N-VA wants a mandatory test on the Flemish culture as integration policy
A mandatory test on the Flemish culture: the N-VA (New Flemish Alliance) invests in a much stricter integration policy. N-VA is keen to invest heavily in a much stricter integration policy, according to a draft of a note from the Flemish negotiators. In opinion leader of Bart De Wever, integration policies in Belgium are of "great weakness".
An obligatory test should be used to show the knowledge of the "Flemish cannon", a list of anchors of Flemish culture and history that students and newcomers will need to know. This working document can be further negotiated in more detail. One thing is certain, notes De Morgen, if the integration policy is entrusted to the N-VA, it will lead to an increase in obligations and fewer rights.

"A project that contributes to the unacceptable exclusion of the Corsicans from their own land. This transfer of land excluding the Corsicans for the benefit of people or financial groups outside the island must be fought by all the Corsican people and is not inevitable, detailed Eric Simoni.
Corsica Libera recalled the will of Jean-Guy Talamoni, Speaker of the Corsica's Parliament, to establish a statute of resident "to fight against the speculation and the unacceptable exclusion of the Corsicans of their own ground".

Nine Catalans detained by the Spanish military police
Last year two other activists were accused – one of them, Adrià Carrasco, went into exile, and the other one, Tamara Carrasco, was held in her town before the charges were dropped for both.
The CDR organization reacted to the arrests on Twitter, saying: "No matter how many indiscriminate raids and arbitrary detentions there are, they won't stop a determined and combative people."
The CDR, or Committees for the Defence of the Republic, are a network of pro-independence assemblies set up in 2017 that defend the bid split from Spain by promoting peaceful demonstrations and protests. The arrests come as the verdict in the trial of independence leaders in the Supreme Court is due out soon.
Protest against the indictment "for terrorism" of 5 Sardinians for demonstrations against military base
Five Sardinian people were under investigation "for terrorism" as part of an Italian police investigation into demonstrations against military bases in Sardinia organized between 2014 and 2017 by the crossparty movement A Foras-- Contra a s'ocupatzione militare de sa Sardigna who leads the conflict against the military occupation of Sardinia. A Foras was founded on June 2016. Yestarday some dozens concentraded in Casteddu against the repression saying that the military bases cause terror not the protests against them. A rally is organized by A Foras on October 12nd against the military bases.
For more then 50 years Sardinia has been occupied on thousands of hectares by military firing ranges, military airports and bases, a bomb factory and at least a hundred other military buildings. On our island, nearly two thirds of the total Italian military asset is “hosted”. But never have we remained just watching: since the 1960s various actions have been brought up, including demonstrations and protests, the most famous one being the one of Pratobello, near Orgosolo, in 1969, but we can also remember Tertenia, Sinis and La Maddalena.
In the last three years new life has been given to the movement, starting from the big demo against the Military Range of Capo Frasca in September 2014, which ended in an en masse entrance of protesters beyond the military nets. Since then, there have been more demos and obstructions against military drills. The movement has so found in direct action one of its most fruitful practices. On the other hand, the Italian State, with the silence of Sardinian government, has continuously shown brute force and its muscles. Bigger drills have been organized over the last years, occupying also new parts of Sardinian waters: an example is the Mare Aperto 2017 drill that caused fishermen to be cleared out from their usual fishing grounds. Other interests of our counter party have been the expansion of the bomb factory at Domusnovas, the so called RWM, and the further state financing of the Sardinia AeroSpace District, called DASS. For these reasons, the single and few demonstrations cannot be enough: it is necessary to start a structured political project on various levels that works on short, medium and long terms, knowing that our conflict won’t end in a few years.
has come up with different actions: demos at Capofrasca and Quirra to block military drills, a festival on June 2nd 2017 in Cagliari with a mass demo and an event where many artists have played to support our cause, organizing encounters in schools, universities and towns. On these occasions, we have presented our works and dossiers on the damage done by the military occupation of our island and raise up the debate for so much time soothed by the stance and the fabrications of the Italian Ministry of Defense.
All these activities wouldn’t have been possible without the creation of the six permanent working-tables which, hand in hand with the general assembly, make up the backbone of A FORAS. These tables, whose work is dedicated among other things to activism in schools and universities, to the communication and the effects of the military bases on the territories, were actually born during the first A Foras Camp, which was in 2016 in Lanusei. Last year’s event has been essential also for the rooting of the movement in the area of Ogliastra. This area and the one of Sarrabus are oppressed by the biggest military range in Europe, the one of Quirra. The latter being the stage of thorium missile launches, the abandonment of military waste below and above ground, and most of all it is sadly famous for a syndrome that carries its name that has caused heavy damage to the wellbeing and health of the surrounding population.

☆ LA LEGGE È UGUALE PER TUTTI?
Ebbene sì, nel paese ove la metà abbondante della cittadinanza rientra nella categoria degli ANALFABETI FUNZIONALI, esistono dei tribunali.
L’assurdità continuerà a farla da padrone, coerente a se stessa, pur di giustificare la totale incongruenza entro la quale si muove?
☆ La Legge 881/77 parla chiaro. ☆
Uno stato in DIFETTO ASSOLUTO DI GIURISDIZIONE nei Territori Veneti (D.Lgs. 212/2010), che continua a sperperare denaro pubblico e persevera nel voler mantenere sotto processo degli individui “colpevoli di rivendicare” soltanto l’applicazione di leggi da esso stesso promulgate, che cos’è?
☆ La Legge 881/77 parla chiaro. ☆
Accusare degli AUTODETERMINATI di “associazione a delinquere” e di “istigazione a non pagare le tasse”, cosa può essere, se non una stolta ed ostinata contraddizione?
Ditecelo Voi, per favore, aiutateci a comprendere, perché noi abbiamo tentato invano.
UNA COSA È CHIARA A TUTTI:
LE IDEE FANNO SEMPRE PAURA,
PIÙ DELLE ARMI… MOLTO DI PIÙ!
LO SAPPIAMO E LORO LO SANNO.
Tra le varie amenità, nei verbali di accusa ci sono presenti anche delle falsità inventate di sana pianta, pur di confezionare un pacchetto di accuse.
LA DENUNCIA DEGLI INDIPENDENTISTI NEI CONFRONTI DI ESPONENTI DELLE FORZE DELL’ORDINE continua imperterrita.
Siamo sempre più curiosi di sapere come andrà a finire l’intera vicenda.
