OUT with Britain IN with Turkey: Turks arrive in Brussels and argue EU needs them now

OUT with Britain IN with Turkey: Turks arrive in Brussels and argue EU needs them now, by Emily Fox.

Just 48 hours after David Cameron waved farewell to EU bureaucrats, Turkish officials landed in Brussels to launch their latest bid.

In a shameless bid to jump on Brexit, EU minister Omer Celik claimed the EU NEEDED Turkey and said his country had economic and geopolitical weight that would replace the loss of the British.

Great. Maybe when the Netherlands leaves the EU could add Syria, or maybe when France leaves they could add Algeria? After all, European civilization used to encompass the whole Mediterranean centuries ago, before Islam conquered it and colonized it with Arabs.
