I've met quite a few Turks and I've really liked and respected them.
They've come to Britain for a better, more profitable and a more free life. What's not to like?

Oh and they love larger women and their version of misogyny is to give ladies they like free or highly discounted food; something that has never offended me. Then again if you have a lot of tanked-up male customers after the pubs close, maybe a porcelain-skinned lady who says please and thank-you is a breath of fresh air. Before I eat the onion anyway...

One of the barriers to Turkey's entry to the EU is their adherence to the death penalty.
Seems we deem it barbarous...

They've been a good friend to Europe, a mediator and reasonable East/ West buffer. Algeria, Morocco and Turkey are all on my wish-list for travel. Kebabs, souks and hamams/ massage do probably over-influence my opinion though.

Sorry, I did start off with the intention of making a real contribution to the debate, but I have Britain's Got Talent on in the background. I blame TV for dumbing down my posts. Well, that's what Sky News tells me anyway.
