Another new policital party has been registered in the Netherlands. This time not with a focus on pedophiles, Pim Fortuyn followers, animals or any other minorty. It has a vision different from the usual voting-representatives-policymaking-system. The Internet Partij Nederland (IPNL) will be the most democratic party of the nation. Through its website the voters are able to give their opinions and these will be followed. On important topics there will be online discussions, finalized with a poll. The result of these polls will be the basis for the party's program for the elections.
"No one can claim that the representatives of IPNL are just there for the benefit of their own ideals, they don't stand for anything but the masses' opinion", so says Arno Haye, director and founder of IPNL. He aims for 10 Chamber seats and about a million registered partisans. "In four years we will be the largest party."

What do we think? Indeed a new way of citizen centralized policts or too many obstacles to make it into a succes?
