REYKJAVIK, Oct 27, (APP/AFP) – Iceland’s anti-establishment Pirate Party is set to shake up the political landscape in Saturday’s parliament election, with voters on course to punish a government tainted by the Panama Papers. Iceland called the snap vote in August after the global tax evasion scandal ensnared several senior politicians and claimed the scalp of the prime minister. The revelations rocked the North Atlantic island nation, reigniting the popular anger last seen during the 2008 financial crisis that wrecked Iceland’s banking system and led to a severe economic depression.
