Do other parties have this paper already or it is an administrative delay of its publishing?

Spanish government delayed every procedure and paper publishing needed for parties without deputies in the parliament.

PP-CAT created http://www.yoavalo.org , to raise awareness about this problem, and to pre-register to sign for your prefered party (we opened it to any democratic party respectful with human rights). Almost 50 parties contacted us. 4 nazi parties were not allowed, 5 were not able to run for elections and 5 contacted us after we closed admitance, everyone else was allowed.

We got between 30.000 & 40.000 volunteers in august! and moreover, it got widespread media coverage, so ppl could know about how dirty the establishment was tying to ban us from running for election. (nobody knew about this change in our lawz before this campaing).

If your case is simmilar, we can copy you the website skeleton.

If it isn't just a PP-BE problem, I'd suggest you to create a joint campaign, so you'll be always the nice guys promoting it, but you'll take some advantage of every other party talking about it in media and newspapers :)


Salut!nicolas boucher <nicolas.boucher73 at gmail.com> escribió: Dear Pirates,

Everybody knows Belgium and its famous beers. The country with three languages. The country who was at the beginning of Europe with the Netherlands and Luxemburg. The country that hosts festivals, Francorchamps or the « Concours Reine Elisabeth ». The country of the heart of modern European democracy.

The Pirate Party of this country, my country, needs your help : we want to take part in the provincial elections. Unfortunately we need one official paper for the signatures. Unfortunately they don't have this paper : they are not in time because they are afraid of us. And unfortunately it's the only paper we are allowed to use. But fortunately we are pirates !

We have to put pressure on the person in charge of that administration. That person is @Paul_Furlan on twitter. We could spam him but it would be too easy. I would prefer a funniest way of a demonstration of our movement: a hashtag ! That's why I propose #hellopaul It will show him that we are everywhere. It will show the world that the Pirates are the Pirates.

We are fighting for democracy. We are fighting for freedom. We are fighting to take part to the elections in Belgium. In less than 60 days we have to give hundreds of signatures on an official paper from the belgian administration. So Pirates from all around the world, use your fingers, use your keyboard, and use the #hellopaul

Let's be funny, let's be friends. I would like to imagine that #hellopaul in the newspapers, in the medias, on television. But I know they will not allow us. So let's do it together all around the world and let's put it as a big smile in front of all the politicians let's do it as the hashtag of the day.

And of course, your grandmother goes to toilet it's #hellopaul The trains stops it's #hellopaul The fish makes a bubble it's to say #hellopaul The water is water, the fire is fire. The #hellopaul is the #hellopaul

We are not anonymous. We are Legion. We are the pirates.

À l'abordaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaage.
