Overview
- An AfD strategy paper confirmed by party officials requires state and federal MPs from Rhineland-Palatinate to establish a local meeting point in their district.
- Noncompliant MPs must pay a mid–three‑digit sum each month into a party fund, with the state board then tasked with setting up the site.
- The plan was adopted by the state conference and targets one hub per electoral district by 2029.
- The paper outlines low‑threshold offerings such as food stands, themed evenings, and senior cafés to draw residents to reopened village pubs or similar venues.
- The SPD criticized the initiative as unoriginal, with Bundestag manager Dirk Wiese calling it copy‑and‑paste from existing local outreach.
