Herbert Kickl is back – Diepresse.com
Herbert Kickl stood shortly before the Chancellery – and is now only opposition politician. What does that do with his party? And how do the freedoms do it now? An evening at the political Ash Wednesday of the blue in Ried.
Jahnturnhalle in Ried im Innkreis, two years ago. Herbert Kickl, elected as the new FPÖ chief one and a half years earlier, held the main speech for the first time in the blue political Ash Wednesday, since Jörg Haider vehicles for traditional all-round strikes against everything and everyone. And whether he had put it on the debut or not, Kickl's speech caused massive vertebrae and even employed the public prosecutor. The new FPÖ boss insulted among other Federal President Alexander Van der Bellen, namely as a « senile mummy ».
Herbert Kickl is back in Ried almost exactly two years and a win in the National Council election later. And at first glance everything seems to be here. Around two thousand blue have come to give themselves hearty political attacks in beer and brass music. Hard cheese, rolling mops, potato cheese and so on, you can see many freedom in traditional costume, quite a few with embroidered federal eagles on knitting vests. The moderator, Member of the National Council Lisa Gubik, speaks of « sensational atmosphere at our legendary Ash Wednesday in the Jahnturnhalle » that evening, « which is nothing for political fabric softeners ».
Blue Evergreens on Ash Wednesday
The evening was still young, Upper Austria's Vizelandeshauptman Manfred Haimbuchner made it clear what – once again – once again – once again: « This meeting is the opposite of Wokeness, Marxism, LGBTIQ and refugee clapping, here in the Jahnturnhalle the freedom! » On the other hand, it has to be determined, according to Haimbuchner, « because there are people who have a zipferl, and believe that they are a woman ». It is knitted against other parties, the media and « the system of the left ». When Kickl and Haimbuchner made their way to the stage when moving in, music boomed, freedoms marched behind them, the FPÖ flags waved.
But it is not everything as always on this Ash Wednesday.
