After two years he was replaced by Bernd Köppl by rotation . He then worked for two Berlin MPs from the AL. In 1988 he was one of the founders of the anti-racist initiative . In 1989 he was against the coalition with the SPD , as the goals of the AL were not realized in his policy area ( migration policy ). Due to the elections in December 1990 , Peter Finger became unemployed because the West Greens were no longer elected to the Bundestag. Because of internal tensions in the area of ​​AL “Migration Policy”, he withdrew from the alternative list.
