Phew. It's been a long way in the making, but tomorrow the Pirates' Party web site is going live. We'll know in a month if it achieves the necessary momentum.

So far, so good. There's been some interest before it went live. As I said, we'll know soon.

The target? Grab seats in Parliament and scare the sh*t out of the pollytishuns that keep ignoring what ordinary people think, instead listening to business interests basically saying "we won't provide more value, but we need more money anyway".

First target is to get 2,000 charter signatures by Feb 4. That'll be a good lithmus test.
