Everything is new to May: Bärbel Bas, just become a labor minister, should now also move to the top of the SPD-as co-chair with Lars Klingbeil.
The new Minister of Labor and Social Affairs Bärbel Bas is ready to become the new SPD party leader next to Lars Klingbeil. The two incumbent party leaders Saskia Esken and Klingbeil also proposed Tim Klüssendorf as a designated general secretary in a committee meeting.
Corresponding reports can star confirm.
BAS has been a favorite for a long time
The party left Tim Klüssendorf should take over the successor to Matthias Miersch, who was elected group leader.
The former Bundestag president had been considered interested and favorite for the post for a long time. The path is also free because the controversial co-boss Saskia Esken had declared her waiver of a new candidacy at the party congress at the end of June.
It is certain that Vice Chancellor and Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil will again face the party leader. In the party, however, there is criticism, such as in North Rhine-Westphalia, about its abundance of power-especially since he has to be responsible for the election defeat.
Popular with SPD Links, respect from the right
Like Esken, BAS belongs to the left party wing, but also enjoys respecting the conservative party flow of the Seeheim district. In addition, it comes from the strong state association North Rhine-Westphalia, which was not taken into account in Berlin in the last election period.
