The people of Berlin voted to take the apartments held by Deutsche Wohnen into public ownership, another property hoarding company. The language of the referendum made it essentially binding, yet the Berlin senate refuses to move forward. A second referendum was even passed with a practical law proposal and still nothing.
Wasn’t there also a referendum on rent control which passed, and shortly after application got taken down by the supreme court? What a fucking joke of a democracy

Germany in a nutshell.
It’s almost as if those politicians are not representing the citizens but the landlords. Naaah, that can’t be, we vooooted for them!
