Around six weeks before the European elections on June 9, the election campaign – for example by the SPD and CSU – and the mailing of election notifications have begun in Germany. This time, the ballot paper also includes names that are otherwise more familiar from climate strikes. The „Last Generation“ climate movement, for example, wants to „finally bring the resistance into Parliament“, says spokesperson Carla Hinrichs, and that is why the movement is running in the elections for the European Parliament. Lena Johnsen and Theodorr Schnarr are their lead candidates.
