No, he's doing us a favour, creating a production line of young, fit, net contributing migrants to come to ageing Europe to keep us in the style to which we've become accustomed and when they've done all that, go back home to Turkey so as not to create a drain on the NHS and an even larger population of old folks here which simply causes the cycle to repeat and get worse. No, I really don't see any down side at all...
Just how long does anyone think Turkey's going to be stalled by the EU before the inevitable decision to admit them is made? Despite what Cameron, and others, like to pretend, if we remain in the EU, they will find 'irrefutable' reasons and create the required mechanisms through which to ensure they are allowed to join. Of course when that happens my satisfaction at being proved right will be nullified by the subsequent ramifications but hey ho...
