Keeping track of the complete madness that permeates German politics is a full-time job that could dominate a life. Daily there are new indications of collective insanity in central Europe. Here are just a few:
Interior Senator Iris Spanger (SPD)
1. Interior Senator Iris Spanger has arrived at a solution to the increase of stabbings in Germany, 3,482 occurring last year. In Berlin police recorded 2,650 knife attacks by the end of October. Of these 2,650 cases, 1,026 were threats - a category that traditionally accounts for the largest proportion of knife attacks. In addition, 826 robberies were committed with a knife. However, the increase in particularly serious crimes is worrying: 781 knives were used to cause dangerous and serious bodily harm, which represents a significant increase compared to the 633 cases ten years ago.She and a group of experts have concluded that this violent crime wave could be ended by suspending the driver's license of a person found guilty of six knife offenses in a 24 month period.
2. Adding together both federal and state sources Germany has spent over 266 million euros subsidizing the development of computer video games.
3. Berlin chief of police Barbara Slowik advises Jews and gays to avoid certain areas of the city due to violence from migrants.
4. German economic minister Robert Habeck filed a complaint with police that someone had called him "an idiot" on an X posting, one of 805 complaints he has made. It resulted in a dawn raid on the man's home and confiscation of his electronic devices.
