Hurrah. The daily life of citizens will be simplified.

On what legal basis this abandonment of national sovereignty is
taking place is not clear.

"A French-Belgian parliamentarian working group was set up at the end

enterprises of our territory"

Many people in Lille work in Belgioum. many people in Belgium work in
Lille. It's like crossing the border between Hertfordshore and Essex.
What's your problem exactly? Don't you think that the Lillios and the

Ha! Next you'll be claiming they were asked.
