Tracking changes in Czech political parties:

Inspired by @simonw's git scraping article and this tweet. I noticed there is a registry of all political parties and movements in the Czech Republic, and that for journalists it's sometimes useful to monitor it for changes. Hence I decided to scrape the registry and have it as a git scraping pet project.

The scraper uses my favorite Scrapy framework. So far I scrape only a few fields. If you want to build on top of the data and you're missing something, let me know in issues. The data is sorted by registration date, so that the newest parties and movements are at the top of the file.

I'm curious what changes I'm about to see!
