Is the shadow of Bo Xilai hanging over the housing policy debate in Xi’s regime? One of those interesting reports by Nakazawa of @NikkeiAsia very different style than @FT @WSJ reporting on China. Focused on factions, cliques etc. asia.nikkei.com/Editor-s-Picks… https://t.co/pTKD6H1bwI

@BachmannRudi @DemaryMarkus Hi Rudi glaubst Du dass eine Preis-Lohn Spirale in der EZ wahrscheinlich ist?

Correcting my earlier tweet, as @BachmannRudi @mullansp pointed out, if 400k CDU members, had been given a say, this shift to Merz would likely have happened sooner. twitter.com/cleanenergywir…
