@The EU Will Regret Its Dishonest, Humiliating Treatment of Turkey - Daniel Hannan,Conservative MEP.
Cameron's speech in Ankara has served to further expose the islamophiles in the conservative party in defense of Cameron all Hannan could argue was moral equivocation - What has the unhappy history of the Armenians in Turkey got to do with the EU? Was Belgium required by the other states to apologise for its role in the Congo, or France to grovel about Algeria?
In their islamic induced inverted narcissism the conservative party would surrender Continental Europe to islam - (Together I want us to pave the road from Ankara to Brussels, Cameron) in their madness do sections of the Tory Party think they can use islam as power leverage to destroy the EU. The same islamic power leverage they dream of implementing over the indigenous UK population.
