Sharp criticism of SPD: CDU man von Stetten: Bas as minister no longer acceptable
CDU member of parliament von Stetten has attacked Federal Minister of Labour Bas: He considers the SPD leader to be no longer tenable as a minister. Deputy Chancellor Klingbeil also gets his share.
Christian von Stetten, chairman of the influential parliamentary group Mittelstand in the CDU/CSU faction, has questioned Bärbel Bas's suitability as Federal Minister of Labour. He accused her of blocking urgently needed reforms and claimed she is trying to avoid being replaced as SPD party leader by not presenting necessary reform laws.
Von Stetten also criticized the coalition partner SPD, stating that their ideology is incompatible with future-oriented reforms. He further criticized Vice Chancellor Lars Klingbeil and the proposed budget for the coming year, calling it "not approvable" due to insufficient savings measures and proposed tax increases.
