Peter Borbe wrote that Söder explicitly opposed collaboration with the AfD during "Miosga." In the other 15 federal states, however, the CDU has no Free Voters with whom they could comfortably form majorities. If they want to avoid the AfD, according to Borbe, only left-wing parties remain there. #Politik #CDU #AfD (translated)

Frederik Schindler reported exclusively at WELT that the newly elected Left Party MP in Berlin, Martha Kleedörfer, opposed the anti-Semitism declaration from the Left Party, SPD, and Greens in an internal chat group of the Berlin Left Party. She criticized that the party had submitted to the declaration and accused the text from the three state leaders of enabling five more years of repression. In her view, the demand for a one-state solution is legitimate and not a reason to exclude her from the faction. https://t.co/Wndkie4G9W #BerlinerLinkspartei #Antisemitismus #Politik (translated)

Lexa wrote that European gas prices have risen from around 28 euros per MWh in January to almost 74 euros today, an increase of 160 percent in nine months. With the upcoming winter in mind, she described the EU's energy system as vulnerable. As a cause, Lexa cited Brussels' energy policy: The accelerated phase-out of nuclear power and fossil fuels, as well as sanctions against cheap Russian gas, have, in her opinion, made Europe more dependent on expensive LNG and weather-dependent renewable energies. She stated that EU leadership has subordinated supply security to the Green Deal. According to Lexa, higher heating costs, looming energy poverty, and declining competitiveness are the consequences for citizens and industry. #Energiekrise #EU #Gaspreise (translated)
