The chancellor's popularity has sunk to rock-bottom levels while Europe's biggest economy continues to face years of stagnation.

Yes, and nothing will change that!

No one likes Merz, he should just go...

Linneman? The guy who wants to put all mentally ill on a list to prevent violent crimes? As Minister of health? I can’t imagine where this could go wrong…

Merz goes just like his orange pal

Didn't he reassure us in the "ARD Sommerinterview" (annual interview with top german politicians conducted by the public broadcaster ARd or ZDF) that he would totally not replace any ministers besides Spahn?

[–] geissi@feddit.org 2 points 6 days ago

Spahn wasn’t a minister in the first place.
Faction head is a party office that has nothing to do with the government.

This reshuffle has nothing to do with him, except perhaps as a pretext.
