The Beer Party published the first details of its election manifesto on Monday. This concerns both the areas of migration and asylum and health care. For example, the party calls for better integration of immigrants and better medical care.
Asylum is a human right and qualified immigration is necessary, the homepage of the small party states. However, asylum abuse must be punished. The Beer Party also calls for a mandatory distribution of asylum seekers in the EU and within Austria. How this should happen remains unclear. In addition, faster asylum procedures, faster recognition of professional qualifications and qualification measures for people who are allowed to stay in the country permanently would be necessary.
Transferring values from day one
Other points of the beer party include: conveying values from day one “for all people who come to Austria and do not speak enough German.” To prevent violence in public spaces, more social workers are needed in schools, more resources for the police and more social workers on the streets.
Criticism of two-class medicine
In the area of health, the ideas are more concrete. The Beer Party criticizes the two-class medicine and calls for the expansion of existing projects, such as the primary care centers and the health hotline 1450. In addition, there would be a need for a uniform catalogue of services and reimbursements, and for more statutory health insurance, doctors, secure training places with job guarantees and basic training in hospitals.
In the area of nursing, the small party wants to increase the training allowance and provide more support for administrative activities. There should also be more emphasis on prevention, for example by giving daily gym lessons and a reduction in the health insurance premium if preventive examinations are carried out.
