One poll suggests that more than 12 million Turks would consider moving to Britain if Turkey joined the EU: http://cdn.images.express.co.uk/turkey-poll/RelocatingtoBritain_KONDA_Report.pdf The left-wing press has jumped on criticism on Turkish ascension as racist etc. insisting that all people are exchangeable.

MaceyUK Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Kids learn about Nazi propaganda in school but ignore the exact same thing in real life. Brexit is a complete no brainer but the fact that it's close is a sad indictment of the British population's naivety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
