politics

In 1971, Allesch was a co-founder of the Atterseekreis , which existed until the 1980s and was largely sponsored by Federal Party Chairman Friedrich Peter , and was considered a “ liberal exponent” or “thought leader” of the Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) until he left . From 1978 he was a seminar leader and from 1980 to 1982, as the successor to Fritz Wolfram, he was managing director of the Freiheitliche Bildungswerk ( newly founded today as the FPÖ educational institute ) in Vienna, which at that time was chaired by Horst Schender , and in 1984 a founding member of the Liberal Club of Salzburg . From 1977 to 1980 he was federal chairman of the FPÖ apron organization Ring Freedom Youth (RFJ), which was supposed to radicalize right after his time.

Out of liberal convictions he left the Haider -FPÖ and later became involved in the liberal party split, Liberales Forum (LIF), around Heide Schmidt . From 1993 to 1995 he was the first state speaker of the Liberal Forum in Salzburg.

From 1995 to 1997 he was the managing director of the Liberal Education Forum (LBF), the party's political academy. In the European elections in Austria in 1999 , he ran for the Liberal Forum on list position 37; his party received 2.66% of the vote and failed to make it into the European Parliament again . In 2008 he was then LIF candidate - 2nd place on the Salzburg state party list - in the Austrian National Council election; with 2.09% of the vote, the party failed because of the four percent threshold .

In the National Council election in Austria in 2013 , he unsuccessfully took 8th place on the regional party list of the liberal NEOS, which had formed an electoral alliance with LIF and merged a year later, in the regional constituency 5A (Salzburg city).
