The left are happy about the opportunity to return to the Schwerin state government after 15 years of opposition. "We are pleased with the decision," said the spokeswoman for the Left Party's exploratory group, Simone Oldenburg, on Wednesday evening. Previously, the SPD state chairman and Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig announced that she wanted to start coalition negotiations with the left.
Schwerin - "With this, the SPD has decided in favor of a new departure and a social impetus in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania," said Oldenburg.
"Now there is the chance to get our country out of the wage cellar, to strengthen the economy and to put children, young people and families at the center of our work." Oldenburg announced plans for more teachers, fewer lessons lost and higher quality in daycare centers as well as an industrial strategy that takes climate and environmental protection into account.
