Finally I'm confused by your final statement - which country is the 'future full member' you refer to?

In 1974 Turkey invaded Cyprus and is holding a third of the island.

Now you're big on human rights what about  the human rights of the Cypriots who got murdered during this illegal invasion or the human rights of the Cypriots who forty one years later are still not allowed back to their homes or access to their own land.

Or that the Turks looted all of the Churches cut off all the crosses on  top of them and use the churches to stable animals now.

This is recent history not ancient history.

This is not what I signed up to forty three years ago when we joined the common market, I was told it was just a trading partnership not that we were handing over not only our future but also our descendants futures to faceless bureaucrats.

The sooner we're out the better as far as I'm concerned, we were around and survived a long time before this nonsense started and we will be around and survive after it's gone to the wall, now it's just a matter of damage limitation.
