Söder’s list of questions to Aiwanger: Less trust is hardly possible

Bavaria’s Prime Minister Söder is sticking to his vice. But Aiwanger is supposed to answer a list of questions about the anti-Semitic leaflet. CSU and Free Voters do not work together, but against each other.

Greetings from the land of summonses and catalogs of questions. The times when the Bavarian coalition was the counter-model to Berlin’s traffic light chaos are over. There is a coalition crisis in Bavaria. CSU and Free Voters no longer work together, but against each other.

The election campaign has now really started – but not thanks to the opposition. But thanks to the coalition partners CSU and Free Voters: they have been stalking each other for years, since the anti-heating demo in Erding, where Hubert Aiwanger AfD sound struck and Markus Söder was booed, they have been harping – and now, in the flyer -Affair, fight each other.

In a slight modification of a sentence by Gerhart Polt, the following applies to the Bavarian coalition: We don’t need an opposition, we campaign alone.

Without trust there is no coalition

A coalition partner who tackles the other with a catalog of questions – something like this was previously only known from traffic lights. At the time, the FDP and the Greens were talking about the draft heating law, about one thing. Now the Bavarian prime minister is sending his deputy a list of questions – and it’s about integrity and personal credibility. There really isn’t any less trust. And without trust there is no coalition.

Well, Markus Söder should actually let this coalition burst now. In order to meet its own demands for stability and the ability to act. But Söder has tied himself too tightly to the free voters.

That is the price of Söder’s tough anti-Green course: Yes, this course is damaging to the Bavarian Greens. But he brings nothing to the CSU.
