p2pnet.net News:- Sweden's Pirate Party, "not only failed to score the 4 percent required for a seat in Sweden's Parliament, but appears to have missed the 1 percent that would have afforded the party state assistance with printing ballots and funding staff in the next election," says Wired News.

The Pirate Party's single-issue platform includes a five-year limit to commercial copyright, the abolition of patents and stronger privacy protections online.

Now, "Falkvinge says the party plans to marshal on," says Wired has Falkvinge statingg, "Morale in the group is good and we are learning from this experience, as we are taking new aims for the European Union election in 2009 and the next Swedish election in 2010."

That leaves the Pirate Parties in the rest of the world .....
