Is the very idea of the European Union under threat? EU Parliament elections are coming up and, according to opinion polls, the far-right is projected to do well. Right-wing Eurosceptic parties have been on the rise in recent years, but ahead of these elections there are renewed concerns about their impact on the European Union. We look at what may happen if the EU Parliament gets a sizable coalition of far-right Eurosceptics at 1930GMT.

Tallinn's unlikely twin By Abdul Turay First published November 2008 The idea behind twinning is that two vaguely similar cities exchange cultural links for their mutual benefit. Warsaw is twinned with Coventry – both cities were flattened by the Luftwaffe, after all. Tartu, the famous Estonian university town, is twined with Uppsala which is the home to the oldest university in Scandinavia. And Tallinn… Tallinn is twinned with Dartford. Come again, Dartford! For those of you who don’t know Britain well, Dartford is a dull dormitory suburb on the back end of London. Dartford is in the county of Kent, the so-called “garden of England”. Technically it is both a town and a borough , but it is not a city since it doesn’t have a Royal charter to call itself that. Say the word “Dartford” to most Britons, and they will answer back “tunnel”. The Dartford crossing is both a tunnel and a bridge. It links up Kent with London both above and below the river Thames.

Black men, Estonian women: the truth By Abdul Turay Published Postimees 11 November 2009 Well that got your attention; the headline I mean. Any story on this subject, the technical term is miscegenation, is bound to get punters. The yellow media, women's magazines and reality TV shows are obsessed with the subject. Not a month goes by without some publication writing about it. Anne and Style, for example, recently ran a long feature about mixed couples. Most of these stories are muddle-headed and wrong. There's paranoia in this country that there is an army of dark-skinned men form Turkey, the tropics, some place south, who are going to make off with the nation's women. It's never going to happen. I'll explain why in a minute. Seriously, I think there are more important things to think about and worry about. I worry about feeding my family. I worry about other people being able to feed their families, so I write about politics and economics. But the p

Intervjuu Juuli 2016 Ajakirjanik    Kui vana te olete? Abdul Turay:  Ma olen 49aastane Kui kaua olete Eestis elanud?  Ligikaudu 8 aastat. Miks otsustasite Inglismaalt lahkuda?  Tulin Eestisse perekondlikel põhjustel. Kui olen inimestega siiatuleku põhjuseid arutanud, on nad öelnud, et see oli igati mõistlik samm. Loomulikult pidin tegema majanduslikke kompromisse. Hetkel teenin vähem, kui teenisin Inglismaal enne siiatulekut, ehk 8 aastat tagasi. Olen saanud palju kriitikat – inimesed heidavad mulle ette, et olen volikogus ainult palga pärast. Kui hooliksin rahast, läheksin tagasi Inglismaale, seal teeniksin tunduvalt rohkem kui siin. Mis on teie arvates märgid, et inimene on Eesti ühiskonnaga integreerunud? Eesti keel. Ma ei usu, et inimene on täielikult integreerunud enne, kui ta on ära õppinud eesti keele. Kas peale keele on veel midagi? Tundsin, et olen integreerunud pärast seda, kui mind hakati avalikult laimama. Sain laimu nii meedial
