I hear he also feels his ad hoc communication style might go down better with the public than the rehearsed phrases of his predecessors, but he's also got a habit of making big statements and then doing the opposite or nothing.
thanks for the clarification of the nuances of the word 'Stadtbild'. I had seen references to Merz's comment on social media and didn't fully understand what he was really saying.
Maybe time for honesty, directness, and deliverable policies. Opaque comments serve no useful purpose. It made me think of the UK politician who said, this week I think, of essentially ethnically cleansing the UK to make it “culturally coherent”. An idiotic statement.
I think clear policies combined with a clear message as to what the aims of these policies are would be a sensible way forward, but discourse over such things really is tricky at the moment. There's a lot of fear on all sides, and that's not usually a recipe for level-headed debate.
