Bianca Szygula takes over management: The left Lübeck has a double top again!

An exciting turning point for the Lübeck left! After four and a half years of standstill, the party finally has a co-district chairman again. Bianca Szygula, a 51-year-old commercial employee, was elected unanimously last weekend. This marks a significant return to a double top that has not been occupied since March 2020. "I am very happy that Bianca Szygula ran as chair and was unanimously elected," said long -time party leader Andreas Müller. Szygula brings a breath of fresh wind: the membership growth in the party has increased significantly lately, while the proportion of women has increased from 25 to 40 percent. These new impulses are crucial because the left is preparing for the upcoming winter election campaign and would like to expand its social offers.

strong positioning in local politics

In addition, Szygula was also chosen for the Bundestag election at the State Representative Assembly. This is done in the context of a determined agenda for the Lübeck local elections, in which priority issues such as social housing, public transport and poverty control are on the agenda. Party colleague Katjana Zunft, who also has a parliamentary group leader, underlined the role of the left in local politics: "We have shown during this parliamentary term that we can make pragmatic but also consistent social politics."

DIE LINKE Lübeck aims to collect back into the citizens in the upcoming election and has dealt with the concerns of citizens, especially in times of crisis such as Corona pandemic or the current energy crisis. "Politics must be made for humans and not for profits of corporations," said guild and Müller, emphasizing that the party also wants to represent the voice of those who are often overlooked, such as the middle class, which is increasingly threatened by poverty. Together they work on the vision of a fairer and more inclusive society in Lübeck.
