Iceland's Pirates head for power

from FT News in Focus

The rise of Iceland’s Pirates party is a striking example of the anti-establishment mood that has swept western countries since the financial crisis. Founded by a ragtag bunch of internet activists, the party is hoping for victory in Saturday’s parliamentary elections. Orla Ryan asks Richard Milne, the FT's Nordics correspondent, what they stand for. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
