HELLO...Recep Tayyip Erdogan
An English artist whose work was found to have mocked Turkey's prime minister has been handed a fine in place of a jail term. Michael Dickinson, 59, originally from County Durham, created "Good Boy" which showed Recep Tayyip Erdogan as a dog.
During the hearing today, the prosecutor had insisted he should face a custodial sentence for his cartoon.
The judge ruled that he had insulted the prime minister and handed him the prison term, which he then commuted to a fine equivalent to about £3,000.
Well, Mr Recep Tayyip Erdogan, you will have to join the European Union and then get an 'EU arrest warrant' to get me.
Because as sure as dogs bollocks is dogs bollocks I wont be going to Turkey any time soon.
