German Populist Party's Legal Challenge To Election Result Could Block Globalist Coalitions Path To Power

 

The day after the general election in Germany

Germany's radical, left-of-centre, populist party the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW), which in last month's election narrowly missed gaining enough votes to be allocated seats in the Bundestag, filed a complaint on Monday (10 Feb) with the constitutional court, legally challenging the results of the national election, a spokesperson said.

The leftist populist BSW, which was only created in 2024 after its eponymous leader quite the more conventionally left Linke party over its support for German support for Ukraine and direct involvement in the conflict. BSW which is also Eurosceptic and supports immigration controls scored 4.97% in last month's election, lacking just 13,400 votes to enter parliament in a country where around 60 million people are eligible to cast a ballot.

Suspicions of voting and vote counting irregularities were raised in the days immediately following announcement of the election result which gave the two main globalist parties CDU- CSU and the SDP enough seats in the assembly to form a coalition, freezing out Germany's second largest Party, the Eurosceptic populist group Alternatif fur Deutschand (AfD). If BSW had attracted enough voted to enter the Bundestag, the CDU / SDP coalition would not have enough seats to form a ruling coalition.

The only option open to the globalists then would have been to bring the far left Greens into a three pary coalition. However the recently ousted SDP/Liberal/Green coalition was torn apart by The Greens insistence on extremist policies that resulted in electricity rationing and rocketing proces for domestic fuel.

"Several thousand BSW votes have apparently been incorrectly allocated to other parties or deemed invalid," the party leader Sahra Wagenknecht was quoted as saying by news organisation the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ). Respect for the voters demanded that "possible errors be scrutinised and corrected", she was cited as saying.
 
We have a feeling this one will run and run.

German Elections: Integrity Of The Result Questioned After Anti - Establishment BSW Party Conveniently Fails By 14000 Votes To Win Seats

 

Globalist wet liberal Friedrich Merz looks set to be the next chancellor of Germany after his Christian Democrats (CDU), along with its Bavarian sister party (CSU), won Sunday’s federal election with 28.6 percent, comfortably ahead of the ani - immigration party AfD which seured second place thus breaking the traditional German duopoly as the Social Democrats crashed to only 16% of the vote.

The CDU/CSU did not win enough votes for an oversall majority and it is likely to form another Grand Coalition with the Social Democrats although the to parties have little common ground on policy and share only a desire born of fear for their own positions, to keep AfD out of government.

The election delivered the anticipated political shake-up as the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) made historic gains, the Free Democratic Party (FDP) crashed out of parliament, and the newly founded left-wing, anti-immigration BSW agonizingly fell just short of the 5 percent threshold to win seats in the Bundestag. Had BSW made it into the Bundestag that would have changed the picture because it would take seats from the SDP and leave Merz needing a third coalition member. The CSU, somewhat more conservative than the CDU who are a bunch of political grifters and will do anything to hold on to power.

CDU will not work with AfD and so would only have the far left Linke and the loony left Greens available to complete the triumvirate, but the CSU will not work with the Greens so a ruling coalition without AfD would not have been possible.

With just 14,000 votes, the election result could have been radically different. The German voting system only applies if a party scores 5 percent of the vote, and if they fail to achieve that, millions of votes can be flushed down the drain and those voters get no representation at all. While most countries have some kind of voter hurdle in Europe, Germany’s is exceptionally high.

The Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW) came incredibly close to wielding power, scoring 4.972 percent of the vote. In all of Germany, they were short 14,000 votes. 

German democracy only applies if a party scores 5 percent of the vote, and if they fail to achieve that, millions of votes can be flushed down the drain and those voters get no representation at all. While most countries have some kind of voter hurdle in Europe, Germany’s is exceptionally high.

The result means that the composition of parliament is vastly different than it would have been if the party was included. 

If BSW had made it into parliament, the CDU would have had to find a third coalition partner, as the SPD would not have been enough to secure a majority. With a two-party coalition, not only is it easier for the CDU to form a government but that government is also likely to be far more stable than a three-party coalition. The AfD and BSW would have also taken a third of all seats, which would have given them a blocking minority, and would have enabled them to push back in certain areas.

The AfD has doubled its vote since 2021, but is still falling short of its own ambitions. It is no longer a phenomenon confined to the former communist state of East Germany, winning over many working-class voters from the SPD, increasingly including those in West Germany, and many first-time voters. 

