A debate about the shape of the European Union is ahead of us. I would, therefore, advise all potential participants to this debate to familiarise themselves with some seemingly obvious facts. The Union which we entered in 2004 is over. The time of proportional development when the alternative: wider (more countries) or deeper (greater integration) [...]

It rarely happens that I disagree with wise people, who write about women’s or family rights. Whom I mean in this case is Krystyna Kofta. She was outraged by the UNs stride into our internal affairs, which obliges Poland to shut down baby hatches. It is a coincidence that, claiming they save lives, Kofta has quite [...]

The work on the report on the European Union’s policy in the field of digital freedom is now in progress. I will certainly come back to this subject more than once, but today let me focus on another document, prepared by the U.S. NGO Freedom House, which for several years has conducted a systematic study [...]

American politicians are trying to guess or predict, according to American doctrines, who may be Mitt Romney as president of the United States. It is not an easy task because the Republican candidate started his contacts with the world by hosting in his family house, in his youth, an Italian student. Then he visited Europe [...]

The funeral of ACTA is coming very soon. Yesterday for several hours we had a fierce plenary debate at the European Parliament. What struck me most was the bereavement of the project. Nobody said a good word about it. The followers of the agreement put on two masks – some lamented the massive counterfeiting of goods [...]

The Constitutional Court is to consider a complaint by Lech Gardocki, former president of the Supreme Court, who did not like the law on the family allotment gardens. Well, the rule of law complies or does not comply with a sense of justice. Let the courts do their duty, but on this occasion once more [...]

Imagine the situation of the early twentieth century or a little earlier. The streets in the cities start being filled with vehicles, roads between agglomerations are formed and on them appear first cars. Those who have a car enjoy freedom. It soon becomes clear that the basic rules on how to circulate are essential so [...]

Germany is recently popular in Poland. As a leader or a hegemon (delete as appropriate). The differences between these two countries are best visible on the example of ACTA. The German government has not signed the agreement, respecting the objections of the Minister of Justice, although people did not protest in the streets. The Polish [...]

The internet users from Poland did not agree to participate in the Prime Minister’s “show-off”. They demand that the Civic Platform take a political stance, which means that they want Poland to have a possibility to withdraw from the ACTA agreement. They do not want to be a “fig leaf” to decisions taken previously. Since [...]

The Polish government stubbornly insists on ACTA. The Prime Minister has already tasted strong words during the football war, smart drugs war, etc., and he wants to play in a similar style in the case of ACTA. Each day brings a new embarrassment. Today you can see a list composed of dozens of social organisations [...]
