Readers' question

Is party funding too high?

Particularly generous funding in times of extreme inflation: at federal level, parties, parliamentary clubs and party academies will receive 66.7 million euros this year.

User namretla would like to discuss this question with the Krone community. The funding of political parties is a complex issue that has a significant impact on the functioning of our democracy. How do you rate this support? 

While party funding is seen as necessary to ensure a diverse range of parties and thus create a vibrant political landscape, there is also criticism of the existing models.

Everyone has to save money. Did we all cause the debt? Can we perhaps save on party funding? That would add up to a pretty penny at, say, ten percent.
