Berlin SPD veteran: Settlement with Müller’s capital city policy | Regional
Berlin – ER is a veteran of the SPD: As campaign manager (1987-89) he helped red-green victory in Berlin for the first time, then he was building senator for seven years. Wolfgang Nagel (77) also supported Michael Müller (56), who is still in power – now he’s breaking with him.
The hard billing via email is available to BILD. Nagel’s scathing criticism:
►ELECTION CHAOS. “It was just the icing on the cake for years of general administrative failure such as the non-functioning of the citizens’ offices or the lack of digitization of the offices in Berlin. Of course, the governing mayor in particular bears overall responsibility for departmental responsibilities. “
►FAILURE. “The main goals of the red-red-green coalition have not been achieved: The housing and rent policy ultimately failed completely, the goals were not achieved either quantitatively or qualitatively. People with an average income have long been unable to find a home. The rent cap was a political disaster, broader, better legal knowledge was pulled through, merely out of consideration for the two coalition partners. And the referendum was also so successful because the Senate policy in the housing and rent field was unable to counter it and ultimately left the Berliners alone. “
►RED-RED-GREEN. “At no point has this coalition been used as a common political project; they did not indulge each other, were constantly jealous of each other, among other things because prominent Senate representatives on site have repeatedly torpedoed various urban development projects. It is therefore right that Franziska Giffey is now campaigning for other coalition options. “
►SPD ELECTION RESULTS. “You take no responsibility for the worst election result of the Berlin SPD, on the contrary: You are obviously blaming our top candidate for it. How would we have done if she hadn’t been OUR candidate, as your personal successes in her constituency in Rudow showed that she is the right one for Berlin? Your references to the fact that the aggregate election results of the SPD, Greens and Left together could still achieve a stately majority are not really convincing either. Because their voters chose ‘their’ party for different reasons, but not a coalition from the outset. “
►SUCCESSOR FRANZISKA GIFFEY. “If you don’t dare to take responsibility for the past yourself, then please stop immediately, the death of Franziska Giffey and the country’s executive board in order to torpedo another coalition. Or do you want to hand over the ‘Söder’ of the Berlin SPD, as you make life difficult for our top candidate? ”
