Will the UK Pirate Party have its voice heard?  In todays world of hightened interest in politics and change, nothing would be surprising.

It seems that the recent scandles, resignations and voter appathy have rekindled an interest in politics, or maybe simply the realization that the small voice can be heard, not only in the World Wide Web but in the mainstream press.

The UK Pirate Party (presumably hoping to cash in on some of the fame of its Swedish namesake) is looking for people, most notably a party leader.

Will the Pirate Party UK echo the sucesses of its Swedish counterpart?  Time will tell, however in this day where voters seem desperate for change and any change, who knows what the future will hold?
