David Cameron quote
“When I think about what Turkey has done to defend Europe as a Nato ally... it makes me angry that your progress towards EU membership can be frustrated in the way it has been... My view is clear. I believe it’s just wrong to say Turkey can guard the camp but not be allowed to sit inside the tent.” 27th July 2010
