for your ready reference I reproduce first paragraph from there:


World Parliament >>>>>>

We believe a world parliament would bring regulation of multi-national companies back to elected representatives, in an open public forum. This would provide a simpler uniform set of laws for corporations to follow worldwide and ensure they provide healthcare, training, safe working conditions and fair salaries to their employees. We would prefer to see 60,000 members of the world parliament (MWPs), rather than the 1000 proposed on http://w-g.jp/wp/. The average MP's constituency in the UK has a population of 100,000 people. This allows personal contact between the MP and his constituents, and prevents success in elections relying too heavily on a candidate's media image. For 1000 MWPs to each represent 6 million people would unhealthily inflate an MWP's ego & unfairly ration an MWP's personal contact with constituents and would punish candidates who are genuine, hard-working & likeable people but unskillful with the media or incorruptible by its owners. In negotiating the creation of a world parliament, influential constituencies could bargain for greater voting power, though the average would be 1 vote. The World party is developing a computer system that 60,000 MWPs each representing 100,000 people could use on a peer to peer network of laptop computers to securely but openly debate and reach decisions on world government policy, without requiring any MWPs to leave their constituencies. "World" seeks to encourage many people to consider themselves world citizens and work or donate towards the party objective of a worldwide participatory democracy. We registered with the UK Electoral Commission on May 11th 2001. This allows us under UK electoral law, to put forward candidates to stand in general and local elections, everywhere in the UK. Ultimately we aim to pass a law in each country that legitimates a world parliament and declares its decisions to be binding. Providing the concept of world parliament gains majority support, this will have credibility.
