Forward Tyrol

Principle

Forward Tirol describes himself as the only alternative civil and wants to concentrate off again on a more participatory, efficient and solution-oriented policy in Tirol property of partisan and ideological constraints. It is not the party affiliation of the politicians are in the foreground, but their expertise and their focus on solutions to major policy issues and factual issues. This means that the concerns of the citizens should be again clearly visible and audible.

History and Formation

The new list of " forward Tirol" was presented on January 16, 2013, after it has been speculated for a long time in advance of the possibility of the re-establishment of such a civil list. The current Mayor of Innsbruck, Christine Oppitz - Plörer was involved in addition to the previous ÖVP politician Anna Hosp instrumental in the formation. Hans Lindenberger was also heavily involved in the creation of this new list, and at the same time was also the leading candidate of that party.

This fact should indicate that the party newly formed basically want to move differently when it comes to party membership and to politically clear direction, Hans Lindenberger was still working for the Social Democratic Party in Parliament and even as a Councillor in the government of the state government van Staa II.

Anna Hosp was also the provincial government under the state government van Staa II, but resigned after the state elections in 2008 left the government and joined the private sector. Your return to politics could thus be seen as a kind of " comeback " and also as a clear position against the People's Party, which currently is under the command of Günther Platter.

Immediately after the state election, there were large differences within the party over the leadership in the party. This resulted in public slurs between Hans Lindenberger on one side and Anna Hosp on the other side. Innsbruck's mayor withdrew after the election from all executive positions and remained simple party member.
