YABU to post links to GB News and The Express.

YABU to think only 1 news source is credible - Guardian reader by any chance?

SincerelyDoubtIt · 02/03/2026 14:16

I mean, we were posting about this development over an hour ago on the other Cyprus thread, but you go off with your exciting links 😄

Glad you found them 'exciting', personally, I find them all much the same, in that they all relay the same information.

No, they’re just someone with a totalitarian attitude and superiority complex.

There are plenty that are credible. The Express devotes 50% of its flatplan to nonexistent extreme weather events.

EasyJet cancels UK Cyprus flights following drone attack on RAF base - Mirror Online

The airline has also said that currently flights on March 3 are "operating as planned" but passengers are advised to check for any updates."

What’s your AIBU?

There isn't one, hence why I removed the poll. It was just an information post. I appreciate that some are interested and others not though.

Best not to let posters like that bother me. Thank you anyway for concern. 😊

Maybe, information is useful to some, that's why I shared it. I think most adults are able to read and scroll by, if of no interest.

Although a British airbase in Cyprus, perhaps surprising that drones have been sent that far.

Your thread is relevant, getting the message out to people that Trump really needs to come to his senses and stop bombing Iran and killing world leaders if he wants to do what he promised to do which is avoid ww3 and the only way we get this to happen is public opinion. Or perhaps it isn't Trump we should be applying to anymore, it is the people who are forcing all this behind the scenes.

We are basically in 1984, aren't we? Eurasia and the other continent constantly at war, being "the west" (though not the people) vs BRICS. Only public opinion will put a stop to it.

Really boring when PPs attack the OP for starting a discussion.

OP thanks for flagging this up. I’ve never thought of Cyrus as a risky holiday destination but I suppose it is in very close proximity to an unstable part of the world.

Thank you.

I thought it would interest some people. You always get 'a few' on social media .... they are best ignored.

They’re like sheep. One starts and the rest follow. 🙄

YABU to post links to GB News and The Express.

Why? I skip to all channels, from al jazeera to NDTV back to Bbc to get ALL views. I do not get all my current affairs news from 1 channel.

Livingthebestlife · 02/03/2026 14:50

Thank you for your post, there was a poster only asking yesterday re Cyprus, must check if she's aware.

sittingonabeach · 02/03/2026 14:50

Are the posters berating this OP the same ones who berated another poster yesterday who was worried about her holiday to Cyprus

I didn't realise that. Hopefully she has been notified by airline or seen the latest news. So much changes in just 24 hours.

A public service announcement you say?

OP should have done it in the same style as The Clash… “….with guitars!”

Today, in the least surprising news ever...

Tell that to posters on the Cyprus Holiday thread yesterday who were saying it was obviously safe because it had a British Military base! You couldn"t make it up really, this was inevitable as soon as the attacks were launched yesterday.
