Much has happened

Much has happened in the week I was away. The Mumbai attacks reminded us all how quickly normality can be shed for terror. I have no doubt that those responsible should be hunted down and brought to justice. A British Parliamentrian was arrested for serving the public interest. I supported 42 days, I don't support a police state and that is what this appeared to be. And a Swedish MEP who was simply following his conscience was unable to move sects to the ED within the broader EPP-ED pact in the European Parliament. I don't understand, can Euro politicians not see that it is things like this that are the reason the EU is held in such low esteem? The EU should cherish and care about democracy from the local to EU level.
