CDU lead, Friedrich Merz, has refused to back down from supporting a national security law, merely because the AfD delivered the votes needed for a majority.

This is the first time, on the national level, that this has happened.

Kanzler Scholz publicly shamed him for it, but Merz seemed to remain unperturbed and the vote standards.

*stands* sorry. I really write this stuff, myself. 😅

Interesting.

What do you think of this? Is it positive?

Of course. It has been impossible to pass any conservative-leaning policies (or form a conservative-leaning government, but that's still Zukunftsmusik), because the Democratic Wall (the policy of only supporting bills that don't require the AfD votes to pass) meant that nothing that came from the right majority could pass because the left minority only voted for their own stuff.

That's why the population voted right over and over, but the politics stayed left.

thats how democracy should work and not loud minorities

Germanys politics is no different to a sitcom.

Watching it behind the alps. Safe distance 🍿
