Tino Chrupalla compared Lars Klingbeil to the Sheriff of Nottingham instead of Robin Hood and suggested that while Klingbeil had stopped smoking, he apparently had not stopped consuming sugar.

He understood reforms to mean that the state would be held accountable and would first save on itself instead of placing a heavier burden on the citizens. #Politik #Reformen #Steuern (translated)
