Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW), a fresh political force challenging the increasingly weaker globalist establishment On the left, Germany was officially declared a parliamentary group (Gruppe) in the Bundestag.
This will let the parties to safe access to an yearly budget of EUR 4.9 million from state funds as first capital. The group position differs from the faction position in the Bundestag. At least 5 percent of Bundestag members belonging to the same organization are required to form a faction – presently 38. erstwhile a organization falls below that number (or, as in the case of the BSW, MPs form a fresh party), MPs hold their mandates but lose their privileges as a faction. The Bundestag rules let designation as a group of deputies who want to join forces but did not scope the minimum number of factions. The formation of the faction shall take place in accordance with the law and the Bundestag shall decide by a majority of the votes whether to consent to the formation of the group. Fractions have broader formal rights than groups; Groups have more rights than non-attached individual members.
There are presently 5 factions in the Bundestag: SPD, Greens and FDP in the Light Signaling Coalition and CSU/CDU and AfD in the opposition.
The designation of the BSW parliamentary faction came after the faction Die Linke (Levice) in the Bundestag announced its solution last November after the Wagenknecht and 9 another MPs, who provided as motivation a sustained left-liberal organization drift. Together with the BSW, the remaining 28 Members of the Left regained the authoritative position of the parliamentary group in the Bundestag, which gives the group a full of EUR 7.4 million per year from taxpayers' money.
Members of both groups will now have far more parliamentary rights than non-attached Members.
The rights conferred on the groups under the Bundestag legal framework include:
* Oh, my God * The anticipation of sending Members to specialised committees and their subcommittees, if necessary
* Oh, my God * 1 associate in the Council of Elders and voting rights in the interior affairs of the Bundestag
* Oh, my God * Right to submit draft laws, proposals and draft resolutions
* Oh, my God * Right to ask 10 main or secondary questions in the calendar month
* Oh, my God * Right to request their proposals to be included on the agenda and, if necessary, to submit periodic reports on their proposals
* Oh, my God * Right to apply for compliance with the Rules of Procedure if supported by at least 37 Members
Other rights of parliamentary groups are not laid down in the Act but determined by a majority in the Bundestag. BSW and Left Members powerfully criticise the ruling parties for utilizing this power to reduce the number of questions that can be raised up to 10 per month. Earlier, the Left Parliamentary faction had submitted about 40 inquiries to the government per month.
"This regulation is outrageous. The Light Signalling Coalition wants to drastically reduce the control rights of the opposition, especially with respect to parliamentary right to ask questions," said the Left president Janine Wissler in a conversation with the Rheinische Post.
"Small and large investigations would uncover information that the government and authorities would like to keep secret," she added. BSW MP, Jessica Tatti, for her part, she described this regulation as “necessary intimidation of the opposition”, adding, “I think it is absolutely wrong, petty and legally questionable that the government limits the opposition's rights to [limiting investigations] in this way”.
Vice-President of the Union (CDU/CSU) in the Bundestag Andrea Lindholz (CSU) She excluded cooperation with the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW), telling Deutsche Presse Agentur that she was “not imagining” cooperation with the fresh organization “the same way she could not imagine cooperation with the Left Party”. Everything we know so far about BSW shows that the organization is "AfD and Left organization mix“and “none of these things fits us at all.”
Lindholz besides distanced herself from Union Values of Hans-George Maaßen. "When it comes to the alleged Union of Values, people who talk there are politically very close to AfD. I would not be amazed if any members were there and were already known to our safety authorities."
A German intelligence agency a fewer days ago placed Maaßen under reflection in connection with his alleged sympathies and connections with "right-wing extremism", as previously reported by The European Conservative. "I am stunned by the way Hans-Georg Maaßen took. I frequently asked myself erstwhile Mr Maaßen turned the incorrect way," said the deputy head of the Parliamentary faction of the Union.
