Cyprus 'Eurogeddon': deserted streets of a country closed for business...

Ever since the credit crunch turned into a currency crisis, Europe has asked: what will it all look like when the cash dries up? Now we know the answer: Cyprus.

Eurogeddon is sweeping the island. Its leaders are still working to avert catastrophe, but for residents, it had already struck.

Unlike a Hollywood film, there is no stampede out of town. No-one can afford to waste the petrol.

The motorway that traverses the island connecting Paphos in the west to Limassol and Larnaka in the east and the capital Nicosia in the north is nearly deserted.

No more than a few dozen cars lit up its entire 100-mile length.

 To say there was no Friday afternoon bustle would be an understatement. Every shop along a strip on Archbishop Makarios Avenue in central Nicosia reported to have had not a single customer all day. Full story...
