Rendi threatens SPÖ rebels with consequences

After the hustle surrounding the member poll, the SPÖ chief also ruled out the consequences for internal critics.

SPÖ chief Pamela Rendi-Wagner described in the ORF’s “press hour” on Sunday the SPÖ forces who had questioned the outcome of the vote of confidence as “quite destructive”. This approach “is not understandable” and “does not advance the part”. But there are only “a few who are like this”. In the Corona crisis, he called for an economic stimulus package and property taxes.

“Now obviously there are some in the SPÖ who interpret their political action in such a way that it is quite destructive,” said Rendi-Wagner. But the “good news” says that “it is a small group, a few that are like that. The people they talk to here are not the SPÖ. The SPÖ are the thousands of officials who run every day,” said the leader of the match.

Rendi-Wagner also has not ruled out the consequences for internal critics. When asked if this did not border on detrimental behavior for the party, which could have consequences, up to the expulsion from the party, the SPÖ leader said: “There are many questions that I will address (…) This question will also be answered we have to face. “

The criticism “often occurs under the guise of anonymity, that’s not fair.” The same thing happened before Christmas “when rumors of my resignation were spread by this or a similar group.” Here they also ask the media for sensitivity in the reports. Because one had “seen again and again that these rumors are wrong.” Critics are known in part at the party, Rendi-Wagner said. “This group is not good for our party.”

Satisfied with the result

Politics is still satisfied with the result of its vote of confidence of a good 71 percent. She does not want to compare that to a party convention vote that 29 percent of the votes cast were directed against her. “You can, or have to, judge that differently than a vote of the officials at a party convention.” During his free skating to the party leader in November 2018 in Wels, he received 97.8 percent of the votes from delegates at the party conference. The result of the member survey, which is now available, will be rated “additive to”. “This is an order for me.”

To combat the crown crisis, the SPÖ chief called “press time” the “largest stimulus package the Second Republic has ever seen,” an online solidarity tax for big internet companies like Amazon in the amount of ten percent and the implementation of the well-known SPÖ model for property taxes of 0.5 percent for assets of one million euros. Austrian Airlines would have to be rescued, but this is only conceivable with the participation of the state. Full nationalization is possible, but unrealistic, he said.

In addition, Rendi-Wagner also referred to the SPÖ demand for a 35-hour work week with the same wages. The company had to receive support in a transition phase.
