Pirate Party Tyrol ( PPT ) was a political party in the Austrian state of Tyrol .

history

The Pirate Party of Tyrol originally emerged as a regional organization of the Pirate Party of Austria . After internal conflicts in 2011, the Tyrolean Pirate Party was excluded in January 2012. Since then it has existed as an independent party.

In the municipal council elections in Innsbruck in 2012 , the party won a mandate with 3.8% of the votes and was the first Austrian pirate party to move into a municipal council.

However, after internal disputes, this mandate went to the Inn pirates, a spin-off from mandate Alexander Ofer and his deputy Heinrich Stemeseder, after they were replaced on the board of the PPT. The remaining PPT then approached the Pirate Party of Austria again .

In a further extraordinary general assembly on December 9, 2012, the election of the candidates for election to the Tyrolean state parliament took place. For the state elections on April 28 , the party ran in three districts and gained 0.38% of the vote nationwide. The 2013 National Council election took place under the auspices of the Pirate Party of Austria. On January 11th, 2019, the PPT dissolved.

Inn pirates

There was no longer any connection to the Inn pirates after they split off. As a result, the PPT had neither access to the mandate in the Innsbruck municipal council nor to party funding. While the PPT no longer ran for the municipal council and mayoral elections in Innsbruck in 2018 , Heinrich Stemeseder , who was now sitting on the municipal council with an ankle bracelet , failed to try to keep the Inn pirates' mandate. He was appointed as a mandate for the Inn pirate Alexander Ofer, who was sentenced to four and a half years in prison.

Program

Programmatically, the PPT oriented itself towards its party of origin.

International memberships

The Pirate Party Tyrol was an observing member of the Pirate Parties International , the international association of pirate parties .
