Drama in the AfD NRW: Power struggles and scandals threaten to blow up!
In North Rhine-Westphalia it bubbles tremendously within the AfD! The inner party power struggles stop at the end, while the party gets into turbulent waters. Led by Martin Vincentz, who has positioned itself as a moderate face of the AfD, the situation seems to be anything but stable. The public prosecutor is currently investigating Klaus Esser, the former vice -leader chairman in the Düsseldorf state parliament, due to documents for falsification. Esser is said to have pretended to be a lawyer and, for example, created manipulated memberships in the Düren district association, which already raises clear doubts about his integrity, such as blog of the Republic reported.
The nominations for direct candidates for the upcoming Bundestag election ensure additional tensions. In the constituency of Dortmund II Mattias Helferich, a controversial MP, who describes himself as a "friendly face of the NS" and is well networked on the state board. At the same time, there is an ongoing party exclusion procedure against him. Roger Beckamp, another member of the Bundestag and AfD chairman in the Committee on Housing and Urban Development, was also nominated in the Rhein-Sieg district II. Both candidates are in the crossfire of criticism because they are supposed to act against the state board. This refuses to confirm the confirmation for their candidacy, which only heats up the internal conflicts, as well as WDR reported.
radical currents are under pressure
Vincentz is trying to differentiate himself from the right -wing extremist currents within the party, which have continued to influence influence in Thuringia due to the inconsistencies in Thuringia. An exclusion of leading members of the youth organization "Junge Alternative", which is classified by the Federal Constitutional Protection as a right -wing extremist, shows that Vincentz does not shy away from taking hard measures. Nils Hartwig was excluded from the party, while an exclusion process was initiated against Elia Sievers after making controversy statements to deport a Yazidin. These developments hit the Wall of the AfD vigorously and raise the question of how long the party structures can endure the internal pressure.| Details | |
