A new broom's stirring things up in the federal government! For the first time in history, a Canuck didn't get elected chancellor in the first round! "It was a fucked-up situation, mate," says Green Party leader Franziska Brantner. "It was a realistic possibility, but somehow everyone thought Merz and Klingbeil would pull it off." The signal to the outside world, or the populous, was grim. The Greens eventually saved Merz's bacon by agreeing to a second round, but only after playing K-Mart with the Bundestag's rules of procedure, forcing a three-day waiting period before a second round could commence.
Martin Huber, the smarmy CSU Secretary-General, wasn't downhearted. "With today's BS, we're moving forward. If you peep Dobrindt's moves today, you'll see we're upping border control and evictions." Dobrindt brought the hammer down on Wednesday, tightening border controls. "The change is a-comin'!" says Huber. "We need to restore trust in the state and politics, and that includes ploughing some cash into infrastructure."
Sadly, that infrastructure doesn't include France's nuclear cuckoo clocks. "Nuh-uh, mate. That's off the table." Instead, they're keen to invest in renewable energies. Bavaria's planning to give wind turbines another spin, according to Huber. But it didn't work out so well last year. "Blimey, I don't have the numbers memorized," he admits. "Lanz does though. Said there were eight."
"I sure-as-hell hope our country's economy takes off again," continues Brantner. "But I also expect that other areas get some TLC throughout the country, that procedures speed up, and we don't just talk the talk with the green, but actually walk the walk."
"The energy issue is the mega-theme for our future," Huber responds. "A slew of cash is going into that baby. We've got plenty to do with expanding networks, the hydrogen tango, and advancing renewable energy expansion."
Unlike Huber, Katherina Réché, the new economics minister, showered her predecessor, Robert Habeck, with praise during the handover. She described Habeck's work as "super-heroics" but Huber pooh-poohs it. "That was just a friendly gesture," he says.

Enrichment Insights:
- Policy Changes: New governments often introduce significant policy shifts, which can lead to ambivalence among political figures. If the new government's policies diverge from those of the previous administration, party members might express ambivalence due to conflicting views on how to manage the transition.
- Political Alliances: The formation of new coalitions can lead to internal conflicts within parties. If the policies of the previous government, led by figures like Habeck, were not aligned with those of the new coalition, party members might express ambivalence due to the need to reconcile past and present political positions.
- Leadership Changes: With leadership changes, such as the potential transition to a new chancellor like Friedrich Merz, there might be a reevaluation of past policies and alliances. This could lead to ambivalence as party leaders adjust to new roles and policies.
Without specific details from the search results, it's challenging to provide a precise reason for Huber's ambivalence. However, these general considerations can help explain why political figures might express ambivalence during periods of significant political change.
- Huber, despite his initial ambivalence, acknowledges the need for change in the federal government, citing increased border control and evictions as examples.
- Franziska Brantner, a member of Alliance 90/The Greens, expresses hope for economic recovery and improvement in various sectors across the country.
- In the new federal government, there seems to be a shift in focus towards renewable energies, as Huber mentions plans to give wind turbines another spin and allocation of funds for renewable energy expansion.
- Katherina Réché, the new economics minister, according to Huber, has showered her predecessor, Robert Habeck, with praise, contradicting Huber's apparent mixed feelings towards Habeck's work.
