Laurent sez, "The Switzerland's Piraten Partei (Pirate Party, of course) will be loaded July the 12th in Zurich.
There is also a Facebook group : Piratenpartei Schweiz – Parti Pirate Suisse – Partito Pirata Svizzero
Mondial."
The original Swedish Pirate Party won a seat in the recent EU election (two seats, once the Treaty of Lisbon is ratified), the German PP got 1% of the popular vote, and there are affiliate parties all over the world now. All this in just a few years — I wonder how far the Green Party got in its first three years?
