Any insights on the Pirate Party in Berlin that just won won 9% of the vote in Berlin state elections? Der Spiegel story quotes the chair as wanting to uphold liberal values which the paper thinks will not please the Free Democrats, who lost all their seat. Are they just going to be an FDP 2.0, or something more progressive?

I've just skimmed their election programme, so there might be other more relevant stuff there, but it calls for basic income, fair competition and apparently opposes privatisation to some extent.
