昨日、EU選挙がEU諸国にて行われた。

Since this election isn't domestic one, it appears to be a reality that many Swedish people have no interest in this election.
この選挙は国内選挙では無いため、実は多くのスウェーデン国民の関心は低い。
However my husband went to elect.
しかしながらどうしたわけか、夫は選挙に行きました。
The members of major political parties such as "Folkpartiet Liberalerna" and "Sveriges Socialdemokratiska Arbetareparti" stood in the entrance.
「自由党」「スウェーデン社会民主労働党」といった巨大政党の党員が、入り口に立っていましたよ。
My particular interest was one party.
そうそう、興味深い政党がありました。
Piratpartiet
パイレーツ党

What? Pirate?
We have a tendency to imagine "Pirates of the Caribbean" etc...
No, no...
This party treats about pirated edition.
Yes, there is as campaign slogan...
So they appeals for abolishing intellectual property right only.
えっ、何?パイレーツ(海賊)?
ついつい、「カリブの海賊」などをイメージしてしまうんですが、これが違うんですよ・・・。
そうなんです、この政党が扱っているのは、海賊版について・・・。知的財産権の撤廃を公約として訴えております。

Their opinion is jolly good from the standpoint of consumer we may not be in favor of this opinion but from the standpoint of right owners.
彼らの考えは、利用者の立場に立てば実に素晴らしいものですが、逆に権利を所有している人達からは、好まれるものではないですね。

Heard about this election in the news. Norway is outside EU so wi did not participate. But a Norwegian lady, Eva Joly, did come in for a French party.
Hi Elsa,
Thank you for your comment.
Oh, your country haven't belonged to EU?
I haven't known about the fact.
The advantages lie side-by-side with disadvantages.
If Norway would belong to EU, Norwegian people would share neighboring countries' problems.
Also, I haven't known about Eva Joly.
