Five German News Stories

 1.  Top WELT news item....the SPD-coalition gov't had promised that a 'faster' method of deporting 'problem' asylum seekers.....while statistics released yesterday show the exact opposite.  More delay built into the system,  than ever.

Trigger?  It's just going to be openly discussed by the AfD Party and attract more political attention (negative) toward the government.

2.  Some German government goal now established for 2024.....500,000 heat pumps to be installed.  

Most heating experts are grinning.....saying that there aren't enough technicians and man-hours....to reach that level.  

3.  Around three to four months ago...the Chancellor showed up at some E-truck company in Germany,  walking around the assembly area, and hyped their success.  Name of the company was B-ON.

Well....if you view business news from yesterday....the company is bankrupt.  

4.  Vonovia (the apartment rental company) had said over the past year.....they were going to construct around 60,000 new apartments in the future.  As of today, that plan has been tossed, due to the increasing construction costs.

5.  Some kind of attack on two lesbians in the neighborhood of Neukollin-Berlin.....has state police now investigating....from Monday evening.
