The AfD MPs lead the list of orders in the Bundestag. Beatrix von Storch is particularly striking.
AfD MP Beatrix von Storch has received the most order calls in the legislative period in the end of the legislative period. It was reprimanded in the Bundestag a total of 20 times due to verbal derailments. Among other things, she described the then President of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, Thomas Haldenwang, as “Strunzdumm”. Her party colleague Stephan Brandner lies on the same way, he also received 20 order calls, most recently he had referred to a journalist as a “fascist” and had to pay an order allowance of 50,000 euros.
The AfD also leads as a party at the Rügen in the Bundestag, it received two thirds of all orders. The data emerges from numbers from the documentation and information system for parliamentary materials. The member of the Bundestag Presidium, which heads the respective meeting, can issue orders.
The other parties also received order calls in 2021 to 2025. According to a report on the “picture”, there were a total of 138. In some cases, order money is also imposed. SPD man Michael Schrodi had to pay a fine of 1,000 euros for a difficult “verbal attack” around 2023. He roared through the plenary hall and loudly accused a CDU representative to do “with the fascists”. The background was a controversy around Minister of Economics Robert Habeck.
The Alliance Sahra Wagenknecht (BSW) said goodbye to the Bundestag with a scandal. Eight BSW MPs had an impact on the black-red financial package for an inadmissible protest during the debate about the black-red financial package. Vice President Petra Pau (left) thus punished the consequence of transparent with the inscription “1914 like 2025: No to war loans!”. Pau asked the MPs to remove the banners – “and quickly”.
The outgoing President of the Bonder Bärbel Bas had repeatedly called on the MPs to avoid personal attacks in the Bundestag. There were many injuries in the Corona period, said BAS.
All factions would have received more order calls than in the past, but at the top of the statistics, the AfD parliamentary group is. On social media, the agitation of the regulatory is considered that they are regarded as “trophies”. Because the ordinance calls are not less, it suggested that the regulatory measures to be tightened.
In order to take action against disorders and mobbing in the Bundestag, the Union wants to double and impose the possible penalty benefit for orders.
