Raphaël Glucksmann was elected as the Socialist candidate for the 2027 presidential election, but he faces the challenge of surpassing the popular left-wing populist Jean-Luc Mélenchon and needs the support of his party as well as the Greens to succeed in the campaign. #Frankreich #Glucksmann #Präsidentschaftswahl (translated)

Waldemar Hartmann drew a critical balance of the day and referred to poll figures of 13 percent for the SPD, 14 percent for the CDU, and 4 percent for the CSU. He wrote that the SPD was dragging the Union along and accused its coalition partner of inhumane treatment of Labor Minister Bas after her resignation. Friedrich Merz had to respond and tried to present the results of a two-day retreat of the CDU's top committees as a plan for better times. However, Hartmann referred to these as reheated old ideas. In Schwerin, a woman was working against the AfD on a red-red-green government, which she wanted to lead as Chancellor after the next federal election, he wrote. The CDU remains committed to the "firewall," while Markus Söder wants to expel CDU members who voted with the AfD from the party. Karin Prien thinks the CDU is too conservative, Hartmann added. He saw bleak prospects for the party and wrote that the CDU had once again failed to recognize the signs of the times at the Adenauer House. #Politik #CDU #SPD (translated)

Alexander Moehnle criticized that, in his opinion, the media use the term "child marriages" to downplay child abuse and sexual exploitation of children.

The user sparbuchfeinde wrote that the disputes over Bärbel Bas's resignation showed that the coalition was at an end and that the Union and SPD no longer trusted each other. He accused the parties of even politically instrumentalizing deceased stepchildren in the process. The SPD saw its natural coalition partners in the Greens and the Left, while in his view the Union had merely been a useful, naïve partner that had helped socialists to ministerial positions. He wrote that as soon as the Union could be replaced, it would be succeeded by leftist parties. #Politik #Koalition #Rücktritt (translated)

Martin Rothweiler, a member of the state parliament, wrote that the AfD in Baden-Württemberg had offered a conservative coalition to the CDU, while the CDU had voluntarily chosen to collaborate with the Greens as a junior partner. The CDU also voted against a proposal to reactivate nuclear power and continues to provide state funding for leftist projects, the cancellation of which the AfD had demanded. Rothweiler consequently described the CDU as a leftist party. He stated that it was time for the AfD to overtake the CDU in Baden-Württemberg as well and asked whether readers would help with this. #AfD #BadenWürttemberg #Politik (translated)

Dr. Bernd Baumann wrote that a political confrontation between two blocks is imminent. The SPD is moving towards collaboration with the Greens and forces he described as Islamist-left through its Berlin regional association. He interpreted this as a strategic withdrawal of the SPD from the Merz coalition and as the beginning of the next federal election campaign, which is oriented towards the successful camp election campaign of Schwesig. On the other hand, according to Baumann, the AfD is uniting citizens who demand an end to left-wing policies. The Union is being squeezed in between: it showcases its themes only to then negotiate again with left-wing parties. In this conflict, such a party is no longer needed, he wrote. #Politik #Bundestagswahl #SPD (translated)
