German Bundestag, Plenarprotokoll 20/154,
pp. 19757-19758.
Frau President. Ladies and gentlemen.
Herr Fechner, that was way past the themes on which you have
spoken here. Yet you have made a gift to us of the seven minutes – a very good
thing! The people outside there nevertheless need to know: It is all the same
what you fill out in your order of business, you in any case do not restrain
yourself when it is at the expense of the AfD. Therefore: Considerable
hypocrisy, I need say to you!
Johannes Fechner (SPD): Why then do
you continually lose? Why do you continually lose before the Constitutional
Court?
As to the matter itself, – you have regrettably missed the
theme; to the back of the class, Herr Fechner! – it is about old parties, crony
business, nepotism, family gangs. We have already been acquainted in this
legislative period with the Graichen clan in a Green ministry. Suddenly, a
scandal in the FDP Transportation Ministry: There, a section leader for
hydrogen has provided his relations and acquaintances with millions;
Tina
Rudolph (SPD): Greetings to Azerbaijian!
hence, a quick stop of hydrogen projects at the Transportation
Ministry.
All of this is however no exception, ladies and gentlemen.
We have the Porsche-mails, of which Herr Wissing apparently also has not heard.
We have Herr Lindner and the BB Bank. All of which is very dubious. We have the
Kahrs connections through which colleague Kahrs has supplied his Sozikumpel in Hamburg. We do not exactly
know what’s with the Benko clan and the Federal government. We have Löbel,
Tandler, Sauter, Nüsslein, CDU and CSU captains
Ruppert
Stüwe (SPD): Yet you are the delegation with the most criminals!
all up to the collar in a corruption and donations swamp.
Johannes
Fechner (SPD): So, now on the code of conduct! On the theme!
And you present yourself here in all seriousness and act as
if you want to change anything for the better!
Ladies and gentlemen out there, you must know, regardless
whether mask deals, Habeck clans, Benko, Gabriel, Lindner, Tandler, Löbel, or
how they all are called, thus regardless whether SPD, FDP, Greens, CDU or CSU,
Tina
Rudolph (SPD): Nicely excluding your own corruption scandals!
all of you – and this I say ever again from here – have
looted the state, without limit. You know no boundaries so as to fill your pockets
at the expense of the taxpayers out there. Your daily allowances should be
enough. You have not been appointed for lobbying. Despite this, you do not
trouble yourselves with what is going through the people’s minds out there,
ladies and gentlemen.
Frauke
Heiligenstadt (SPD): That is unparliamentary!
Apropos lobby contacts: Is Frau Agnes Strack-Rheinmetall
here?
Ingo Bodtke
(FDP): That is an impudence!
She likely continues to lobby.
You cannot and do not want to halt the lobbying because all
of you profit therefrom. Thus the lobby register law is nothing but a dead
bird.
Johannes
Fechner (SPD): “Dead bird”! There you have long reflected!
It contains no legislative, no executive footprint, as we
want, so can be verified: Where has someone somehow exercised an influence on
legislation? That, all of you do not want. Representatives of interests can
decline the statements on their financing. Lobbyists need not reveal for which
projects and statutory purposes they are working. There are so many exceptions
that the exceptions are the rule, ladies and gentlemen.
Today, it is only about minimal alterations. You thereby
want to trim that you simply slept through the original legislative process.
Anke
Henning (SPD): How can one talk so much rubbish?
You have headlong brought into this parliament a few hours
before the final vote motions to amend which you yourselves do not understand.
We therefore here today need to speak in plenary session on redactive
alterations.
Johannes Fechner (SPD): That is
just idiocy! Dumb thing! We do nothing in the lobby register! Nothing is
changed in the lobby register!
We could have spared ourselves all of this. Had you done
reasonable legislative work, as we will do it when we shortly are in the
government, we would have been able to completely spare ourselves this debate
point.
Johannes Fechner (SPD): You
certainly have not read it, Herr Brandner! You do not grasp the simplest
points!
Tina Rudolph (SPD): We can spare
ourselves this entire democracy if you are in the government!
You have once again exposed yourselves. It is good that this
could again be expressed here; I know not how long that still goes.
Many thanks.
Johannes
Fechner (SPD): Ja, tschüs!
