A question of moral values?

I must say I don’t mind people going to bars, getting drunk and doing silly things like kissing and hugging one another. Not even when the people that are kissing each others are a close assistant of the prime minister and a political reporter in national television TV4. But a lot of people apparently do, strangely enough. I get particularly tiered from listen to the leader for the Christian Democratic Party Göran Hellström when he is complaining about lack of moral values in the leadership.

The Swedish princess Victoria recently said in an interview that she never feel relaxed anymore when she is out in public since everybody has a mobile phone with a camera nowadays. I would suggest that Ulrica Schenström gives that a thought and invites the reporters to her home instead, next time.

The problem is something different from moral values. Ulrica Schenström, as we now found out, is apparently in charge of national security. So far prime minister Fredrik Reinfeldt has not been able to tell if she removed her duties to somebody ells before she went out drinking. This suggests that she probably didn’t. Considering the amount of attacks from Fredrik Reinfeldt and his collegues on the former government for not handling the Tsunami-situation in a proper way one would think the new government would be more careful with those issues.

On the other hand: Lars Danielsson, assistant of the former prime minister Göran Persson, still can not tell what he was doing during the first day after the Tsunami. If there had been a new Tsunami this weekend we would at least have known afterwards about how Ulrica Schenströms spent her night, thanks to modern discrete mobile phones. I am not sure if that is something to be grateful of or not.
