The leadership of the Union and the Social Democrats (SPD) intends to demonstrate their independence from the federal government during a closed-door meeting starting Thursday in Münster. This sentiment, according to Alexander Hoffmann, head of the CSU regional group and speaking to the “Rheinische Post,” reflects the desire to push for real change. Hoffmann emphasized that voters expect concrete results, meaning the factions of the CDU/CSU and SPD must act as “a driving force rather than mere acquiescers to the government.” The party leaders plan to kick off the second half of the political year together in Münster. Hoffmann noted the necessity of close coordination, stating that the coalition faces a substantial work program in the coming months. Furthermore, they intend to vigorously advance the modernization of the state.
