Good evening,


free beer for everyone:

a good idea, especially in summer.

But is that politics?

The nine-euro ticket is popular, in June alone the RMZ sold 900,000 such tickets, but is it wise to sell off the local transport service in the long run?

Shouldn't the money rather flow into the infrastructure?

Politicians are fiercely discussing a successor solution.

In its commentary, the Rhein-Main-Zeitung reached a skeptical verdict.

Corona for everyone:

The incidence figures say less and less because people are less likely to be tested.

However, the Barmer replacement fund reports: In mid-July, twice as many insured persons in Hesse were reported sick because of a corona infection as in mid-June.

The pandemic isn't over yet, really.

Summer for everyone:

The Rhein-Main-Zeitung presents seven places where you can enjoy the hot days, including the Kupferbergterrasse in Mainz.

And

what's more, ride-sharing opportunities are very popular, especially in times of rising fuel prices, colleague Petra Kirchhoff reports on her own experiences and gives an overview of the market +++ the Oetker Foundation is moving to the Main and maybe bringing Rudolf-August Oetker's art collection with it, eh Florian Balke found out +++ the ban on grilling and smoking is still being disregarded in the Mönchsbruchwald despite the greatest risk of fire.
