When making the announcement, Wlazny, who achieved a certain level of fame as bandleader Marco Pogo, relied entirely on message control. He addressed the seers on the streams directly and did not allow any questions on the spot. For example, it remained unclear how many members the beer party now has, what its current budget looks like, who Wlazny’s colleagues are and what content they are relying on.
There could be more in the next media tidbit from the Beer Party campaign. At a press appearance on May 8th there should be “more faces” to see and questions should be allowed.
Wlazny used his appearance on Tuesday to once again advertise for membership in his movement: “We hear what you discuss at the regulars’ table,” he addressed the voters. People may be dissatisfied with politicians, but not dissatisfied with politics.
Wlazny actually wanted to have 20,000 members or a budget of 1.2 million by the end of April in order to secure a run in the National Council election. Today he emphasized that more than half of the financing goal had been achieved. He expects further support from today’s announcement.
The Beer Party leader suspected that the fact that he was running would cause “gasps” in the other party headquarters. Because what his party does gets a response. This gives us energy to face the challenges ahead.
In the last three months, a reform movement has “virtually sprouted up.” In almost all federal states there have been events from which regular meetings have developed: “And from every regular meeting ideas arise that we process.” This content would be incorporated while at the same time the party’s structures would be expanded: “We are continuing to expand our menu.”
After a good five minutes, the matter, which Wlazny disputed in a decidedly casual manner in a T-shirt and with his dialect, was settled again.
