The plan to divide EU Parliament's largest group (EPP/Christiandemocrats) by secession of a few MEPs to create a small group, mainly by British Conservatives and some others, is manipulated by a pro-Turkish lobby.
This is revealed also by the role of MEP Van Orden, a notoriously Turkish lobby member, who reportedly pushed Cameron, the young and energetic National leader of Brittish Conservatives, but inexperienced in EU affairs.
Poor old Cameron :
He only wanted to be critical vis a vis EU Bureacrats, Brussels' Commissioners, etc..
But, in fact, manipulated by Van Orden and the likes, he only... plays at the hands of EU Commission's brussels Bureaucrats, who are notoriously pushing for impopular Turkey to enter the EU !
Cameron should stay inside the largest group of EU Parliament, EPP, and act to change its positions from the inside, by struggling on certain crystal clear points, (fex. against EU Brussels' Commission's Bureaucrats, etc)
Otherwise, he will only be exploited by Socialists and Turkey...
