BREXIT – What is it all about - ERX🌎 NEWS NETWORK

When the British people enter the polling booths on June 23rd, border controls, ability to make own laws and huge EU membership fees will all be major factors.

But more than that, the referendum will also be a vote on whether Britons want to be in political union with Turkey.

David Cameron supports Turkey’s accession to the EU, as does Angela Merkel. And yet, the EU’s own report says today that Turkish visa free movement within the EU – rashly agreed as part of a package in March to tackle the migrant crisis and speed up the accession process – will increase the risk of terrorism in Europe.

This only reinforces the fact that EU membership puts UK national security at risk.

”The only way we protect ourselves from Isil sponsored terrorists is by voting for Brexit” – Said a Briton.

Turkey’s 77 million citizens will have the right to enter the Schengen zone for up to 90 days from the end of June. And when they become EU citizens at some time at the end of this decade or the beginning of the next, they will all be granted EU passports – giving them the right to come to Britain.

This is a country that has a porous border with Iran, Iraq and Syria, curbs the freedom of the press and abuses human rights. Only three per cent of the country’s landmass lies within the Europe, but the UK, the home of liberal parliamentary democracy, will be in political union with it under a European flag if Britons stay in the EU.

The consequences could be grave. UK will open her borders to a rapidly growing Turkish population. It grew from under 50 million in 1985 to 77 million in 2015. It is projected to overtake Germany’s declining population by 2018 and reach over 95 million by 2050.

Turkey would therefore have the largest population in the EU, have the largest group of MEPs in the European Parliament and the largest voting power of any member state under the Qualified Majority Voting system.

UK’s pitiful influence within the EU will be further undermined. Turkey will have more voting rights in the Council of Ministers and more MEPs in the European Parliament than the UK.

And then there are the economics. Turkey has a GDP per capita less than one quarter of the UK’s and on a par with Romania and Bulgaria. UK living standards and the national minimum wage have proved a magnet for Romanian and Bulgarian economic migrants and will prove the same for over 77 million Turkish migrants – as will George Osborne’s national living wage of £9 per hour promised by 2020.
Despite all of this, the Prime Minister reaffirmed last October that his government supported Turkey’s membership of the EU.

The EU’s own analysis of granting Turkey visa free access, just the latest stepping stone on their route to fully fledged membership, should tell us all we need to know.
