the end of the people’s party is so summoned often deferred that you can easily miss out of pure Boredom the Moment it happens. The SPD is close to the point of dangerous. But also the CDU and the CSU have manoeuvred themselves into a Situation in which their binding power is waning.
mired for too long in a fruitless dispute over refugee policy, but gave them to a Central Moment of the price, which accounts for people’s parties: the claim to find yourself out of difficult conflict to the doctrine of the mean. Who, instead, is behaving like particular parties, is treated by the voters.
The CSU and the new CDU-Chairman, Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer promised at the Winter conference in Seeon a new spirit of community.
