BERLIN - Germany’s Social Democrats saved their loudest cheers at their conference this week for the 30-year old leader of the party’s youth wing, as he called for more radical labor and social policies and for the SPD to believe in itself.
The SPD’s share of the vote in Germany slumped to its lowest level since 1933 two years ago and the party, which is in coalition with Chancellor Angela Merkel, is now at around 14% in the polls, trailing the Greens and conservatives and the far-right Alternative for Germany . Delegates laughed, clapped and stood during Kuehnert’s speech on Friday in which he argued for improved conditions for workers and end to low pay, a more ambitious climate agenda and for Germany to lead in Europe.
“His speech was the best, he mobilizes young people and he’s smart - he is the person everyone is talking about,” said a 59-year old delegate from Bavaria who declined to be named.
