Hello Australia!! - France backs punishment for EU countries that don't help migrants - A restaurant refuses to serve Trump's mouthpiece over the US policy of putting migrant children in cages - Can Erdogan survive this weekend's election? - And more in your CareerSpot Global News Briefs:

French President Emmanuel Macron is calling for financial sanctions against EU countries which refuse to accept migrants.  "We can not have countries that benefit hugely from EU solidarity and claim national self-interest when it comes to the issue of migrants," he said, "I am in favor of sanctions being imposed in the event of no cooperation."  This comes amid increasing heat in Europe's migration crisis:  Italy's new right-wing government has refused to allow rescue ships to off-load hundreds of migrants who were rescued from trafficking operations in the Mediterranean Sea;  Malta is also refusing to accept a German-flagged rescue ship, but is sending life-saving aid to the migrants on the boat.  EU leaders will meet in Brussels for a mini-summit on immigration later on Sunday.

Thousands of anti-Brexit protesters marched in London to demand a new referendum on leaving the European Union, on the second anniversary of the shocking and still unexplained Brexit vote.  Since no one bothered to think it through past the xenophobia of soccer hooligans, the UK is bitterly divided on what sort of relationship it should have with the rest of the continent, and many think the Brexit is an awful idea.  The People's Vote campaign, which organized the rally, argues that public opinion is turning against Brexit as the economic costs become clearer.  Several European companies say they will have to leave the UK, at least until its economic relationship with its closest neighbors is sussed out.  Over the weekend, BMW warned that would have to close the Mini Cooper auto plant in Oxford, as well as Rolls Royce facilities.

Turkish strongman Recep Tayyip Erdogan probably won't be ousted in Sunday's elections, but opposition candidate Muharrem Ince does have a chance at forcing a run-off.  The two made their final pushes for support at rival rallies in Istanbul on Saturday; only Erdogan was given television coverage in the heavily pro-government media.  Millions have come out to rallies to hear Ince promise to reverse Erdogan's oppression of dissenting voices and moves towards dictatorship.

Netflix has sacked its head of communications over his use of the "N-word".  Jonathan Friedland had been discussing pejoratives and obscenities at two meetings about content, and used the most-insulting epithet towards Black Americans instead of practicing a little common sense and saying "the N word".  In an internal memo, Netflix boss Reed Hastings apologized to staff for not acting sooner.

White House Spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her party were asked to leave a restaurant in northern Virginia on Friday night, and that's blowing up the Internet among butthurt ultra-right snowflakes who want the Trump administration to insult and abuse everyone who doesn't happen to be white without suffering any consequences.  IN particular, there is widespread disgust over the Trump administration policy of separating the children of undocumented migrants and asylum seekers and shipping them off to holding facilities - sometimes tent cities, sometimes in abandoned retail stores, sometimes thousands of miles from where their parents are jailed.  It's the third time in recent days that a senior member of the orange clown's staff has their meals ruined by the disgust they caused.  Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was chased from a Mexican restaurant by protesters, as was far-right advisor Stephen Miller in another incident.

A Vatican tribunal sentenced the former Ambassador to the US to five years detention and a roughly AU$7,800 fine for possessing child pornography.  Monsignor Carlo Capella admitted to viewing the images.  He'll serve out his sentence in the Vatican barracks, which doesn't exactly sound like a prison.  He was arrested earlier this year after the US informed the Vatican that someone inside its Washington, DC Embassy was accessing illegal images.

Iraq launched a cross-border aerial attack into Syria, targeting and killing 45 high-profile leaders of the so-called Islamic State at a meeting in the town of Hajin.  IS used to occupy about a third of Iraq, but government troops and Kurds with a lot of help from US air cover basically ended that; Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared declared victory over the terrorist group in December but has continued to clean-up pockets of IS.

Zimbabwe President Emmerson Mnangagwa survived a bomb attack at a rally in the city of Bulawayo.  His Vice President Kembo Mohadi suffered a leg injury in the attack.  Mnangagwa came to power last November, ousting his former mentor Robert Mugabe.  Bulawayo is Zimbabwe's second city and an opposition stronghold.  

In Ethiopia, officials say one person has died and dozens more are injured in a grenade attack that was aimed at the new PM Abiy Ahmed, who described the attack as an "unsuccessful attempt by forces who do not want to see Ethiopia united".  The health minister said one person had died and 154 were injured at the attack at a rally in Addis Ababa's Meskel Square.
