Anyone who spoke to members of the Bundestag on Wednesday met seriously annoyed people.

The representatives of the people felt bullied.

For days they had been inundated with criticism of the “Civil Protection Act”, which is supposed to finally put the restrictions in the corona pandemic on a broader legal basis and which was passed in the early afternoon.

Thousands of identical protest mails clogged the mailboxes, boxes of letters arrived, the telephones were paralyzed, and the MPs even feared a siege of the Reichstag by so-called “lateral thinkers”.

The right bully us - this is the complaint of the parliamentarians.

But that's not true.
