Birger Lüssow (born January 19, 1975 in Rostock ) is a German politician ( NPD ) and neo-Nazi . From September 2006 to September 2011 he was a member of the state parliament of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania .

education

Lüssow attended comprehensive school until 1990 and then grammar school until 1993. In 1994/95 he did his basic military service in the Bundeswehr . In 1996 he began training as a power electronics technician, which he completed in 2000 in order to then work in the profession.

Political activities

Lüssow began his career in the right-wing extremist scene in the early 1990s in the context of the neo-Nazi Free Comradeships in Rostock as a hooligan and skinhead , where he took on responsibility at an early age and worked closely with neo-Nazis such as Christian Worch . Lüssow is considered to be the head of the "Action Group Fortress City Rostock" (AGR) founded in 2002, which is connected to the "Alliance Right" of Worch and, like it, was very critical of the NPD. Until the end of 2004, the group made an appearance through rallies, including a rally on May 8th , the end of the Second World War, under the motto "We never capitulate" and a call to boycott the European and local elections on June 13, 2004, to which the NPD had also started.

Furthermore, Lüssow was active in the "Kameradschaftsbund Mecklenburg" (KBM). Anti-fascist groups move him close to the forbidden “ Blood & Honor Network ”. On November 18, 2006, he took part as a speaker at a rally registered by Worch and mainly attended by neo-Nazis from the free comradeship spectrum in memory of the fallen soldiers of the Waffen-SS and Wehrmacht in Seelow , which this year replaced the traditional however, forbidden “hero's commemoration” took place at the Halbe forest cemetery .

Party career

In October 2005 he joined the NPD and in March 2006 took over the provisional leadership of the NPD district association Mecklenburg-Mitte. The Mecklenburg-Mitte district association would have had to elect a new district executive in January 2007, as stipulated in the statutes of the NPD. In the state elections in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in September 2006, he took fifth place on the state list and, thanks to the 7.3% that the NPD reached, he entered the state parliament in Schwerin as a member. He was not re-elected in the 2011 state election.

From the local elections in 2009 until the beginning of January 2013, Lüssow was a member of Rostock's citizenship.

MP

Birger Lüssow represented the NPD in the education and transport committees of the state parliament. He was also the youth policy spokesman for his group.

In connection with the disruption of an exhibition on Anne Frank in Grimmen, Lüssow, in a speech in a session of the state parliament and on the website of the NPD, disseminated the thesis common among right-wing extremists that the diaries of the Jewish girl Anne Frank, murdered by the Nazis, were not written until after 1945 . The Berlin Anne Frank Center then filed a criminal complaint for sedition , but this did not result in any investigation.
