Bild: “Ms Merkel, we also want a referendum!”
In response to Greece’s proposed referendum, on its front page, Bild calls for the German people to get a say on whether they are willing to continue bailing out Greece. The paper argues, “No more billions for Greece, they should have the euro taken away from them.” A number of politicians from Chancellor Merkel’s sister party, the CSU, have also come out in favour of a referendum, including Secretary-General Alexander Dobrindt, who said that: “fundamental decisions on Europe’s future should become connected with referendums.” Separately, in an interview with Die Welt, FDP Secretary-General Christian Lindner said that he did not want his party to be “infiltrated by eurosceptics.”
