Criticism mounts that Germany's Union bloc blocks reform

Original: „Die wahren Bremser sitzen in der # union . Das ist Angst vor der eigenen Verantwortung, Angst vor der # lobby Angst vor

German commentators are accusing the CDU/CSU of being the real obstacle to reform, saying the party fears taking responsibility and bows to lobbying interests rather than making real decisions. The criticism ties into frustration over the lack of a sugar tax and stalled government work under Chancellor Merz, with calls to stop hoping for miracles from the coalition.

Why now: Frustration with the German government's stalled reform agenda, including a disputed sugar tax, is prompting debate over who is blocking progress.
