Keir Starmer is obstacle to Scottish Labour winning this May says Anas Sarwar (in so many words). ‘My first loyalty is to Scotland.’ Too many mistakes - he’s a distraction.’ Hmm. Sounds like Anas is trying to seize agenda & get excuses in early ahead of likely election defeat.

Gibt es bei der CDU einen Wettbewerb, wer am härtesten auf Menschen im Bürgergeld eindreschen kann?

Die Menschen brauchen Jobs, die zu ihrem Leben passen. Gute Löhne. Zeit für Pflege oder um wieder auf die Beine zu kommen. Niemandem wird geholfen, wenn man sie in unbezahlte Pflichtarbeit peitscht!
