Vote Pirate Party in the euro elections? : Thu May 22, 2014 9:51 am  

Amid all the corporate media cajoling of people to vote UKIP through a completely unprecedented and unbalanced media campaign, other parties standing in the elections have gone completely unnoticed. The Greens for example who have a sitting MP and a number of Euro MP's have been given little attention compared to UKIP. Similarly The Pirate Party have received no attention whatsoever. I suspect the name of the Pirate Party may make people think they are a bit of a joke, somewhat akin to the Monster Raving loony party, however they are a legitimate force with real policies and sitting euro Mp's Check out their policies below, they may surprise you for their common sense. https://www.pirateparty.org.uk/policy

They're not a patch on UKIP. They hardly have a leg to stand on. They'll be sick as a parrot. Personally I couldn't give a hook. Jolly Roger and out.

I know it's a bit late now but on polling day a friend on facebook said whatever you do, don't vote for them. I haven't read their full manefesto because I can't really be bothered and polling day has passed but I do agree that we as citizens are under far too much surveillance and I hate the old attitude of 'If you've got nothing to hide then you've got nothing to worry about'.
