From March 1st, hairdressers are allowed to reopen.
This is good news for the operators and their customers.
But Tübingen's mayor Boris Palmer is incomprehensible.
Tübingen - The opening of hairdressers in the Corona crisis is an emotional issue for many people.
The politicians are aware of this.
Bavaria's Prime Minister Markus Söder said after the Corona summit that it also had something to do with dignity.
People have to be able to "find themselves" in the pandemic.
Berlin's Governing Mayor Michael Müller (SPD), in turn, let it be known at the press conference that the great importance of hairdressers was not entirely clear to him.
In an interview with
Focus
, Tübingen's Mayor Boris Palmer also made it clear that he does not understand why hairdressers play a special role in the corona pandemic.
Compared to the
German press agency
, Palmer was unpretentious: "My secretary often says to me: 'I'll make an appointment with the hairdresser because it's time again March 1 am happy, he does not understand why only they are allowed to open.
Boris Palmer criticizes Corona politics - he doesn't understand why hairdressers get a special role
“I would have liked to see further opening steps, especially in the education sector and for the inner cities.
I don't find some things really logical either, like lowering the incidence value to 35, which is difficult to understand.
And why hairdressers are now suddenly chosen as a life support measure is not entirely clear to me, ”said Boris Palmer in an interview with
Focus
.
The Green politician is considered a critic of the federal government's corona policy.
“It is generally a problem for politics in Berlin, but also in the state capitals, that they don't implement what they decide themselves.
This often results in impractical suggestions that we then have to adjust on site, ”he criticized.
During the conversation, he took up the planned corona rapid tests, among other things, with reference to the fact that these are already being used in South Korea and Austria.
“We're just getting in our own way with our bureaucracy and that's a problem in the pandemic where time is at stake,” Palmer said.
In his opinion, the advisory group around Chancellor Angela Merkel should include a mayor or district administrator in addition to “theoretical modelers from the Max Planck Institute”.
Sharp words from Tübingen in the direction of Berlin.
