Herbert Kickl failed only a few meters before the desired chancellery. Neither the first place in the elections of the National Council, nor the 180 degrees Turn of the ÖVP, which had finally introduced government negotiations with the FPö, could come true the blue dream of the “Chancellor”.
The Lange -Lined Kickl was able to bring his aggressive rhetoric only to a limited extent in the negotiations, (too) high and to accuse the ÖVP with its claim on power. An end of the career of Kickl at the head of freedom will hardly mean that from the coalition negotiations with the People’s Party. On the contrary, it is to be expected that the Carinthian, who has become home to De Vienna, will see the negotiation of negotiations as a new incentive to take another record in a possible election.
Kickl, who was considered a man in the second row before taking up power in the party for a long time, made his promotion on the right with a tight job. Asked, he realized that you can currently go very far politically without losing the voter. While his predecessors on the FPö tip still tried to penetrate the political center, Kickl continued to push the freedom to the right. A scientifically moderately healthy Corona policy used him, long lack of content-related concepts do not damage anything. To this end, he skilled the liberal subject skillfully with right -wing points such as criticism of climate protection, stands against “Wokess” and “Genderwahn” and also had a considerably different course in terms of Russia and Ukraine than the other parties.
Kickl Sealed FPö on the right
Kickl, who is not necessarily a charming sympathizer himself, was able to close the right edge in front of the FPö. While a clambered from different parties to the left of the middle and the ÖVP with the Neos was an annoying opponent, the FPö Boss communicates everything that is far to the right. The Pandemie also made it possible for blue to also fish in the pond of the opponents of measures. The fact that he shared the coarse -looking positions and also granted the FPö MP with a benevolent manner, which, for example, did not detract from brand institutions such as the WHO as the possible “executive body of a new world government”. On the contrary: initially successful measures-critical lists such as the MFG, given the position of Kickl, impedes insignificantness.
Among the many observers, Kickl was considered a great strategist – at least to the current one from the coalition negotiations. The former GAG writer Jörg Haiders also acted as General Secretary under FPö boss Heinz-Christian Strache for many years and is estimated in an internal party as a famous campaign leader who always worked with the resources of provocation. Personally, Kickl, who does not appreciate glamor or love for society, does not have personally ahead.
Handicap as Minister of the Interior
Under the turquoise-blue government under Sebastian Kurz he would also have been satisfied with the rankele chairman of the club. But he was ordered to the Ministry of the Interior, where Kickl was more with asylum -critical symbolism as factual successes in the sense of freedom. At that time it was already too unpredictable the ÖVP, which is why he wanted to get rid of it from the Ibiza affair and let the government throw it.
That should have caused an ambition that was never known in Kickl. He pushed politics rather soft Norbert Hofer out of party leadership and positioned the FPö somewhat brutal. In addition to the well-known Anti-Buitenlandse policy and the fight against “awakened”, the resistance to Corona measures was used as a blue turbo. Almost nobody saw the irony of the fact that Kickl was the first to ask for a lockdown. The electorate did not disrupt the fact that he registered a deworming agent as an alternative treatment for vaccination.
Controversial Ukraine policy
From Corona it went directly to the Russian attack war on Ukraine, where the FPö fiercely rejected the military support of Kiev. The speech of the Ukrainian president of parliamentary speech was far away, but this did not prevent them from being indignant to reject the accusation of friendliness of Russia. The last thrust in ballot fuel recently raised inflation. As a quasi icing on the cake, the FPö also used criticism of – according to the Blue Diction – “Climate Communism”, the “Woken” and “Gender Craze”. The political opponents were no longer mentioned in the party name, but were in discredit as a “unit festival”.
But Kickl is enough strategist to know that you have to lure the ÖVP. As the married father of a son, who grew up in a family class family, until that time had previously had a social politician, he then presented an economic program in the election campaign where Snaps industrialists were. This was strategically his smartest train. With the root of tax reductions for the nose, the ÖVP -economic wing then wanted to go to an even less difficult duet with the Spö and it soon increase the entire people’s party to coal his previously made provisions with an FPö under Kickl. Stairwitz is that the day before the negotiation of the negotiation, WKö president Harald Mahrer of the FPö was the first to be “Government Fit”.
Strong position for Kickl
The fact that Kickl gave himself very little willingness to compromise in the negotiations is not only one in the elections of the National Council, in which the FPö was 28.85 percent just before the ÖVP with 26.27 percent. On the contrary, the current surveys have probably fueled the self -confidence of the blue: they were recently between 32 and 37 percent with values. If that remains, new elections would not benefit anyone like freedom.
Kickl lives Privé, who flutters more in the bath in the crowd than love. His passion applies to the mountains, where he likes to communicate his victories in the top on the social media of his followers. This is also associated with the only domestic problem he knew how to report in an interview before the elections. His wife is not very happy when he is shining with dirty hiking boots through the house in the lower Austria.
