It wasn't long ago that "ethnic cleansing" occured in a region of Europe formerly known as Yugoslavia, and before that in Germany.

Surely part of being in Europe means that we have some say in matters such as this. Or are you suggesting these events only become relevant when they happen on British soil?
I'm saying that we don't always do what France does for damned good reasons,that we are a democracy and despite all efforts we still are.
