criticism

It is doubted that if there is little participation in parliamentary group and committee meetings, “under these circumstances, decisions in the interests of one's own constituency” can be influenced at all. The Volksstimme from Magdeburg reported in the course of the replacement of the post of Landtag President, which had become vacant by Hardy Peter Güssau through resignation, for which Bönisch had applied within the faction , that he had "slept through the sessions" and that the "frequent absence [was] a popular blasphemy topic" been.
