Kiel (dpa / lno) - The SPD politician Ralf Stegner calls for a ban on paid lobbying work for members of the federal and state levels.

In addition, the mandate for the parliamentarians must be the focus of their work, said the Kiel parliamentary group leader and long-time SPD federal vice-president on Thursday of the German press agency.

The background is the involvement of the Bundestag members Georg Nüßlein (CSU) and Nikolas Löbel (CDU) in business related to the purchase of corona protective masks.

"Such amigo affairs not only harm the party from which they started," said Stegner, who is running for the Bundestag in September.
