Surely that law couldn't be legal, imagine if the AfD for a majority in that region, would the parliament just not do anything until their next elections because they couldn't repeal it?

germany is literally going back to the weimar republic

voing ovr and over again until something passes

it doesn't actually make any sense, because you'd have to either remove the representative aspect of parliament or you'd have to allow members to change their vote based on who else voted

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

Hopefully that story goes viral in Germany, it could help them get more votes than they otherwise would

quite the opposite

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

I thought vee could read german

maybe
but i can do it better

So the SPD want a single party state not a democracy @Propagandastyl3

I swear Germany is like Groundhog day

They want democracy, as long as they don't disagree with you too much

The SPD are going to have a nasty shock.

I don't think Germans want to live in East Germany all over again. @TheRandomist

No, hopefully there'll be a backlash against the SPD for this, and other parties will realise that this could be extended to them in future and condemn them for it, no matter where they are on the spectrum

August '21 for their next parliamentary elections though so this will probably be forgotten by then

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

They're centre left like Labour claim to be aren't they?

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

Who's likely to get their votes as they fall away? Is it likely that there won't be the possibility of a CRight-CLeft coalition in the next elections that would need Merkel/her successor to work with further right parties?

AfD and Greens

Greens are a much bigger force in Germany that the UK right?

Merkels party lost some votes too, but not as much

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

So there's a reasonable chance of CDU-Green government after the next elections or are they too different?

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

That doesn't sound good for Germany if they end up running the whole country

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)

So other than environmentally a CDU Green government may be better than what's currently there?
