Gotta love the BBC headline on this story - especially when the article quotes the statistics showing almost twice as many EU nationals came to live in Britain post-Brexit than have left. #despiteBrexitpic.twitter.com/ixWpMLsUkq

Visas for Turks travelling within the Schengen zone, the UK and Ireland were excluded from the proposal.
Don't let facts get in the way of a good lie

Finally, does it matter, if it was not "official EU policy? It was alleged by our press, and like many other allegations that they make without foundation, it made the headlines. - Again with the wilful intent to mislead and misdirect the public.
Headline number two, little hint heading our direction wouldn't you say? Or is that supposition on my part? -http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3572156/Europe-let-127-million-Turks-Ukrainians-disappear-forever-scraps-visas-no-way-tracking-tourists-never-leave.html …
Er.... one of the countries that is unable to track when vistors leave is.... drumroll.... the United Kingdom! That's why the Home Office vastly overestimated the number of students staying, thereby vastly overestimating the immigration statistics.
Hmm and the Gov't probably did that deliberately. Massage the immigration statistics, to enhance the case for brexit. There is no low that either the right wing or the @conservatives will not stoop to for the sake of their brexit. - Even the Good Friday Agreement is negotiable
It was not EU policy: it could therefore not have been supported by the UK. As the UK is not a signatory to the Schengen treaty, even with a visum, a Turkish citizen would not have had an automatic right to enter GB. Your tweet is sublimely inaccurate.
Eh, what type of visas? Did I miss this? If it's a simple statement of fact it will be easy to back it up with some evidence, won't it…won't it?
So where are those 70 million Turks, did EU & UK suddenly change their minds after the Referendum?, it was never true as you well know.
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/1271200/more-than-100000-turks-a-year-will-flock-to-britain-after-it-joins-the-eu-pushing-net-migration-to-a-staggering-420000/ … And one from The Sun, Incidentally the same paper that printed @jeremycorbyn was a Czech spy, I mean seriously? - If you are going to point errors in headlines, at least do it fairly. But, fairness and honesty is something our press is incapable of.
Steady on, the fascist cult #FBPE don't like facts.
