Die Liste Pilz gibt Donnerstagvormittag die Nachfolge für den scheidenden Klubobmann Peter Kolba bekannt. Die Fraktion kündigte am Mittwoch eine Pressekonferenz für den Feiertag an. Ob es bei der Präsentation nur um die Klubführung geht oder auch um die von Listengründer Peter Pilz seit längerem anvisierte Rückkehr in den Nationalrat, blieb auf Nachfrage bei der Liste unbeantwortet.

Die Liste Pilz hat dem Parlament zugesichert, bis Freitag eine Lösung für den Klubvorsitz zu finden, das erklärte Parlamentssprecher Karl-Heinz Grundböck am Mittwochnachmittag gegenüber der APA. Derzeit verfüge die Fraktion mit Peter Kolba über einen Klubchef und die Frage des Nachfolgers sei von der Liste Pilz zu klären.

Die Liste Pilz ist nach wie vor mit sich selbst beschäftigt. Auch am Mittwochnachmittag gab es keine Lösung, wer für den rückkehrwilligen Parteigründer Peter Pilz seinen Platz räumt. Die für Pilz nachgerückte Martha Bißmann bleibt dabei, dass sie nicht bereit ist, zu verzichten. Offen ist auch, wer den Klub führen wird, wenn sich Peter Kolba wie angekündigt am Donnerstag als Klubchef zurückzieht.

Following on from the ‘Retirement quandary’ thread, I noticed the overweight and heavy drinking thing being mentioned a few times.
