Saxony's Left Party can count on vocal support in the election campaign. Singer-songwriter Konstantin Wecker speaks out in favor of top candidate Susanne Schaper. "We are once again living in times when we really have to pay attention: More and more countries, cities, municipalities and regions in Europe are being ruled by fascists and racists. And more and more conservatives are making pacts with right-wing parties to maintain their own power," reads a statement by Wecker. "Each and every individual and all of us together must therefore get involved now to keep democracy alive." This requires courageous people - also in parliaments.
Wecker praised Schaper for her commitment. "As a trained nurse, she is committed to a solidarity-based healthcare system for all people, is a strong advocate for the hospice movement, for international solidarity, social justice for all people and is active against fascism." He will not stop dreaming of a "world free of domination, war and fascism, a world without borders, patriarchy, racism, oppression and the exploitation of people and nature."
