The left is far, far weaker than it was in Kohl's day.
- ugh 16y agoNear collapse? Exaggerating much? And isn’t that just the point? The SPD is weakened from the left not from the right. That doesn’t matter much anyway because it doesn’t change the fundamentals. No party in Germany wants much change.
- route66 16y agoFinally HN turned into a political forum. (Tongue in cheek) The downfall of most parties is due to the fact that they do have no distinct marks anymore. For many socialdemocratic parties in Europe this began with embracing neocon agenda's. Christdemocratic parties turn to nature preservation, ecological parties advocate engagement in afghanistan ... Tells me that the era of differences is over, calling parties extreme left or right in european parliaments is mostly uninformed bogus.
