A lesson in black favorites and self -service! “

The most recent court decision, according to which the ÖVP senior citizens’ association is not formally considered part of the People’s Party and is therefore said to have legally obtained corona grants in the millions, relegated the systematic self-service of the ÖVP relentlessly. This was criticized today FPÖ general secretary NABG. Christian Hafenecker, MA: “This is the ÖVP system in pure culture: You found clubs that are only separated from the party on paper, but actually serve as money procurement machines for the black power apparatus. If you are caught, you simply name a partial organization, and the million -dollar grip in the pockets of taxpayers is legalized again. Hafenecker.

In this context, the FPÖ general secretary reminded of a clear pattern of the ÖVP: from the massive overall election campaign costs to the subsequent amendment to the party law in order to withdraw threatening fines. “We see a method here. Whether in the record debts, the exploding campaign costs or now with the Corona granting: The ÖVP acts according to the motto: ‘The rules apply to everyone, just not to take responsibility, legal point of view and gaps in the law are exhausted to the extreme to eliminate responsibility and to feed your own apparatus,” explained, ” Hafenecker.

It is significant that the assessments of the Court of Auditors and the independent Party Transparency Senate (UPTS) are simply ignored as soon as a formal juristic angle secure the continued existence of the black favorite system. Hafeneck emphasized: “This is not about a criticism of the courts, but about the moral deprivation of a system, the formal-legal tricks about the decency and political responsibility, while the Austrians groaned under the inflation, the ÖVP network puts millions of funding that would never be granted. Return taxpayers! “

In conclusion, the FPÖ general secretary demanded consequences: “This self-service shop at the expense of the Austrians must finally end. It needs full transparency and a policy that serves the people and not the favorite of a party. With a folk chancellor Herbert Kickl, this black swamp of the favorite economy and disguise is pushed up for all times!”
