The FPÖ has presented its election program. This is clearly aimed at attracting middle-class voters. Party leader Herbert Kickl once again promises that there will be no new taxes, he focuses on security, the "performance principle" and the family as the heart of Freedom Party politics.

If the Freedom Party comes first in the National Council elections, they will probably only have the ÖVP as a possible coalition partner. With the program presented today entitled "Fortress Austria. Fortress Freedom" presented today, the FPÖ is not only making an offer to middle-class voters, it is also providing the ÖVP with starting points for possible government cooperation.

It focuses on tax cuts, savings in the social system and the principle of performance - in the workplace as well as in schools.

The Austrian family with a liberal chancellor as a good family man should flourish and be able to develop its potential in Fortress Austria, Fortress Freedom.

There is also a great deal of overlap in the areas of transport, migration and climate protection. The Freedom Party is against restrictions on private transport and in favor of a no to the ban on combustion engines. They want to abolish the CO2 tax, significantly reduce the NoVA and impose strict penalties for "climate stickers".

When it comes to climate protection, the FPÖ is in favor of "responsible action and new technologies" and against green "prohibition mania and state re-education taxes" such as the CO2 tax.

Like the ÖVP, the FPÖ also wants to ban gender stereotyping from the public sphere. It should also be enshrined in the constitution that there are only two genders. They want no drag queens in kindergartens and schools and an end to "early sexualization".

FPÖ also targets immigrants
The FPÖ promises to fight political Islam and advocates remigration. Asylum should only be granted on a temporary basis. Like Heinz-Christian Strache in the past, Kickl is also focusing on the voices of immigrants. He is explicitly addressing all those who have come to Austria, who have become locals and love the country. These people should not be mixed up with those "intruders" who only want to take advantage of our country.

These intruders want to harm us, endanger our security and our prosperity.

Direct democracy should be expanded, says the FPÖ and raises eyebrows with a questionable idea: The people should be given the opportunity to recall an incompetent government or incompetent members of government - a motion of no confidence by the people. In terms of procedure, it should be designed in the same way as the popular initiative. The FPÖ is calling for compensation for all coronavirus damage and a full amnesty and repayment for all coronavirus penalties.
