It appears that many regard the UN Migration Pact as being an encouragement  to economic migration, and there where violent protests in Belgiumshire over the weekend. 

Sales of Atlases around the world skyrocketed, as people flocked to try and work out where Belgium actually IS !

Hmm... a worrying list. Be aware, however, that Poland (and Hungary) are NOT having their "EU voting rights" suspended. They are merely being suspended from the European Network of Councils for the Judiciary. This is NOT an organ of the EU.. it's more like an international private members debating club.
