Spain's Podemos internet based party and the protest vote in European parliamentary elections of 2014
05/29/2014
The left oriented Podemos internet based party won 8% of the vote in Spain's European parliamentary elections of 2014. The Socialist party and the Partido Popular when combined failed to win over 50% of the vote in the Spanish election reflecting the deep discontent with unemployment at about 26% and only slight job gains. In France Hollande's Socialist party did worse with only 13% of the vote in EU parliamentary elections. In Britain Cameron's Conservatives came in third behind the Independence party and Labor party. Only in Germany, Netherlands and Italy did the ruling parties do well.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
