Indeed, at the tipping point of the crisis, one would expect the government to offer a substantial perspective on how things will continue economically and what is really hidden behind the many sandwiches of digital and ecological change. Even the EU, often scolded for its slowness, appears to be moving faster than Austria: it currently demands specific projects from states so that the EU can spend billions on reconstruction aid. The deadline for registrations in Brussels is April 30. Turquoise green cannot yet name a single project out of the three billion reserved for Austria. Also from the Greens only eco-prose intervenes.
This will not work with the reboot after the crisis.
In theory, ÖVP and green, economy and ecology, are the right combination for this moment. But there are growing doubts as to whether the two sides can really achieve the fundamental decisions that are now required.
In any case, the political energies flow in a completely different direction. The ÖVP attacks the judiciary with such vehemence that one can only astonish. She stops at nothing: not in the public prosecutor’s offices, they should somehow take the lead. Not in front of the constitutional judges; in the future they should have to justify their voting behavior. And not in front of the media, they should be punished if they report “excessively” about the investigations.
You can talk about any judicial reform and Germany is undoubtedly a good example. But the timing is doubly wrong: First, judicial reform will be devalued if it is presented as a punishment for insubordination. And secondly, the Crown’s job, economy and precaution now require the full attention of politics for the acute post-pandemic phase.