Campaigning as a fairly standard Right-wing populist party (not 'far right' as it has been dubbed in mainstream media all over Europe,) the leftward drift of legacy parties has given the working class voter nowhere else to look for a party that addresses their concerns. To be excluded  again from Government by the ‘firewall’, it will only become more popular as the face of the real opposition to the miserable status quo. We can easily anticipate the fate of whatever national coalition forms; similar coalitions at the state level have led to political gridlock

German democracy only applies if a party scores 5 percent of the vote, and if they fail to achieve that, millions of votes can be flushed down the drain and those voters get no representation at all. While most countries have some kind of voter hurdle in Europe, Germany’s is exceptionally high.

So far BSW leader, Sahra Wagenknecht has stated that it would not be the end of her party regardless of whether the BSW makes it into parliament or not; however, she has signaled she may withdraw from politics.

However, BSW MEP Fabio de Masi is already raising questions about the election outcome and hinting at jiggery pokery in the vote count, writing on X: “I fear this election will still keep Courts busy.”

“A legal round is not out of the question. Proceedings first in the Bundestag, then in the Federal Constitutional Court. The question is, are there electoral errors and are they relevant to the mandate?” wrote Masi.

 This could develop into a hugely entertaining mess. Nobody can hear the fat lady singing, in fact it seems certain she hasn't even entered the building yet. Get the snacks and beer ready.

German Government Collapses After Scholz Sacks Finance Minister

 Fragile coalition crumbles after days of crisis talks, with elections expected as soon as March, six months ahead of schedule.

Germany’s fragile government has collapsed after Olaf Scholz fired his finance minister on Wednesday evening.

The Chancellor sacked Christian Lindner after days of crisis talks and amid a deluge of rumours that his turbulent coalition was about to come to an end.

In a statement to the press on Wednesday evening, the chancellor accused his finance minister of “breaking his trust” and putting the “short-term survival of his party over the wellbeing of the country.”

Mr Scholz, 66, said that he would put his chancellorship to a vote of confidence in January, a move that will clear the way for early elections in March.

Mr Lindner, head of the pro-business Free Democrats, had been pushing for corporate tax relief and a delay to net zero targets as part of a comprehensive package to get the economy moving after years of stagnation.

The governing coalition, which was cobbled together from three parties that shared little common groung politicallyby the EU for the sole purpose of keeping the anti - EU, right of centre Alternatif fur Deutschland (AfD out of power has collapsed after Olaf Scholz fired his finance minister on Wednesday evening.

Mr Lindner, head of the pro-business Free Democrats, had been pushing for corporate tax relief and a delay to net zero targets as part of a comprehensive package to get the economy moving after years of stagnation.

The coalition had been at odds for a while, with serious strains on the budget for 2025 and a disappointing performance by the German economy eliciting increasingly different suggestions on how to face and solve the problems.

Representatives of the three parties making up Germany's center-left government — the Social Democrats (SPD), neoliberal Free Democrats (FDP) and Greens — met for a crisis meeting on Wednesday evening. It lasted only two hours.

The coalition partners no longer had much to say to each other. Finance Minister Christian Lindner (FDP) proposed early elections, Chancellor Olaf Scholz refused and dismissed Lindner from office. Scholz addressed the media at 9.15 pm.

This was the day on which the first three-party alliance in the history of the Federal Republic of Germany spiraled out of control and could no longer stabilize itself.

Many coalition lawmakers had hoped that in the aftermath of Donald Trump securing the US presidency once more, internal strife could be put aside to focus on the geopolitical challenges ahead.

SPD leader Lars Klingbeil told German public broadcaster ARD in the morning: "I hope that everyone will now throw party tactics overboard, that everyone will look each other in the eye in the coalition committee this evening and realise once again what responsibility they now bear".

Alas, it was not to be. Political analyst Thu Nguyen, Deputy Director at the Berlin based think tank Jacques Delors Centre commented on social media: "Trump‘s election did not keep the German government from collapsing for even one day. Not sure this bodes well for those hopeful that it might shock the EU into more common action."

The downfall, or slow motion train wreck as some might describe it, began on November 15, 2023, when the Federal Constitutional Court declared parts of the government's budget policy unconstitutional. It left the coalition ithout a viable financial plan, and exposed the rifts between its partners.

