Guido Heuer, former parliamentary group leader of the CDU in Saxony-Anhalt, openly opposes the AfD plan of his own faction and announces that he will remain in the plenary hall during the prime ministerial election in December, which could lead to an internal conflict and possibly a split within the already divided CDU. (translated)

The author referred to the CDU in Saxony-Anhalt as "securely anti-democratic" and wrote that it had a problem with the part of democracy that cannot be predetermined in a faction meeting after the electoral success of the AfD. He called the CDU's solution revealing and began to explain that the secrecy of the ballot is not touched in the plenary hall, but...; the contribution ended at this point. #Demokratie #Wahlrecht #CDU #DE (translated)

2026 is not over yet - and this year is marked by the accumulation of crises. At the start of the budget discussions, Finance Minister Roland Lescure stood in front of a nearly empty plenary hall late Tuesday evening and tried to convince the few attendees of the seriousness of the situation: "2026 is not over yet - and this year is marked by the accumulation of crises," he said. "That is why we will again pursue a consolidation course in 2027. We cannot resign ourselves to this," Lescure cautioned. To prevent us from having to borrow more and more money and to maintain our leeway, there is only one way: to reduce our budget deficit - from the current 5.4 to 5.0 percent of economic output. #Haushaltsdebatte #Frankreich #Finanzpolitik (translated)

A sense of home wrote that Merkel from the CDU is reversing an election and Schulze, also from the CDU, is forcing representatives to leave the plenary chamber during the election. This is typical of the CDU and, in his view, explains the declining percentages. #CDU #Wahl #Politik (translated)

The author criticized that members of parliament left the plenary hall for party-political reasons before the election of the head of government. In his view, they mocked the voters and damaged the reputation of democracy. He also asked whether the CDU was aware of what they were doing with their behavior during the election of Siegmund. #Demokratie #Wahlen #CDU #DE #AT (translated)

Heimatgefühl wrote that the CDU wants to leave the plenary chamber together on election day in December. As a comparison, the author cited a scenario from professional life: If an employee were to persuade a group to collectively cease work and leave the room, he would, in his estimation, have to expect a warning or immediate dismissal. At the same time, Heimatgefühl criticized politicians as overpaid and accused them of using parliament for political power games. Individuals like Schulze, in his opinion, take too much liberty. Those who hold a political mandate bear responsibility towards the citizens; however, according to Heimatgefühl, the CDU is indifferent to them. #CDU #Politik #Wahlen (translated)

Apollo News reported that the CDU wants to leave the plenary chamber during the election of the Minister-President in Saxony-Anhalt. The media described the treatment of dissenters within its own ranks in the fight against the AfD as harmful to representative democracy. https://t.co/PzPbZ82TbC https://t.co/6zjYFBFpTr #SachsenAnhalt #CDU #Demokratie (translated)

Heimatgefühl wrote that Alice Weidel has stated that Ulrich Siegmund will be Minister President. The fact that the CDU wants to leave the plenary hall together does not impress Weidel. She labeled the CDU's approach as "top-notch kindergarten"; Heimatgefühl agreed with this assessment and called the approach ridiculous and undemocratic. Moreover, Heimatgefühl expressed confidence that Siegmund will be successful. #Politik #CDU #Wahlen (translated)

Heimatgefühl wrote that Sven Schulze knows he would lose an election against Ulrich Siegmund in December. Therefore, there is now "peer pressure" in the CDU, and the faction may leave the plenary chamber together. Heimatgefühl criticized the decision as a sign of lack of self-respect and suspected that it was intended to keep Schulze in power. The contribution predicted that the action would go viral and Schulze would embarrass himself worldwide. #CDU #Wahlen #Politik (translated)

Sven Schulze wrote that he, together with the CDU Sachsen-Anhalt, would leave the plenary hall in unison because he was afraid that Ulrich Siegmund would become the Minister President and that Schulze's political career would thus be over. The author predicted that the images of the day would go viral worldwide and that the AfD would emerge again as the winner from this. #SachsenAnhalt #CDU #Politik (translated)

DavidGegenGoliath wrote that the CDU of Saxony-Anhalt wants to leave the plenary chamber united during the election of Ulrich Siegmund so that no one votes "incorrectly." He claimed that representatives would be escorted out for their protection; those remaining in the chamber would be viewed with suspicion. This is not a firewall, but a restriction of a secret vote. He asked what would happen if the four CDU representatives remained seated and took an open stance. Then it would become clear that elected officials are obligated to their voters and not to the party line, he wrote. The AfD won the election by a landslide, while the CDU is fleeing from the vote, according to his portrayal. https://t.co/So7MmQZkrv #Politik #Demokratie #Wahlen (translated)
