BBC NEWS | The Reporters | Mark Mardell


BBC NEWS | The Reporters | Mark Mardell

BBC Blogger Mark Mardell is trying to make sense of the Belgian flags outside his window on his euroblog. A nice analysis about Belgium though very British, it is not such a big deal, there is a political compromise in the making and normal people are not divided! Funny to read the British comments on his article. Is shows that international media only follow the francophone press and not the Flemish papers. Since the Francophone press tends likes to depict the Flemish as separatists (even though this is a small minority), the problem is aggravated for no reason. Anyhow, Brussels cannot be divided and a lot of BRUSSELAARS do not identify with Walloons but only with Brussels. Anyhow, even without love for surrealism, Belgium does not need to be separated, just needs a new government and we are almost there I believe.
