Overview over the PP NDS convention August 31, 2012 · by Justus Römeth · in Pirate Party News After the successes the German pirates had in the state elections in Berlin, Saarland, Schleswig-Holstein and North-Rhine-Westfalia, it has become a bit quieter, resulting in them dropping back to 6% in recent election polls. A lot hinges therefore on the Pirate Party of Lower Saxony, which will ring in the 2013 election year on January 20th. Later in 2013 we will have elections in Bavaria and for the German Bundestag, the national parliament. A success in Lower Saxony (last polls: 7%) would help tremendously to make 2013 an overall success. On the …

The CETA IPR-Chapter Controversy | PirateTimes

The CETA IPR-Chapter Controversy August 29, 2012 · by Paul Wardenga · in Pirate Topic When discussing the aftermath of ACTA, another acronym tends to pop up: CETA. CETA stands for ‘Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement’ and it is a bilateral international contract, in the making since 2008, between Canada and the European Union. These types of bilateral agreements, to foster trade and economic ties between the EU and other countries, are a rather typical thing in EU foreign relations. It is also not unprecedented that these trade agreements contain provisions for issues not directly related to their primary goals of reciprocally increasing economic benefits through free trade.

General elections in the Netherlands August 24, 2012 · by Anouk Neeteson · in Election You may have missed it, but Holland is slowly but surely being gripped by election fever as election night creeps closer.

The Dutch ‘Piratenpartij’ recently entered the political arena in a multi-party system, meaning it is difficult to get noticed. A recent poll still puts them at 2/150 seats at the house of representatives. With another three weeks before elections take place to get …

With two thirds of their time left, the future reports from the board will hopefully indicate further improvements and progress made. The current Board was elected April 15th 2012 at the PPI Conference in Prague. The …
