4. Uhm... has Kettle even looked at the SPD's reforms?
Even the economist seems to have quite a different opinion.

Someone has to explain to me, since when introducing the UK healthcare system (albeit in a private variation) and flat tax is "true to inclusive social-market principles". She's a self-styled moderate, but her cabinet picks are US-style neocons.

Also, the fact is that Merkel does not have the standing in her own party to really bring new reforms underway; she is far more likely to lead the country back to the Kohl stagnation (after a few acts to reduce worker's rights).

Sorry, to say so, but Kettle is a idiot. And yes, labour is "right" in supporting her: "right", as in "not left".
