Today we vote in Sweden. As you might know there has been a bit of a debate of file sharing over here. There was a big police raid on piratebay, which took them offline for a few days before they resurfaced.

Anyway, now the minister of justice Thomas Bodström appears on their front page wearing a piratebay sweater... Interesting thing is that the photo is probably not fake.

Just a funny parenthesis in the daily media buzz...

The alliansen (alliance) won in Sweden, our fat friend Persson is no more, or atleast not leading the country anymore.

Lets see if the new guys can turn it around. :P


Things are a bit upside down, the "liberal" folkpartiet want to infringe on civil liberties to allow further police surveilance. The conservative/liberal moderaterna wants to increase the social benefits. The farmers party used alot of PR money and are now saying sensible things. The christian party wants to spend extra money to allow (keep?) women at home with kids, no real suprise there though. The socialist party dropped majorly to all other parties but the ex-communist party (uhu, we have one of those), and the enviromental party went forward.

Well that is about it, a biased and blue report from Sweden. Go alliance!
