SPD: Bills must not pass with AfD-Votes

Düsseldorf The SPD in the Landtag [state parliament] of North Rhine-Westphalia has demanded a ban on bills, if those only get a majority of votes with help of the AfD. The SPD issued a corresponding Eilantrag ["express motion"] at the Düsseldorf Landtag on monday.

With this motion the Landtag is supposed to plead itself to "not allowing any teamwork or collaboration in any way, shape or form between democrats and the AfD in the Landtag of North Rhine-Westphalia, present and future". This includes, on the one hand, the election of the minister president [head of state gov]. On the other hand, "there must not be bills passed in this Landtag, that only got a majority of votes with help from the AfD."

"Quick and clear commitment"

Regarding the heated mood in country, there needs to be a quick and clear commitment of the Landtag, says the SPD in justification of the motion. "The AfD must not be a wildcard [thats how i translated a word literally meaning "power option"] for any democratic party and faction in North Rhine-Westphalia in any form. This is at the root of the democratic self-conception. [or self-image ?]

There will not be a vote on the motion during this weeks session. The president has, in consultation with the executive committee, not allowed any express motions for this week.", a speaker of the Landtag told the JUNGE FREIHEIT.

It is unclear how the demands of the SPD are compatible with the state constitution, which guarantees a free mandate to any house representative. The state constitution says, regarding this: "Representatives [members of the house] vote in accordance with their own free conviction, only taking the well of the people into consideration. They are not bound to orders."

@TheRandomist no, it was dismissed immediatly. but the fact that they even tried is the real scandal in my book

quite the opposite

i dont watch tv so i dunno what the smear merchants over there talk about all day

maybe
but i can do it better

Merkel has pretty much cucked all the "want" out of the SPD. now they just bend over whenever Merkel needs them to. I voted for them when i was 18, for the first and last time

they dropped from like 35% to 17% in 15 years. And the sad part is: they dont know why. just like Labour

dont have exact numbers but its somewhere around those 2

yes but they have a history of abandoning all their principles for those sweet sweet ministry positions

thats how Merkel cucked them

they were NOT the party to demand a minimum wage first in germany, that was actually the "Die Linke", a party founded by former SPD members who had enough of this bullshit

AfD and Greens

Merkels party lost some votes too, but not as much

yes, in one of our largest state they actually run the government

we already had a SPD-Green gov in 1998-2002

they invaded jugoslawia, those peaceful SJWs...

it was acutally a deal they made with Bill Clinton: he sent some of his campaigners over to germany to help get SPD-Green elected, in return, they helped him to invade jugoslawia

CDU-Green coalition is currently running Baden Württemberg, the state i mentioned

Greens have 47 seats, CDU has 43 out of 143 total

the green party leader of Baden Württemberg is actually more conservative than Merkel in most ways lol

which doesnt mean much, every single party in germany is pretty much center-left except for AfD and FDP (neo-libs)

AfD is pretty much pre-Merkel CDU mixed in with some Nazis

@TheRandomist i m 33 y o and i havent actually witnessed a single "conservative" government in my country in my entire life. i honestly dont know. what i do know is that the SOCIAL DEMOCRATS lowered taxes for the rich (more than the cons did) and cut back massively on social security, unemployment benefits specifically

german politics is a clown world
conservative parties do leftist shit
leftist parties say "fuck the poor"
and neo-libs say "why doesnt everybody own a hotel is so EZ?"

needless to say i m politicly homeless...and every day i get more reasons to vote AfD...and i am center-left ffs

here is a funny thing that happend in Baden Württemberg recently:
the motion asked "should perfectly integrated refugees/migrants, who found a job, be deported?"
Voted YES: Greens (!), CDU and AfD
NO: SPD and FDP

ironic story: my cousin moved from cologne, germany to rural sweden to get away from all the cultural enrichment
