    Are these dudes not part of the EU now? Or are they still waiting entry?

    Haha, I've just realised how funny that title is.

    What did the old turkey say to the teenage delinquent turkey?





    If your father saw you he'd turn over in his gravy.

    Freedom of speech dude. Tweet Tweet!

    I reckon the turkey just wanted to lord it over the little tweety burds who couldn't do a proper gobble.

    Well Syrians were slaughtered by a corrupt dictator who got away with it, Putin just stole Crimea and got away with it, so that leaves the door wide open to Turkeys dictator to take away a social media form to stop people discussing his corruption.

    Not to worry though, I'm sure Nato will have a meeting or 10 and discuss the possible possibilty of maybe doing something sometime in the distant future, maybe.
