Strache wants to surprise in Vienna election
Strache's confidence is based on his own poll numbers, which he claims show a potential of seven percent. At the beginning of the campaign, they were at three percent. "I am optimistic that we will have a reason to celebrate on April 27," he expressed confidently. Unlike the last election, they are much better prepared this time and also have the opportunity to campaign on the streets, which was not possible in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Strache criticizes FPÖ - Cooperation with Nepp after Vienna election conceivable
Although he criticized his successor as Vienna FPÖ chairman, Dominik Nepp, he did not rule out cooperation in the event of entering the municipal council. "I don't argue," said Strache, "where there are common interests, we will of course work together." Competition also stimulates. The expense affair, in which Strache is still being investigated, is not seen by him as an obstacle. It is a matter of "old hats" that are sufficiently documented. "Everything that was privately attributed to me, I have paid for."
Strache criticizes the FPÖ for their alleged pandering to the Turkish community. The "Nepp-FPÖ" has "taken the wrong turn" in many areas, he finds. "This needs to be worked out." Unlike today's Vienna Freedom Party, he, Strache, is "with the people." "Yes, I will be an unpleasant political companion," he announced in the event of entering. Many would go to the polling booth on Sunday "with their fists in their pockets." "The cuddling phase will be over when the 'Team HC Strache' enters the municipal council," the top candidate announced.
In terms of content, Strache continues to focus on the issue of security and calls for a dedicated security city councilor based on the model of former New York Mayor and later Donald Trump's lawyer, Rudy Giuliani. Strache also wants to establish a separate Vienna city police. Police containers must also be positioned at hotspots, "there needs to be a fair and tough approach by the executive."
