Edmund Stoiber and Friedrich Merz visited Alexander Radwan's campaign tour.

Merz did not save on tips against green.

Königsdorf - The most important place on the podium was still empty when Gerhard Knill, chairman of the SME Union, welcomed the audience in the hall of the Posthotel Hofherr around 6 p.m.

The CSU member of the Bundestag Alexander Radwan stopped in Königsdorf as part of his “RADWANdertour 2021” and would have liked to introduce the star guest of the evening to his right - but Friedrich Merz was stuck in a traffic jam.

The star guest was stuck in a traffic jam

The Vice President of the Economic Council of the Union had underestimated the traffic jams between his second home at Tegernsee and the venue.

"It's a different kind of election campaign event, a seal approaching," said Radwan, looking at the sparsely occupied tables in the wide hall.

Only a maximum of 50 listeners were allowed.

The event was organized by the SME Union of the CSU district associations Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen and Miesbach with their chairmen Gerhard Knill and Verena Heiler-Loth.

Before that, part of society had gotten an insight into a family business when visiting the Königsdorf company, Stöger-Automaten.

“A medium-sized jewel,” says Radwan, “that started in a garage and now has 120 employees”.

Stoiber agrees with guests - and speaks of far-reaching changes

The fact that automobile fan Friedrich Merz was only able to creep up on the event gave Edmund Stoiber, whom Radwan had been able to inspire to take part in the “Citizens' Dialogue”, more speaking time. The former Prime Minister got the audience in the mood for the “great challenges of our time”. Kurt Tucholsky said, "The people know little, but they suspect a lot," said Stoiber, who sees himself confirmed by reality: "91 percent of people suspect that we are facing far-reaching changes" - from the climate to Europe to ecological -social market economy ("That will be an explosive device").

At 6.40 p.m., the Wolfratshauser finally gave the floor to Friedrich Merz, who gave an insight into the Union's election program and sketched various possible scenarios after the federal election.

The pandemic was not missing.

"We cannot teach the children insufficiently for another school year with home office and at the same time keep them away from their social contacts in sports clubs, at school and wherever," said Merz.

The audience thanked them with applause.

We build the best cars in the world.

And there is a party that wants nothing more than to get rid of cars as soon as possible

Friedrich Merz

This was even louder when it came to the auto industry.

Merz: “We build the best cars in the world.

And there is a party that wants nothing more than to get rid of cars as quickly as possible. ”Of course, his speech also included“ praise for medium-sized companies ”.

Merz emphasizes the value of youth

In the subsequent round of dialogue, Friedrich Merz emphasized: “Well-educated young people are our only capital, the only resource we have.” A young listener received for his wish that the Union should like the generation of 16 to 30-year-olds more in the The focus is on "100 percent approval".

Merz promised: “You will not hear more about this from any politician than from me.”
