Pirate Party Australia is a political party in Australia that has traditionally represented civil liberty issues, but has also expanded into more traditional areas of policy. It is a Pirate Party which is based on the Pirate Party of Sweden, and has continued to develop a comprehensive policy platform since its formation based on the Pirate ethos. ==History== The Pirate Party was founded in 2008 by Rodney Serkowski with the launch of a website and a wiki, and a request for contributions. In 2009, the first National Council of the Party was elected. Pirate Party Australia was formally registered as a political party by the Australian Electoral Commission on 17 January 2013.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://aec.gov.au/Parties_and_Representatives/Party_Registration/Registration_Decisions/2013/4857.htm )〕 In late 2009, the party announced its intention to contest the 2010 federal election and recruited the 500 members necessary for registration. The party was expected to mainly compete with the Australian Greens and the Australian Sex Party. By 2009, it is understood that the party had over 1100 'preliminary members', members who had not completed the necessary paperwork to be considered a member for registration purposes but listed as an interested person. The party sent a call-out for leadership positions, with leadership elections held on 7 October. David Crafti was elected the party's first president. Rodney Serkowski, the founder of the party, took over the position of president in late July 2010, at the party's National Congress, to be followed by David Campbell for the following 2 years. At the National Congress in July 2013, Simon Frew took on the position of president. At the National Congress in July 2014, Brendan Molloy took on the position of president. Simon Frew is the current president, elected at the 2015 National Congress. Due to registration requirements, the party was not able to contest the 2010 federal election 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pirateparty.org.au/moving-forward )〕 but it registered in January 2013, enabling it to contest the 2013 federal election.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://pirateparty.org.au/2013/01/21/pirate-party-australia-successfully-registers-for-federal-elections/ )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pirate Party Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
