The debate on the matter is too exhausting for many. The SPD politician and former state minister Michael Roth strikes a thoughtful and critical note on the news service X: "The debate on the matter is too exhausting for many. However, we must and can criticize politicians, including Bärbel Bas. But please, based on the issue. A politician can also fall ill, grieve, take time, but should not face mockery and hate.

I have my doubts that this will make politics better." #BärbelBas #Rücktritt #SPD (translated)

Oliver Gorus described Ulrich Siegmund as an exceptionally talented populist. BMW had given him a good opportunity, which Siegmund surely utilized, wrote Gorus.
