It looks to me like the beginning of the end.

You really need to study up on anatomy, physiology as well as how the circulatory system functions.
It’s pretty comical to see European and Democratic leaders now endorsing the same policies they declared Trump to be a White Nationalist and Racist over.

“A total of 164 nations signed up to the agreement today - including the UK - but none are legally bound to make good on the goals.”
Not legally binding ? Then why the need to sign anything ?

The Government has responded to the petition you signed – “The UK should not agree the UN’s Global Compact for Migration”.
Government responded:
The Global Compact for Migration will support global co-operation on migration without affecting the sovereignty of all countries to control their own borders.
Uncontrolled migration erodes public confidence, damages economies, and places those on the move in situations of intense vulnerability. The UK is taking significant steps to tackle uncontrolled migration by:
- Addressing the root causes of migration, through our targeted assistance for livelihoods, healthcare, education and economic development
- Tackling modern slavery and organised immigration crime
- Supporting enhanced border management
- Providing critical humanitarian support and protection for vulnerable migrants, as well as offering voluntary return and vital reintegration support to those wishing to return home
- Supporting refugees to stay in a first safe country through our humanitarian and development work in Africa, the Middle East and Asia
The Global Compact for Migration embeds these efforts within the global system, enhances cooperation between states, and sets out ways that countries may choose to deliver these objectives.
The Compact is not legally binding. It creates a framework to allow countries to work together to make global migration more beneficial for everyone.
It respects the sovereignty of all states to decide who enters their territory. It will not affect our ability to determine and implement our own migration policies, including in areas such as asylum, border controls and returns of illegal migrants.
It does not establish a ‘human right to migrate’ or create any new legal categories of migrant. It explicitly stresses that migrants are entitled to the same universal human rights as any human being, and that these are different to the legal protections available to refugees.
Too many people, including vulnerable women and girls, are taking risky journeys to migrate through dangerous channels. The Compact will help us take important steps to keep migrants around the world safer and to protect the most vulnerable, by supporting international cooperation on the protection of migrants, in line with our obligations under international law. It outlines ways of preventing exploitation, and of combating the heinous crime of modern slavery.
A key objective of the document is to support cooperation on reducing uncontrolled migration. It sets out the responsibility of countries of origin to ensure effective control of their borders, and to cooperate in accepting the return of their nationals when they no longer have the right to remain in another country. Furthermore, the text also calls on countries of origin to work with the international community to address the drivers of irregular migration, by creating economic opportunities for populations in source countries, and improving governance and respect for the rule of law.
When migration is safe and regular, it can bring great prosperity. The Compact also sets out possible actions to harness the economic benefits of safer, regular migration, for example by reducing the costs of remittances that migrants send home. These can foster economic development in source countries, helping to address some of the causes of migration.
The Compact is the result of months of intergovernmental negotiations. Though it is legally non-binding and no country can be compelled to conform with its provisions, we are aware that a small number of countries have chosen not to endorse it. We respect this choice and note that countries will be able to endorse the Compact, or cooperate with other states on delivering its objectives, at any point in the future.

So they have something with which to beat each other over the head during the next refugee crisis or other mass migration move.
Sounds like the electorate are going to be ignored again
I read it Jen. That’s what makes me say if it’s not binding why the need to sign anything.
Signing things usually forms a contract.

No one to beat over the head if majority have signed. For us in the UK it flies in the face of our current objective and that is to leave the EU and have full control of our borders. It really does show what the government is committed to. It’s no surprise to me, there always comes a point when the traitors just can’t hide any more.
We have already signed Dev according to the article from the Express.
You misunderstand. I’m talking about countries here. When the next migration crisis occurs and some object to the numbers they are supposed to be taking in they’ll be beating each other over the head with this agreement.
Virtue signaling for now, a weapon to use against each other later.
I hear what you are saying but the countries that have signed have already rolled over, they are willing participants to globalism, so likely no head bashing required. Those who have said FU to it won’t need to fear head bashing and clearly don’t give a shit what the UN thinks.

…it will be economic migrants fleeing the hell-hole that was Europe!
Still … I suppose Halliburton et al will get the contracts to repair the damage…

I’m not sure how the EU defines it but…
According to the United States Department of State, a non - binding contract lays out the terms of an agreement without obligating either party to fulfill the terms. It is used to create an understanding of an agreement before a formal agreement is written out or finalized.
It is the precursor to a binding agreement.
Or it’s just all for show.

Ive read the pact, no wonder Trump pulled out, and Im proud of Hungary’s leader for joining Trump along with Austria, Australia, Croatia and Slovenia ( they should know they have huge migration problems)
The pact is a joke, and an example of why Unelected bureaucrats should never been in charge of deciding what nations should do.
The citizens of those countries should decide what is best for them not the U.N.

The whole point of the UN and most of it’s members is to eventually become the global gov’t with all others being relegated to simply instruments to implement UN Decrees.
Democracy sounds great till the have nots far outnumber the have’s and then it’s nothing more than “mob rule”.
The main purpose of the UN for the last 20-30 years has been to transfer the wealth and power of the first world nations to the 2nd and 3rd world and little by little they are gaining every day.
