Rose Monday parades in Cologne, Düsseldorf and Mainz. In Cologne satirical floats showed, among others, Olaf Scholz as a sloth in a hammock.
Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock as an elephant in a china shop. On another car, a jester figure stretches out his bare buttocks towards some arms stretched out in a Hitler salute. One arm has the AfD logo emblazoned on it. “This car actually says it all: They can kiss our asses,” said BAP singer Wolfgang Niedecken.
