The Greens want to get away from the image as a “elite party”

The Green Group’s tip wants to focus more on everyday problems for people. The Greens must give the Greens to think that the distorting image of the everyday elite party is catchy, the parliamentary group leader Britta Haßelmann and Katharina Dröge write in an internal strategy paper. It is said to be the basis for discussion for the exam of the parliamentary group at the beginning of the next week and will be entitled “A look back, a look ahead!”. The paper is available to the German Press Agency, previously the “Spiegel” reported.

In it, Haßelmann and Dröge teach about the time in the traffic light government and from the Bundestag election, in which the party introduced a disappointing result of 11.6 percent.

The party is associated with major questions of the future such as climate protection, defense of democracy, war and peace. In recent years, it has campaigned for social issues such as citizenship money. “But in the everyday life of people you think less. We have to change that. Because lousy school -to -do, leaky gyms, the bus in the village that does not come, the daycare center, which is closed because of a lack of personnel that grandma cannot live from her pension – all of this is everyday life in Germany,” says paper. All of this is as important as the world situation.

“The reign cost confidence,” write Dröge and Haßelmann. Some of the Greens would have explained their policies too little, such as the defense policy course with demands for an expansion of defense ability. “But when we struggle for the best way, we shouldn’t have narrowed the discussion so much to individual weapons systems.” You don’t call details in your paper. In the past, Greens politicians like Anton Hofreiter had vehemently spoken out for the delivery of Taurus marching aircraft to Ukraine.

The two chairpersons also see the communication in the heating law. “We would have had to prepare this law differently, also had to discuss it differently – also publicly. Because many people were not clear what it was and how it could work for them,” write Haßelmann and Dröge without naming the then responsible Minister of Economy Robert Habeck.
