    We need more people like this in politics. People who know the fear of prejudice and discrimination.

    How you can trust politicians... He collected his votes as Markus Ganserer from the Green party, looking completely different, presenting the interests and promises of the Green party.. Changed his priorities since elected, you can see it on his FB page, works on different things in government now. What about those promises that people elected him for...
