[afrocarpus] EU Referendum in UK: How PM David Cameron is lying to the public about the potential exodus of Turkish nationals to UK ?
EU Referendum in UK: How PM David Cameron is lying to the public about the potential exodus of Turkish nationals to UK if UK vote to remain in EU?
Here is what the Prime Minister David Cameron in Ankara, Turkey, on 27 July 2010. It is absolutely contrary to what we are hearing from the Remain campaign about the future Turkish people exodus to UK.
--------------------------------------------
"I am here to make the case for Turkey's membership of the European Union and to fight for it. Do you know who said this? 'Here is a country which is not European, its history, its geography, its economy, its agriculture and the character of its people - admirable people though they are - all point in a different direction. This is a country which cannot, despite what it claims and perhaps even what it believes, be a full member.'
Now, that might sound like some Europeans describing Turkey. Actually it was General de Gaulle describing the United Kingdom, my country, before vetoing our accession to the European Union. So we know what it is like to be shut out of the club, but we also know that these things can change.
When I think about what Turkey has done to defend Europe as a NATO ally and what Turkey is doing today in Afghanistan alongside our European allies, it makes me angry that your progress towards EU membership can be frustrated in the way that it has been. My view is clear: I believe it is just wrong to say that Turkey can guard the camp but not be allowed to sit in the tent.
I will remain your strongest possible advocate for EU membership and for greater influence at the top table of European diplomacy. This is something I feel very strongly and very passionately about. Together I want us to pave the road from Ankara to Brussels.
To make the case for Turkey's membership of the EU and to seize the huge advances I believe that we can make in our trade and in our security, there are three groups that we have to take on directly."

The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile.
The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.
When the white man came we had the land and they had the bibles; now they have the land and we have the bibles.
