Just Observations

 1.  Odds of nuke power plants coming back in Germany?

There may be chatter and maybe one-third of the public sees nothing wrong with them.  But it'd take a major shake-up where you have ten days over six months where you have no electrical power because of confusing priorities in the German grid.  At that point, the question will be....do you bring back coal-fired plants or nuke plants?

At the heart of the matter?  I think a lot of Germans look at the glory-period....1970s, 1980s, 1990s....and how you just had a 2-hour outage of electrical power every six months or so.  Things were cost-effective, stable and dependable.  

2.  These Meseberg meeting results for Scholz and the coalition?

Basically, Scholz wants everyone reading off the same script and hyped-up to sell the coalition 'brand'.  For the past 12 months, they've done  crappy job, and there's nothing much to indicate the meeting this week changed anything.

3.  Georgia and Moldovia declared 'safe' states by the German gov't?

Well...if you come from one of these two and ask for asylum....the Germans can now say 'NO'.  To be honest, I doubt if you had more than 500 a year come in from the two....asking for asylum in Germany.  Gov't even indicates from the bulk list of 2023 asylum seekers.....the two represent .1 percent of the total....from the two states.

4.  Chatter on rent 'brakes' across the country of Germany?

SPD chatter indicates some kind of federal 'law' or regulation.....to limit how much you can raise the rent in any one year.  The odd part of this discussion is that where you have the problem is in large metropolitan areas of the country, with minimal housing construction going on.

5.  Is the CDU Party (right-of-center) in trouble with increasing numbers of the public wanting a further right agenda?

There is a public discussion going on and some journalists believe this story.  

I would be more likely to believe that the pendulum has swung a bit far to the left in the past decade, and this is a public reaction wanting a counter-balance, and  being just plain right-of-center....is not enough.  This brings up that Merkel vision of leading the CDU to center-center politics, and leaving the more conservative voters without any serious attention (giving the AfD Party opportunities).
