Pressure is growing from the opposition in the Saxon state parliament on the minority coalition of CDU and SPD. As the coalition is ten votes short of its own majority, it is dependent on the cooperation of the Left, the Greens and the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW). These three parliamentary groups have repeatedly made their voices heard with amendments. Now the Left and the Greens have followed suit.
The Greens took Christopher Street Day in Dresden as an opportunity to call for more money for equal opportunities, acceptance of sexual and gender diversity and anti-discrimination projects: they are to be increased by 1.2 million to a total of 4 million euros in the coming year.
