In Potsdam, the SPD and BSW have come together to form a new coalition, backed by their state executive committees. Despite this agreement, challenges loom as the state parliament debates crucial issues like daycare fees. The AfD is actively submitting motions, with both SPD and BSW united in opposition.
The coalition aims to maintain hospital locations, offer free kindergarten years, increase police numbers, curb illegal migration, and expand rail networks. Additionally, it seeks a diplomatic resolution to the Ukraine conflict. However, the BSW faces internal dissent, with member Hornauf threatening to oppose the coalition over concerns regarding the Arrow 3 deployment.
In a separate development, the CDU's proposal to shift construction projects for educational facilities to a different agency faces significant resistance. Concerns about budget management and staffing are at the forefront, with debates over the efficiency and impact of such changes.
Moreover, in Saxony, the CDU and AfD are neck-and-neck in recent polls, with BSW experiencing losses. This political landscape raises questions about the coalition's resilience and its ability to uphold its ideals amidst internal and external pressures.
