child custody and living abroad
i am attempting to move from england to belgium with my 19 month old son to set up home with my current partner. my ex partner (father of my son and whom i unfortunatly married) told me 8 weeks ago he no longer wanted to see his son until we were divorced, i said fine as i believe he is uncapable of looking after a child anyway. but now he finds out i am moving away he suddenly wants to see his son again, how will this affect me moving? can he legally stop me going does anyone know?

You'll need to speak to a family lawyer. Unless your ex has given up his parental rights, he is still entitled to seeing his child and most courts in Europe will inforce visitation rights, even across borders.
It is understandable that he wants to see your son agian, especailly if you planning on moving rather far away. After consulting a lawyer and knowing where you stand, arrange a visit and see just how difficult your ex wants to be over this move.

I'm afraid that you'll need an expert on the custody laws of the EU to answer that question.
I'm not one, but I found a link that may give you some helpful information: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
I think, though, that ultimately you may have to speak with an attorney.
Good luck!
