The good thing is, that the populist right-wing party AfD always called for the current government to shutdown and do a snap election and now, that it has „finally“ happened they seem to be struggling with this as they were caught completely unprepared. Many of their assemblies are timed to late to set up all the lists and other bureaucratic things and they need to reorganize quickly.
Germany was ruled by a coalition of three parties: The Social Democrats (SPD), the Greens (Die Grünen) and the Free Democrats (FDP wich are Neoliberals). Almost from Day 1 the FDP did their best to torpedo everything they could until our chancellor Olaf Scholz finally grew a spine and fired the Minister of finance and head of the FDP, Christian Lindner. This led to almost all other FDP-ministers resigning from their posts and thus the collapse of the coalition. Only the Minister of Transportation, Volker Wissing did not resign but left the FDP.
Out of the loop here. What happened in Germany?
The coalition split apart so they had to call for snap elections
