Ole
von Beust, CDU, has done it again... He won the Hamburg Elections on
the 29th Feb with style and was welcomed with chants of Olé,
Olé, Olé, Olé, Olé, Olé, cheers and
clapping in CCH (Congress Centrum Hamburg) this evening. The CDU will
be able to govern with an absolute majority. The elections results show
that the CDU won for local, rather than national reasons - a case of
personality. Hamburg will profit from a non-coalition government and
it should be good for local and international business, regardless of
who won

Action
was the right word! We were told by NDR 90,3 Radio, that it is worth
going just to see the journalists and photographers pushing and shoving
each other - we were not disappointed! Each popular politician was encircled
by bodyguards, they were in turn encircled by shouting, pushing and
shoving journalists - signs, boards, lighting and anything in the way,
went flying... cameras were ripped out of hands, cables tangled and
microphones were pushed into faces... chaos is a good description. All
the familiar faces were there, politicians and news readers from NDR,
ARD, HH-1, ZDF, N-TV, Bayern Regional, RTL and Pro 7 to name a few.
Each TV and radio station had its own studio - the studios were in various
rooms and on two open plan floors. The ZDF studio was by far the best

The
rush was amazing as the CDU's Ole von Beust, Schill and Thomas Mirow
appeared at different times, but after a while the reporters and cameramen
lost interest in Schill and Thomas Mirow and chased Ole von Beust from
TV studio to TV studio and then out of the door. He then left to go
to the Fish Auction Halls, where the party was waiting - in both senses
of the word. We heard that the N-TV studio was flattened in CCH, but
did not see it
