Hearty political sweeping: protests and festivities for Ash Wednesday!
This Wednesday of today's political Ash Wednesday will be hot in Austria. The FPÖ chairman Herbert Kickl expects around 2,000 guests in the Jahnturnhalle in Ried for the traditional herring feast. After the failed coalition talks with the ÖVP, Kickl will take the opportunity to tune his supporters on the upcoming challenges, as Kleine Zeitung . This event is particularly accompanied by the "Grandmas against Right", which will draw attention to themselves with a protest and music by Sardar Kobani and the "Blonden Engel" in the Ried Chamber of Labor.
In the meantime, a different event will take place in Kobenz, led by SPÖ boss Max Lercher, who expects over 500 guests from 6.30 p.m. Even if Lercher's speech is equipped with pointed statements, it usually remains less sharp than that of Kickl, as vienna.at . However, a protest against the SPÖ event is not to be expected, which shows that political Ash Wednesday polarizes.Both events are part of a tradition that is firmly anchored in Austrian politics and represents a striking highlight in the political annual curve. In Ried, the focus is on the FPÖ and dealing with the government, while in Kobenz the SPÖ tries to position itself in the shadow of political turmoil. The coming hours promise to become exciting when politicians present their positions and visions for the future.
