history

Old logo (1994-2012)

Johannes Hertrampf , doctor of economics and philosophy and a former lecturer at the TU Dresden , has been federal chairman since the party was founded . After German reunification , he belonged to the DVU for a few months (including on the state executive) and was an author in various magazines of the extreme right such as Nation and Europa . After he described National Socialism as a “dangerous wrong way” in one of his articles, he is no longer active for the paper. In April 1993, Hertrampf participated in the founding of the Freedom National Party (FNP) in Dresden and was its federal chairman.

In mid-January 2006, the Saxon state parliament members Jürgen Schön and Klaus Baier , who had resigned from the NPD , declared their transfer to FP Germany . However, both soon turned away again.

Since October 2006 the party has been a member of the Alliance of Democratic Parties and Organizations , in which Hertrampf acts as one of the three speakers alongside Heinz Hört (HMF Offensive eV) and Kay Hanisch ( Instead of Party ). In February 2011, FP Germany took part in the founding of the Pro Sachsen electoral alliance . The FP chairman Hertrampf is also chairman of this alliance.

On December 21, 2015, the FPD documents were removed from the official collection of the Federal Returning Officer in accordance with Section 2 Paragraph 2 Clause 1. In accordance with this legal norm, the FPD had lost its legal status as a party at this point in time, after not having submitted its own nominations for an election for six years.
