Miss Eve criticized BMW over reports that the car manufacturer withdrew its leasing offer for the new President of the Saxony-Anhalt Parliament on the day of his election. If this is true, the question arises as to whether BMW makes business decisions dependent on the party affiliation of an officeholder, she wrote. She argued that for a company car funded by public means, efficiency and the requirements of the office should count. At the same time, she accused BMW of possibly applying political criteria in selecting customers and warned that these could choose other manufacturers. Miss Eve wrote that she drives a BMW 430i M Sport Coupe, but her leasing contract will soon expire. She could then choose another brand. In the event that BMW excludes customers because of their political views, she noted there are 60.5 million eligible voters in Germany, 30.5 percent potential AfD voters, and 18.5 million disgruntled customers. #BMW #Automobilindustrie #Kundenservice (translated)

The Bonn orchestra is insolvent. The popular concert series Vienna Classics is completely canceled. Domino effects! A country in decline. Economically and culturally. The performance operation ends: The association of the Classical Philharmonic Bonn has filed for insolvency. The entire season 2026/27 has been canceled, and thus five planned concerts in the Bielefeld Oetkerhalle are also canceled. Financing collapses: About 60 musicians are affected by the discontinuation of concert operations. Reasons cited include rising costs for travel, accommodation, venues, and organization, as well as the loss of essential financial support. The insolvency shows how significantly rising costs and lack of funding can economically pressure even established cultural offerings. @HotManufaktur thank you very much for this important note!
