‘Good news: we don’t need you any more!’ In June 1991, the French cartoonist, Plantu, illustrates the consequences of the signing of the Convention implementing the Schengen Agreement which lays down the terms for the application of the free movement of persons between Belgium, France, the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), Luxembourg and the Netherlands and seeks the gradual abolition of checks at the common borders of the signatory states.
