Chris Tippett,
We only know of it now as it has only recently come to light,and as I have already said no public consultation was taken in Incirikoy or Uzumlu only in Kuru Koy which has approx 20 inhabitants and they were sold it by way of a new road and local jobs.
As far as local Turks with vested interests being involved, the protest was started by them and they came to tell us expats who have chosen to live here. Our Turkish builder knew nothing about it till the current action began and he came to the meeting. There were a good proportion of Turks at the meeting who were quiet vocal in their opposition so your comments about "millionaire brits" I find very cynical.
You have 2 choices go with your cynicism and do nothing or join in with others of all nationalities and at least try to stop it.
I am ever an optimist and while there is a chance we all maybe able to do something I will try and if unsuccessful at least I know I will have done my best.
I hope you will choose to join us and fight it.
