Federal Election 2021: Mason’s candidacy (CDU) causes outrage

In federal politics, Hans-George Mason’s candidacy has long been the subject of heated debate. “I expect Armin Laschett to finally distance himself from Mason, and the CDU will resolutely oppose switching to the right in its own ranks. This would not have happened under Angela Merkel on CDU,” said Lars Klingbail, general secretary of the German press.

Klingbail cited a letter from Mason, in which the former head of the Federal Office for the Defense of the Constitution wrote: “I know some people are flirting with the AfD. But she will probably be in opposition. Due to her loneliness. Masen said he had lost the vote for the AfD and would only “help left parties if in doubt”. Klingbail said Masen is campaigning for right-wing voices with the promise that you will get AfD content from him. “It exposes his right-wing positions, but a bad offer.”

When asked what he thinks about the migration of skilled workers abroad, the former constitutional defense official said: “I think 82 million people can create the skilled workers we need.” SPD man Ulrich responded, “Zuhl lost 30,000 people. This is a shrinking city. (DVD / DPA)
