Why German politics just became fun

[threemonkeys]

My German language skills are pretty non-existent but according to this report the German Pirate Party has entered the state parliament of the city-state of Berlin with nearly 9% of the votes, counting for 15 of the total 149 seats. These numbers still subject to some fluctuation of course as all the votes aren't in yet.

Local politicians take note - don't piss off the geek vote or you may find them holding the balance of power.
