I wonder which way the Daily Express is leaning…?
In the most extensive survey of its kind, almost 16 per cent of Turkish adults said they would consider re-locating to the UK once their country becomes a full member of the EU.
According to the poll, which saw more than 2,600 adults interviewed across all 27 provinces of Turkey, most of those keen to come to Britain are either unemployed or students, raising the prospect of a migrant influx which would place an unprecedented strain on the UK’s struggling public services, including the NHS.
The results come as separate figures expose the security risk posed to the UK by Turkey’s accession to the EU – an ambition previously supported by the Prime Minister.
Analysis by Vote Leave suggests Turkey’s membership in the EU would result in far higher numbers of criminals coming to the UK.
Figures released by the campaign group show the crime rate in Turkey far exceeds that of the UK, with the murder rate at least four times that of Britain.
There are also nine million privately-owned firearms registered to its citizens…

An ‘exclusive’ poll for the Express and analysed by Vote Leave, suggesting that:
- 16% of the population would consider coming to Britain
- Students and the unemployed were the ones most keen to come here
- There would be an ‘unprecedented’ strain on the NHS and other public services
- ‘Far higher’ numbers of criminals would come to Britain, since Turkey has a crime rate that far exceeds Britain’s with four times as many murders
- And arms smuggling would increase because there are nine million firearms registered to Turks and we shall all be murdered in our beds
So absolutely no chance of any bias in the questions or skewing the answers to suit their purpose, then?