However, the three parties' basic political convictions did not fit together in the first place. The SPD and Greens are essentially left-wing parties that believe in a strong state and need a lot of money for social policy and climate protection.

The economically liberal FDP is of the opposite opinion: It believes in a lean state that should only intervene in exceptional cases and exercise financial restraint. During the election campaign, the party promised to balance the budget and comply with the debt brake enshrined in Germany's constitution.

 Since Hausfrau - Volksfuhrer Merkel left office Germany has lurched from one disaster to another mostly due the the departed Chencellor's legacy policies, Net Zero and Open Borders. It was inevitable  this dysfunctional coalition would collapse in a shambolic craptangle sooner rather than later.

Whilst in UK Starmer thinks he's safe he has another think coming as he haas never really won the election, his stonking majority it was gifted to him by the ineptitude of the Tries and the apathy of voters, but in just over 100 days he has managed to crystalise the British public against him and his gang of freeloading imbeciles. The omnishambles budget has just about undone Labour.

And the case that the 50 million climate refugees that were predicted tTo descend on the west, having been displaced by rising sea levels are apparently all hiding under Harry Potter's Cloak of Invisibility is ignored.

Germany's Authoritarian Ruling Coalition Tries To Stay In Power By Banning Opposition Parties - Haven't We Been Here Before?

This blog and our other sites have reported many times over the past few years how a kind of political authoritarianism last seen in the early 1930s is on the rise again in its traditional home, Germany. Despite all the warning published by alt_news reporters and commentators, and even by mainstream media the race to the far right goes on, with the parties of Germany's ruling coalition claiming that democratic election results must be overturned and opposition parties banned from running for election in order to 'protect democracy'

Germany is heading closer to outright fascism as the establishment parties move to completely ban the rival Alternative for Germany party (AfD), currently the second-strongest party in the country, according to polling. Now, 10 MPs from four parties, each, totaling 40 MPs from the Christian Democrats (CDU), the Left Party, the Greens, and the Social Democrats (SPD) will put forward a motion to ban the party because it is a “threat to democracy.”

The motion was drawn up by Saxon CDU MP Marco Wanderwitz, who personally lost his local election to an AfD politician but is only in parliament because he was also included on the CDU’s election list. As Remix News has reported, he has been working for at least a year to gather enough support from members of parliament to pass a ban on the AfD.

Although Wanderwitz has struggled to get the required 37 signatures to put forward the motion, now that many of the ruling establishment parties have lost by huge margins in the eastern state of Thuringia, Brandenburg, and Saxony, his work has been easier.

Elsewhere reports are emerging that the German government is facing a ten billion Euros deficit related to promised 2025 welfare payments to overwhelmingly non-German “migrants,” which it euphemistically and sadistically calls “citizens’ money.”

Bild reports: 

The German federal government has “miscalculated” billions in welfare payments, known as citizens’ money, with their initial estimate of €36 billion far short of the €46 billion reportedly needed.

It is also alleged that payments to migrants now account for half of Germany's welfare budged

In documents obtained by Bild newspaper, the German labor ministry assumes an average of 2.9 million people are in need of welfare parents in the documents for the “2025 budget,” dated from August 2024. However, this document indicates that the expenditure on standard rates and accommodation costs is expected to total €45.6 billion, which is a far cry from the €36 billion set in the 2025 citizen’s allowance budget.

The huge discrepancy has sparked outrage, but Hubertus Heil’s (SPD) labor ministry told Bild that the figures published “are not comprehensible and are methodologically based on several false assumptions… For example, a significant portion of the costs of accommodation are to be covered by the municipalities and are therefore not relevant to the federal budget in the amount stated.”

*

"Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the German president, recently warned in a speech to the country’s domestic intelligence agency that “we all have it in our hands to put those who despise our democracy in their place”.

Far be it from we Boggart Bloggers to tell the German nation how to conduct their affairs but, if our understanding of 20th century German history is correct, we advise current German politicians to recall that a ceertain Herr A H was successful in politics because he secured power by demonising and banning opposition parties, that succeeded in the short term but on a longer timeline did not end well for either the German nation or Herr A H and his supporters.  

