Political comeback
Strache wants to run in the 2025 Vienna elections
Former Vice-Chancellor and ex-FPÖ party leader Heinz-Christian Strache, who most recently worked as a management consultant and sold PV systems with a partner, is planning a political comeback. He wants to run in the 2025 elections for Vienna's provincial and municipal councils.
The fact that Vienna, which he "loves so much", is increasingly degenerating into a soulless "average city" and that more and more residents of the federal capital are "feeling more and more alienated" in their home city has encouraged him to get back into the political ring in next year's Vienna elections, he announced in a press release on Tuesday.
Aiming to enter the Vienna state parliament
"I have recently been contacted by many citizens and also some interesting personalities who would like to see a proper and edgy opposition in Vienna. We will therefore not only try to defend the seats of our hard-working Vienna Team HC district councillors," the former FPÖ leader, who stumbled across the Ibiza affair, is quoted as saying.
The aim of Team HC Strache Vienna is to enter the Vienna state parliament in order to "finally secure a powerful opposition with a clear, liberal foundation of values" in the federal capital, according to Strache. He and his team want to "make Vienna a safe and liveable city again."
Failed at the five percent hurdle in 2020
In the Vienna elections in October 2020, Strache's team only received 3.6 percent of the votes cast, clearly missing the five-percent hurdle and thus also the entry into the city parliament. Team HC emerged from the "Alliance for Austria" (DAÖ) party, which was founded by three former FPÖ members of the Vienna City Council and state parliament, led by Karl Baron.
