Dominik Wlazny presented his first fellow activists on Wednesday, but the program of his beer festival is still a long time coming. We are currently working on getting fit for parliament. The ‘menu’ will be ‘gradually rolled out’ over the course of the campaign.
To date, nearly 10,000 members and supporters, or approximately 55 percent of the funding goal, have been reached. But that is just a “snapshot”, at each press conference and due to the media presence there are more, party founder Wlazny said at a press conference on Wednesday. “We are growing, we are growing organically. In reality, we are creating a parliamentary party from scratch – that takes time,” the musician explains his approach.
“Inner impulse” led to the beer festival
The fellow campaigners who presented on Wednesday – none of them “establishment” politicians – cited a desire to make a change as the reason for their involvement in the beer party. Moreover, Wlazny’s movement offers “easily accessible access” and provides a “breath of fresh air”. One of them is lawyer Viktoria Müllner, who says she specializes in data protection and IT law. Taking action was “an inner impulse.” It is important to her to be able to shape the world. In the past she worked in the human rights sector, Müllner says.
Thomas Schuster, an entrepreneur from the Weinviertel, wants to campaign in the Beer Party for the concerns of small and medium-sized businesses. He has been self-employed for twelve years. “SMEs are the backbone of the local economy.” Measures are needed to create space for innovation.
More about the “menu” at the next press conference
Doctor Heinrich Leskowschek, who works as an internist and gastroenterologist at the hospital in Leoben, wants to contribute his expertise to the health sector. He is “confident” that he can make a difference together with a great team.
To be continued: Further details will be presented at the next press conference at the end of May.
