Turkey - cattle ban

[Courier]

The ruthless drive by Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Turkey’s pugnacious president, to expand his already considerable executive powers knows no bounds. Even cows are not safe. At the height of last week’s furious row with the Netherlands, Turkey’s red-meat producers’ association said it was expelling 40 Holstein Friesian cattle. Dutch cows, like Dutch diplomats, were no longer welcome in Turkey.

Sounds like something Trump would do.

I'm sure even cattle would welcome the chance to get out of Turkey.

Think the blues have now got citizenship, they're now classed as British not belgian

Part of the reason I voted leave was the suggestion Turkey was wanting to join the EU.

A step too far among the multitude of other steps too far.

The sooner that vile fascist goes away the better.

Erdogan is reported as saying in a speech today that Germany and Netherlands will use gas chambers on Turks
