This sentence from evening of November 19 follows Christian Lindner to this day: "It is better not to rule than to rule wrong," FDP chief let Black-yellow-green probes fail. But instead of looking like a principle-based party that does not want power at all costs, Liberals looked like fallers, whose reasons for rejection of Jamaica remained veiled to many people.
The actual plan for radiant Posterboy Christian Lindner was anor. He brings FDP out of sinking and directs m into a government stake. It was ambitious in electoral program: "We müssenetwas do – we do not look any longer". But now party is on opposition benches, right next to AfD. The former justice minister Sabine Leuusser-Schnarrenberger urges her party to make it comfortable in this area. One day before Epiphany, she warns in a guest post for Süddeutsche Zeitung before a "race competition in indecency" and calls for a clear edge against right populism. Leuusser-Schnarrenberger also expresses her regret that FDP had chance to pass Jamaica.
She's not alone. Above all representatives of Industrial and craft associations – of which a large part for Free Democrats voted have been allowed – expressed ir displeasure that Merkel can now, in all foresight, continue to do exactly with her Groko. A continuation of grand coalition also wishes many Mittelständlernicht. "The entrepreneurial middle class imagines that it is best if FDP coexists, because it n expects us to take steps in einevolkswirtschaftliche renewal," says chairman of LiberalenMittelstands, Thomas Kemmerich. A black-and-red Alliance is also critically opposed: "Four years ' Weiterso ' is not a good sign for our country. New business ideas are being created Außerhalbvon Germany and EU. It is high time to do something. "
The fact that a government involvement of FDP is well gewesenwäre, of which former interior minister Gerhart Baum is convinced of left-Liberal party wing. By cancelling talks, his party suffered a undVertrauensverlust of credibility, he told editorial network Germany. This is also reflected in approval values that have decreased by one to two percentage points. The party must nunlernen to deal with accusation that "things are now happening that y can hätteverhindern, and things that y can hättebewirken in government," says Baum. The FDP is carrying eineLast with him through conversation.
Merkel as main culpritIt seems that Christian Lindner, who has not been tired since n, repeatedly explains why a Jamaica alliance "did not bring necessary Erneuerungunseres country". Once it was said that contents did not fit, it became later narrative, with oh so moralizing greens do not go, FDP reigns in Schleswig-Holstein and Rhineland-Palatinate with m.
The main guilt, however, was finally blamed on Angela Merkel, who simply wanted to continue in Groko style. Without her, a new Jamaica experiment in next legislature could be quite conceivable, said Lindner. FraktionsvizeMichael Theurer immediately proposed to replace Merkel with Jens Spahn, Kemmerich called for "negotiations without Merkelwieder" via press release and Baden-Württemberg Bundestag group chairman Hans-UlrichRülke described CDU chief as Problem that Union must solve, ifyou to rule with FDP sometime. The Personaldebattevon faction deputy Alexander Graf Lambsdorff, who dazuaufrief his party colleagues energetically, would rar take care of his own affairs – for example, to become an opposition party.
