"Not in a good mood" Ludwig refuses Zeiler

Wiener Bürgermeister Michael Ludwig kommentiert die Entscheidung von Andreas Babler, aus der SPÖ auszusteigen, und erklärt, wie die Partei ihre neue Struktur gestaltet. Nach einem langen Krisengipfel und dem Schrittweise-Rückzug Bablers betont Ludwig, dass die SPÖ innerhalb der Partei einen klaren Wunsch nach Veränderung hatte. Er bestätigt, dass eine Lösung gefunden wurde, bei der Bablers Wechsel erst im nächsten Jahr stattfindet, um die Genesung von Finanzminister Markus Marterbauer zu respektieren. Ludwig weist zudem darauf hin, dass Bablers Abgang keine Überraschung für die Koalitionspartner sein wird. Zudem erwähnt er, dass die Ambitionen von Medienmanager Gerhard Zeiler nicht unterstützt werden, da keine starke Stimmung dafür bestehe.
