And thus surpasses two of the parties that is sitting in opposition in the parliament today (Miljöpartiet and Vänstern (the “socialists” (commies)).

Earlier today (17:33) we only had 10600 members but that changed fast and we’re currently running at about 1 new member every minute

The increase in members is probably related to the IPRED1-directive being voted through parliament today so fast you almost missed it, and of course the Spectrial might have something to do with it as well.

Wonderful news anyways
