1. Coalition talks now underway about a very sensitive topic.....electrical prices for industry in Germany. They want to offer 'cheap' (what they see) prices to encourage industry growth.
The only pot of money that exists where they could take and feed into this idea? Well...it was money designed for 'everyone' (meaning the general public). If they set their hands on it....one of these stupid promises they made two years ago....will dissolve away and be another reason why no believes their 'brand' or political agenda.
Odd position in be in.....some companies are obviously looking at moving production out of Germany, because it makes financial sense.
2. Some odd car explosion in Mannheim yesterday. I reviewed the pictures....everything in the car was blown out....guy was sitting in the vehicle at the time. Injured but will apparently survive. Fire department still reviewing what caused this.
You can see the picture here. Pretty bizarre. Vehicle totaled out....insurance company guy will be spending some time here to figure out 'blame'.
3. Berlin marathon is supposed to happen this weekend....big deal for the city. Last Generation activists are saying they will hinder/halt the race.
4. More border control at Poland and Czech? German Interior Minister says she'll find the manpower and heavily increase checks to prevent people from migrating into German.
Where she'll get this manpower? Unknown....probably won't be the German Army.
5. Interesting WELT article over Bavarian politics this AM (Sat). Suggestion that the Free Voter Party 'boss' (Aiwanger) is gaining popularity with the public.....much more than the top party (CSU) and their 'boss' (Soder). FW Party is conveying things that concern the typical Bavarian, and a more conservative 'slant' on politics.
Before all this scandal 'crap' that the newspapers tried to suggest on Aiwanger....they were figured to take around 10-to-12 percent of the state vote. Presently? I'd say they took votes from a number of parties, and are now 17-percent. Even in Hessen (also having a state election), I would suggest that the FW Party has gained a couple of points.
