Excel breakdown, resignation
“Red in distress”: Linz a tough place for Babler
The red days of fate reached their finale on Friday. After resigning as chairman of the Linz SPÖ, Klaus Luger is also stepping down as mayor of the provincial capital. "This change of heart probably came overnight", explains Nikolaus Frings, "Krone" internal politics journalist, in an interview with Jana Pasching.
For Andreas Babler, the situation means "red in distress". "It comes at an absolutely inopportune time in the middle of the election campaign. If this had happened a year ago or a year from now, I don't think it would be quite the media sensation it is now." There are also repeated reports of plans to install Vienna City Councillor Peter Hanke as Babler's replacement after the election, reports Frings. But here, too, there is no consensus within the party.
Linz also does not seem to be a good place for Babler. "Although it often starts in Linz, but not really for him back then. We remember the party conference where Hans-Peter Doskozil was mistakenly chosen as SPÖ leader, at least for one day. Andreas Babler was then elected in Vienna and not in Linz. And Luger clearly declared his support for Doskozil at this party event just over a year ago - at least that's my recollection - and can also be assigned to a different camp within the party."
