THE BBC AND AN IRONIC TWIST TO ITS IMPARTIAL LEGACY

 Cyprus Mail 16 November 2025 - by Alper Ali Riza



The BBC has robustly rejected Trump’s claim for compensation

President Donald Trump told reporters aboard Airforce One on Friday that he will sue the BBC for between $1 and $5 billion for cheating and putting words in his mouth in a Panorama television edit that featured a few seconds of his speech at the Ellipse outside the White House on January 6, 2021, for which the BBC’s director general and head of news resigned last week

The BBC is a fine broadcasting institution renowned worldwide for its reliable news and political analyses. And Panorama is its oldest current affairs flagship programme on television. It has been presented since 1953 by Britain’s best television journalists: Richard and his son David Dimbleby, Sir Robin Day, Sir Ludovic Kennedy, Sir Charles Wheeler and others.

POLITICAL EARTHQUAKES PREDICTED FOR CYPRUS ELECTIONS AS MAJOR PARTIES FACE COLLAPSE

 in-cyprus 16 November 2025 - by Frixos Dalitis



Powerful seismic and aftershocks are predicted for the political scene in Cyprus, as the trends recorded so far suggest the country, besides the geological earthquake, will be hit by the electoral upheaval of the parliamentary elections. The time distance from Sunday, May 24, 2026, may be significant, yet analysts’ assessments indicate that, generally, a disposition for a negative vote exists towards traditional parties and a tendency towards more anti-establishment choices.

The last two public opinion polls from Reporter and RIK reflect these societal trends, which, if ultimately expressed at the ballot box, predict strong political Richter magnitudes. These, in turn, are expected to cause a domino effect of developments in the parties’ high offices.

OLIVE OIL CHEAPER THIS YEAR - BUT NOT BY EVERYONE

 Filenews 16 November 2025



Demand for olive oil is forecast to continue to rise, due in part to its low price, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations said on Friday, expecting a "possible" record level of trade during the current period, despite tariffs imposed by the US government.

After a period of drought that led to a decrease in supply and a sharp increase in price, at the beginning of 2024, production was restored and is expected to be stable for the 2025-26 season, at 3.4 million tons, according to the FAO.