We have all been pretty shocked at how quickly and easily large proportions of many nations and their engines of authority, including our own, succumb to unscrupulous tactics which use scaremongering propaganda to capitalise on fear and panic.

Perhaps, rather than assuming people on the right of the voting spectrum despise democracy, Mr Steinmeier and the politicians in Germany's ruling coalition might reflect that some of us, in the UK and surely also in Germany, are deeply concerned at the cavalier attitude towards democracy that our governments have displayed recently. He might turn his attention to why it is that the "far right" AfD appear to be gaining ground in the political field? Is he accusing his fellow countrymen of a lack of decency and discernment, or is it something to do with the way authoritarian way Brussels and the German government treat the people and some other governments of Europe?

Dystopia Watch: German Intelligence Chief Defends Efforts to Surveil Citizens “Thought and Speech Patterns”

 5 April 2024

The German Homeland Security Ministry, in stubbornly trying  to defend its controversial and widely criticised plans to control the speaking and writing engagements, and restrict the access to travel and economic activity of political dissidents (and their definition of political dissidents can mean members of mainstream political parties that oppose the ruling coalition.

The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), to use the agency's formal title is responsible for Germany's domestic intelligence service and political police, and has recently sacrificed substantial public respect due to this campaign which has included attempts to have the third largest party in Germany's elected assembly banned and declared a threat to democracy. 

According to a poll published last month, a majority of Germans believe that the BfV is being misused for political purposes.

The sentiment is prominent across all parties, except of course for the Maoist partner in the ruling coalition, The Greens, who believe that all is well with the Federal Republic and that the Peoples Republic of China is the benchmark for all the world's liberal democracies.


Thomas Haldenwang (left), the porcine appearance is not the only way he resembles a certain character from George Orwell's Animal Farm

The creepy, dissolute and porcine looking BfV chief, Thomas Haldenwang, has penned an article for the Frankfurter Allgemeine to defend the undemocratic policies of his department and justify his plans to shape the “thought and speech patterns” of ordinary people through official repression.

The thing about “freedom of expression,” Haldenwang explains, is that it “is not carte blanche for enemies of the constitution”. Here's an extract:

Recently, public discourse has repeatedly featured headlines and articles calling the work of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) into question. There is talk of an “opinion police,” a “language police” and even a “Government security service”. They say the BfV discredits political opinions “on command” as extremist as soon as they depart from the social and political mainstream, or when they embark upon criticism of Government action or the work of the democratic parties.

One thing should be unmistakably clear: freedom of opinion prevails in Germany – and that is a good thing! Freedom of opinion is a fundamental element of our constitution and one of the greatest assets of our liberal democratic order. As such, it is also protected by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution.

“Freedom of opinion,” Haldenwang explains, is what “distinguishes a democracy from an autocracy or a dictatorship.” In the Federal Republic even expression of “offensive, absurd and radical opinions” are protected, as long as the language does not violate the law.

Within the law as it stands, however, there is a grey area that Haldenwang and his minders in the Interior Ministry get to define or to put it another way, as it stands the law does not stand still but may move in any direction that suits those who police it. Anyone who enters this zone of shapeshifting monsters and shivering sands,  may end up inviting the unwelcome attention of the political police even though no laws had actually been broke at the time of publication.

Put bluntly, there is clearly illegal speech on the one hand, and on the other hand there is speech which is alas not yet illegal, but which existing authorities will use all the administrative tools at their disposal to dissuade you from. Such speech, we might say, is pre-illegal, and only reluctantly permitted because the hurdles to banning it are too substantial. If you find this hard to understand, read Minority Report by Phillip K Dick.

Under Germany's current shapeshifting law concerning freedom of speech, you become susceptible to surveillance and harassment by the BfV whenever you express opinions that suggest you are interested in “eliminating the free democratic order” of the Federal Republic. Your mere freedom of expression is “not a licence to evade observation and evaluation” by the political police if there are “factual indications” that your thought is tending in unconstitutional directions. And what are these unconstitutional directions? In a nutshell, disagreeing in any way with the policies of the ruling coalition.

Unsurprisingly, the scope of what is “unconstitutional” in thought and speech turns out very wide indeed. Were Herr Haldenwang, the head of Germany's Animal Farm BvF more honest he might clarify matters by saying, "All the animals are equal but some are more equal than others."
