Well this is a turn of events. It looks like th idea Wikleaks tranparancy may really be entering main stream politics...
'Kaye says that in the upcoming election, the party’s focus will be on freedom of speech and transparency, following the WL affair. He said: ‘We are the only party which has had the courage to openly support WL, and we will continue to fight for the freedom of speech..'
good luck to him

Thing is, as nice as the thought of a pro-transparency government is.... well, it's the pirate party. Do they even have candidates in enough counties for form a majority?
