What is ethics?

Ethics is a sphere of philosophy that apply for definition of what is good
and what is bad. Moreover, it determinates rules of good behavior, proper
lifestyle. Ethics establishes the standards of our life, shows us the right
direction in a every day life.

Political life

Being a politician means mainly to be a member of some social group in which
people have the same values. But as it’s widely known everyone of us
different. And what if one member of our group does something against the law? Do
we have to punish him? Or should we keep it for ourselves? That situation
often happens in a political world nowadays. Today it is hard to notice examples
of a superiority ethics above political interest. Politicians often forget
that they are spokesman for a big group of electors and do only things that
can help them to earn more money.

Some examples of unethical practices

- putting family members on high positions in big companies 
- buying votes before election
- gossiping about maked-up stories about other politicians, especially from
other party
- using offensive gestures and words
- behaving in improperly way, particularly in public places
- abusing position for unethical aims
- hiding behind immunity
- making immoral proposals
- corruption

In polish government were a lot of scandals especially sex scandals.
Unquestionable star of them was Aneta Krawczyk. If you want to read more about that

I don’t know if it is ethical or not, but on this video Silvio Berlusconig
acts in a strange way:

European Parliment p. 1

Hello everybody!

Since in July, there is an election for European Parliment, I'd like to present to you some facts, figures and funny data about this institution and elections.
So to begin with, here is the EP page - time machine to year 1979:
http://www.europarl.europa.eu/elections2009/results/default.htm?language=EN
With this funny page, you'd be able to compare and contrast differences between those years.

Due to other work, ill update this post till midnight.

The European Parliament

The European Parliament is the only directly-elected body of the European Union. The 785 Members of the European Parliament are there to represent you, the citizen. They are elected once every five years by voters right across the 27 Member States of the European Union on behalf of its 492 million citizens.

Parliament plays an active role in drafting legislation which has an impact on the daily lives of its citizens: For example, on environmental protection, consumer rights, equal opportunities, transport, and the free movement of workers, capital, services and goods. Parliament also has joint power with the Council over the annual budget of the European Union.

The face of the European Parliament 2007- 09:

The present Parliament has 785 members
from all 27 EU countries. Nearly one third of them are
women.

The President of the European Parliament is elected for a renewable
term of two and a half years, i.e. half the lifetime of
a Parliamentary term. The President represents the European
Parliament vis-ŕ-vis the outside world and in its relations with
the other Community institutions. If you want to see the list of Presidents of The European Parliament (1958- 2009) look here:
