Thomas Gaul August 17, 2018 August 17, 2018

Cemetery Mediterranean Sea? What will become of the sea of the Europeans? Holiday area number 1 and on the doorstep of a rich Europe and the place of most legends and myths, all of which have to do with migration, from Homer’s Odysseus to the history of the Argo or thousands of other traditions. Now that it is still and increasingly the place of migration and movement, an unprecedented death has begun in these waters since 2015. People fleeing countries where you and your people are killed by weapons sold to these countries from our rich Europe are dying in masses and in front of everyone in this sea of …

Letter from the Pirate Party of Slovenia – Pirate conference and upcoming election

Raymond Johansen April 15, 2018 April 15, 2018

Hello fellow Pirates! Slovenia is holding parliamentary elections on the 27th of May or 3rd of June! There will be a referendum about the construction of a railroad line (don’t ask) just before that – on May 13th. The Pirates will naturally be running on this election. We’re poling at 3.5% (the threshold for entering the parliament is 4%) and our polling agent tells us that our biggest problem is that we have a lot of support, they’re just too passive to vote. The state of PPSI We’ve been active for 8 years. We’ve attended the 2014 EU elections (2.3%), the 2014 National elections (1.36% – we got ~80k EUR …
