Fall from Grace: Merkel s Conservatives Mired in Scandal and Incompetence

DER SPIEGEL Suche öffnen Fall from Grace Merkel s Conservatives Mired in Scandal and Incompetence Shameless deals for medical equipment, dubious foreign contacts and corona crisis mismanagement: Angela Merkel s conservatives are in bad shape as the election campaign looms. How did they lose their way? Link kopieren Armin Laschet, the newly anointed head of Germany s Christian Democratic Union (CDU), has been a politician for two-and-a-half decades. He knows how difficult it can be, and how quickly things can change. But even he might be getting a bit dizzy these days. Not even two months have passed since he was elected head of the country s largest, most powerful political party, essentially transforming him into the chancellor-in-waiting and designated successor to Chancellor Angela Merkel. What could possibly go wrong? After all, the coronavirus vaccines had arrived, signaling a path out of the pandemic. It looked like it would be a good year for him and the CDU.

Sleeper trains wake up to a new era in Europe

Advertisement London: In their heyday, hundreds of sleeper trains rattled across Europe and infiltrated popular culture along the way. In TS Eliot’s Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat, Skimble saunters into view just as the train is due to depart London for Glasgow before midnight. Alfred Hitchcock’s 1938 thriller The Lady Vanishes is set on a night train crossing the Continent. So is Agatha’s Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express. And James Bond gets into a spot of bother on board the same train in From Russia With Love. But the rise of high-speed rail and budget airlines derailed sleeper carriages in the 1980s and 1990s, and governments across western Europe slowly wound back services.
