    EU expansion halted as job fears spark new rifts

    The Dutch and German governments have effectively put a block on any further eastwards expansion of the EU, fearing that it could stoke up tensions over unemployment during the economic crisis.
    Waves of protests right across the EU are believed to have influenced the decision. Very interesting.
