Disarray in BSW Camp: Inside the Storm Over MP Hornauf's Actions

Potential penalties for Representative Hornauf after counsel from BSW - Discussion on Penalties for Member Hornauf by BSW

Hey there! Let's talk politics, Brandenburg style. The BSW coalition faction is in a pickle, about to discuss their controversial MP, Sven Hornauf, and his voting antics. Criticism has been mounting as Hornauf often veers off the coalition's course.

Even the SPD, their coalition partner, has raised an eyebrow, urging BSW alliance leader Sahra Wagenknecht to assess potential consequences for Hornauf. Last week, during the Interior Committee vote on the draft budget, Hornauf chose to abstain, causing the plan to miss a majority.

So, what's next for Hornauf? A reckoning, perhaps?

A spokesperson for the BSW state parliament faction remained cryptic, only confirming a discussion on the matter in the near future. In the morning, the SPD's parliamentary business manager, Ludwig Scheetz, told dpa, "The BSW is called upon to create clarity on this." He went on to add, "It's problematic when an MP constantly goes off course."

Interestingly, the lack of a voting majority in the Interior Committee didn't disrupt the budget procedure significantly. The parliament is set to vote on the state budget for 2025 and 2026 in June, where the SPD and BSW, with a slim majority of two votes in the state parliament, will cast their votes.

BSW state parliamentarian Hornauf found himself in hot water in December 2024, when a motion for his expulsion was proposed. His disagreement with Minister President Dietmar Woidke (SPD) over the deployment of the Arrow 3 missile defense system at the Holzdorf air base led to this tension. More recently, in February, Hornauf backed a motion by the AfD, despite opposition motions usually being rejected. At the time, it was stated that the expulsion procedure against Hornauf would not be restarted immediately.

Brandenburg's political landscape is rife with tension, thanks to budget squabbles and potential cuts affecting various sectors. This may lead to public or political outcry against MPs perceived as backing controversial decisions. While specific consequences for Hornauf are yet to be seen, any MP linked to unpopular policies could face criticism or political repercussions.

Now, let's talk about the BSW itself - a political alliance in Brandenburg's Landtag that's been in the spotlight due to a controversial budget proposal, which some say could lead to political pressure on any MP, including Hornauf, should they align with the alliance's stance on these issues. Furthermore, the BSW has raised concerns about budget cuts affecting institutions like the Medizinische Hochschule Brandenburg, which may add to the political pressure on their MPs [1][2].

Keep an eye on this developing situation! We'll be updating you as more information becomes available. Until then, stay curious and stay informed! 🤘
