German Christian Democrats are eaten by internal conflicts. Controversial survey


Serial members of the CDU are furious at the party authorities, especially because of gigantic debt packages agreed after elections, which were not mentioned before. And local structures in the capital, led by the confident mayor of Berlin Kaia Wegner, have bans. The Berlin Christian Democrats are unceremoniously conduct their own, large -scale surveywhile SPD members vote in a referendum over the coalition agreement throughout the country.
Berliners want to know how almost 13,000 CDU members in the capital assess the result of coalition talks. For this purpose, all Berlin Christian Democrats stayed asked to complete the online questionnairewhich contains their opinion on the debt package, the black and red coalition in general, the tightening of migration policy (“Do you think that these funds are the right solution?”) and changes in citizens' income.
Relations between Friedrich Merz, the leader of the CDU, and Kaem Wegner are considered tense. To the irritation of the leader The vegner has repeatedly called loudly to relieve the debt braketo give trade union countries a larger field of maneuver. However, until recently, Merz did not want to have anything to do with it.
When asked by “Bild” about the Dirk Reitze survey, the director of the CDU in Berlin, he seems not to be concerned. – Our survey is completely different than the decision of SPD members. We ask our members about their assessment of 12 different topics in the coalition agreement – he assures.
Was the survey coordinated with the party's federal authorities? According to Reitzy, it doesn't matter because “national associations are autonomous”. In addition, the Berlin CDU asks its members about current issues three to four times a year in over 10 years. According to the findings of “Bild”, the originator of this format was Kai Wegner. The survey ends on Holy Thursday – just before Easter.
Philipp Amthor, a federal representative of the CDU, so far he has not answered the question of “Bild”.
