Cor! - UK Pirate Party's Smart Move

,----[ Quote ]
| What's interesting is how tightly focussed the Pirate Party is. I think
| that's wise: otherwise it would just become another Raving Monster Loony
| Party. By restricting its message to an area that it understands, and which
| is crying out for reform, I'm sure it will benefit in the long run. It will
| also, usefully, force the other parties to frame their own responses in this
| domain.

| The UK Pirate Party has been officially registered at the Electoral
| Commission and is hoping to follow in the footsteps of its successful
| counterpart in Sweden. With all the recent controversy surrounding
| anti-piracy legislation and lawyers going after alleged file-sharers, the
| party has become necessity.
