Maxi Schafroth lambasted Bavaria's politicians at the Nockherberg.
But the farmers' association also got its fat.
This is how the Derbleckten are now countering.
Munich – “Dear farmers, open your eyes.
“A family business that thinks it is well represented by the Bavarian Farmers’ Association is like a chicken demanding its basic rights from the Wiesenhof company,” Schafroth appealed to the farmers.
Upper Bavaria's BBV district president Ralf Huber takes it with humor - but had to calm things down.
“Members called me early in the morning,” he said yesterday.
The Nockherberg aftershock.
The fact is: Schafroth's statement about the BBV is simply wrong.
“Small businesses are being killed by politics.
We are trying everything so that they can survive.”
“For a Mediterranean guy like me, Franconian wine is poison.”
There was also criticism of wines and beers from Franconia.
At the Singspiel, Munich Mayor Dieter Reiter (Gerhard Wittmann) complained of a bad headache.
The reason: “For a Mediterranean guy like me, Franconian wine is poison.” The Franconian winegrowers also take it with humor: The Old Bavarians were just trying to badmouth the enjoyment of Franconian wine, says Michael Bock from the Franconian Winegrowers Association.
Reason: “So that there is more left for them,” says Bock.
The Singspiel also featured Franconian beer.
In the Singspiel, Reiter asked Friedrich Merz (David Zimmerschied) whether he had tried this “devilish drink”.
Merz: “Frankenwein or Franconian beer?” “Both mixed,” was the answer.

“It doesn’t bother us if the people of Munich make a fuss,” says Bernhard Sauer from the “Fränkische Bierstraße” brewers’ association.
In a large blind tasting in 2004, the Franconian beer clearly performed better than the Munich beer, he emphasizes.
“I almost expected it to be worse.”
But the politicians fared even worse.
In his biting speech, Schafroth accused Söder, Aiwanger & Co. of being partly responsible for the brutalization of public discourse through “verbal aggrandizement”.
Above all, the Free Voters boss got his fat off - there is enough material.
“Hubert is the political self-indulgent, a certain sharpness, but it often leads to blindness,” said Schafroth.

Aiwanger put on a good face when confronted with evil: “I almost expected it to be worse,” he said after the speech.
He doesn't see any mistakes on his part - "political traffic light maneuvers" such as the heating law must be "criticized accordingly".
