The opposition once again launches sharp attacks on Chancellor’s Party ÖVP. SPÖ deputy club boss Jörg Leichtfriedpochte is going for new elections on Monday and scrutinized the Greens. “You must now finally break the tightrope and get out of government.” FPÖ leader Herbert Kickl described the ÖVP as a “criminal organization” and “corrupt bastard”.
According to Leichtfried, ÖVP leader Chancellor Karl Nehammer is “part of the problem the ÖVP has” and not part of the solution. The fact that the ÖVP sent their lawyer Werner Suppan to the ORF discussion program “Im Zentrum” on Sunday evening instead of a political representative is “embarrassing” for Leichtfried.
Cause of the Court of Auditors
Wolfgang Bowl was often referred to as the silent chancellor, but “compared to Mr. Nehammer, Mr. Bowl was a chatterbox,” says Leichtfried. The Court assumes that the ÖVP lied to him about their finances, Leichtfried reminded them.
“What are you waiting for?”
Leichtfried also doesn’t rely on government to cut inflation. The queues for the social markets are getting longer and longer, the rescue services warn in view of fuel prices that they will soon be unable to drive away. “What are you waiting for?” The state must intervene in fuel prices for a limited period of time. Leichtfried announced a corresponding request in the National Council of companies that made huge profits in the slipstream of the crisis, the money should be returned through a special tax. They also want to request more money for retirees.
Leichtfried rejects criticism of price increase in Vienna
Leichtfried dismissed the fact that things aren’t looking so rosy in red-ruled Vienna, where a doubling of district heating prices is on the table: high gas prices lead to rising costs for energy companies, which is why it’s hard not to adjust, and these “dust costs” wouldn’t be addressed, that’s the problem. And the city of Vienna will also ‘impress’ this development with its own package.
FPÖ: “Corrupt bastard”
The FPÖ and NEOS also sharply criticized the government for the coming plenary days. The NEOS are also pushing for the abolition of “cold progression”. The FPÖ wants to devote itself to the “ÖVP corruption case”. The People’s Party is “in reality a criminal organization” or a “corrupt hodgepodge” and the mafia clause must be used quickly here, blue party leader Herbert Kickl said Monday.
