Occasional walks in green area of Schmelz proved to be useful, because there I observed sheets of papers fixed to the lampposts. It was announcement of upcoming meeting with FPÖ leader H.Strache, and no additional info was available on Internet.
Around nine o’clock today Strache appeared in the gateway of Schutzhaus restaurant.
The private gathering, presented mostly by retired persons greeted him admirably.

Strache is extremely good-looking blue-eyed man with trim figure.
Once when I photographed him in Graz two years ago, something in his posture reminded me of Mussolini, how Duce was depicted by old film chronics.
Perhaps, sex with such a person could be enjoyable performance.
I heard Strache promised he would occupy Vienna mayor post after new elections in 2010.
I wanted to understand what makes Strache rather popular among Austrians.
May be popularity is something one can not control, but only constant years-long work gives chance to this miracle to happen.
As anybody else collecting political information, I come across constant reports about activities of Strache. One can sense his vibes.
What can be hardly said about others.
For example, when I lived in Graz I had impression that all Austria was dark red. Red as tomato.
Nowadays I hear nothing of persons who shared their incomes with poor to get chairs and corresponding salaries in Landtag.

News: Joerg Haider removed three more asylum seekers from Carinthia on Tuesday night in an operation that was kept secret from his colleagues in the federal government.

Haider and his party (BZÖ) have been at odds with the federal government Interior Minister Maria Fekter on this issue and are continuing their highly controversial policy to remove criminal asylum seekers from the province.

Three asylum seekers who had committed a crime were refused further accommodation and food by the Carinthian provincial government on Tuesday before being taken over the provincial border with Styria by bus, on route to Traiskirchen refugee camp in Lower Austria.

The asylum seekers are two Armenians aged 14 and 43 and a 44-year-old Chechen. The two Armenians are father and son. The father is accused of having threatened someone with a knife. In the case of the Chechen man, the offense is about drug trafficking. (more…)

Haider was a long-time leader of the Austrian Freedom Party (FPÖ). When he stepped down as party’s chairman in 2000, he remained its major figure until 2005. In April 2005 he founded a new party, the “Alliance for the Future of Austria” (BZÖ-Bündnis Zukunft Österreich)

Joerg Haider was born in 1950 in Bad Goisern, Upper Austria. His father Robert Haider worked as a shoemaker, his mother Dorothea Rupp was a teacher.

Both parents were active members of the Nazi Party. Robert Haider joined the ‘Hitler Jugend’ when he was fifteen. In 1933, after Nazi organisations were banned in Austria, he participated in several illegal actions. In 1934 he took part in the failed nazi putsch and was forced to flee to Bavaria, where he joined the nazi party. (more…)
