The Pirate Party is a new political party fighting for freedom and fairness in the digital age.

We want to reform copyright and patent laws to make them fairer, and to serve their purpose to society, not infringe upon our liberty and stifle creativity, innovation and culture.

We want to safeguard essential liberties like privacy and free speech, and oppose all form of censorship.

We recognise the important role of the internet in 21st century life, and want to keep it free, open and accessible too all.

We believe government must be more transparent and accountable at all levels, and that political engagement is not just for election season.
