR.

It was obviously meant as a joke but it is the topic that doesn't work. People have been suffering with this problem for years and it has affected their health. Hardly something to joke about and as I said previously in very bad taste.

No, not a funny situation, but I think you will find it was written by one of the unfortunate sufferers, just another way of trying to cope with it.

Kaiserphil, you have hit the nail as they say.

The article over the signature of "Pandora S Box" is also a bit of a giveaway.

Despite comments being made on the NCFP site I realised after the first read it was an April fools joke but still maintain it to be inappropriate and I do have a sense of humour.

PR has done a great deal to raise the profile of the ongoing property issues and she is to be applauded for her commitment to the issue but I do think she should stop publishing the same old articles and her life story.its not helping anyone.

Agreed......but sometimes sarcasm can be the lowest form of wit.
