Power in the Hands of the Ruling Class is a Discordant Band

In a scathing commentary on the current political situation in Cyprus, the author compares power in the hands of the ruling class to a discordant band, implying incompetence and corruption. He highlights the public's disappointment with the incompetence and corruption of the Christodoulides government, which he sees as a continuation of the previous Anastasiades administration. The article refers to the recent scandal involving the video, the involvement of high-ranking officials, and the reaction of the Presidency and the First Lady, characterizing them as “the icing on the cake” of corruption. The author emphasizes the contrast between the government's pride in development and the difficulties faced by society, as well as problems in healthcare, education, and security.
