For various reasons, not everyone will be cheering in the Messe on Saturday when the Viennese SPÖ state party conference with Mayor Michael Ludwig and SPÖ leader Pamela Rendi-Wagner takes place.
The day is already turning sour, as the “Krone” learned – because the state party conference of the Viennese SPÖ in the Messe Wien falls on a Saturday after a window day. “Many would have liked to treat themselves to a long holiday weekend,” said a senior official. “That falls into the water.”
In addition, there is the protest of city street opponents. Demos for the state party conference are really not uncommon, but the activists, who also like to stick to floors, are becoming more and more unpredictable.

And then there’s the age limit – an old Kreisky rule. In the case of candidacy for a public office (member of the district council, district head, municipal council, etc.) it is set at 65. Exceptions are only decided by a two-thirds majority. Now an application reads: “The State Party Conference may decide to delete the above paragraph in §49 paragraph 1 candidacies in the statute without replacement.” The Recommendation: Acceptance.
Especially younger people who want to do something at the party are not particularly enthusiastic – on the other hand, older people have felt discriminated against.
