At the Ö3 Christmas Miracle, Vice Chancellor Werner Kogler explained what his role looks like at Christmas and why he is happy with the singing ban.
As soon as “Mr. President” played the last sounds of Coco Jamboo, Ö3 host Andreas Knoll introduced Vice Chancellor and Greens boss Werner Kogler on Wednesday. “Boss is always brave,” Kogler said, explaining that the Greens are a broad movement that doesn’t have a boss. The Sports Minister explains that he only cautiously rocked the previous song with a footballer injury.
Moderator Knoll asks the Vice Chancellor how much time he currently has and how many appointments the politician has to complete. Kogler claims he still has Christmas Eve to do because he would also appear on ORF on Thursday. However, Kogler takes it sportily: “We are not there to complain, not even in Advent.” But it is already the case that other members of the family contribute more to the festival than he does: “You have to be so honest.”
Quick test becomes routine
Talking about Christmas at home. Green’s veteran explains that he will visit his extra mother and that otherwise the festival will also be held in a “very small circle.” All family members would undergo a test, which has now become a routine for the vice chancellor. Expect many people in Austria to behave similarly.
The fact that this time the Christmas carols did not bother Kogler in any way, on the contrary. He jokes that he benefits from this regulation because he is “not only a bad dancer, but also a bad singer.” For the Christmas holidays, Kogler plans to use the cell phone on December 25 and 26. To put it off, he had agreed with Federal Chancellor Kurz, he was chatting very secretly from the sewing box.
The government gave Christmas presents. On the ÖVP’s side there were cookies and gingerbread, “really first class,” says Kogler as anything but a foodie. The Greens would have given him sweets and spices on the other side. So that it becomes “sparkling and hot, spicy and sweet,” “like government work.” In the end, Kogler apologizes for the “sin” of not selecting an immediate Christmas carol. The 59-year-old is convinced that John Lennon’s “Imagine” also has “big stuff” beyond the Christmas period.
