At least in Germany ministers are intelligent enough to resign themselves instead of staying for some weeks and then getting kicked out.
Maybe, maybe not. We will never know.
He did inform his owners (Merkel and Bild) on monday... and one of them broke the story 45min in advance. Guess which one.

Merkel ? LOL, looks like someone else is trying to limit damages... Grin


For all who think we Germans overreact. No one, not even his fans, want that we get in Germany relations like Italy.

You didn't overreact at all. You are lucky to live in a country where certain things are not tolerated, and I wish France or Italy were like that.

Oh well, I was assuming you asked me to guess because the counter-intuitive option was the right one. What a fail. Tongue

And they say there is no good news. Baron Münchhausen is gone.Grin

I've known him a long time because I am also from Upper Franconia. Even with his resignation he was a vain self-promoter.

Thankfully, I'm reasonably sure that Guttenberg will be back Smiley

So, every single right leader apart from Merkel is down ?

She'd better kill left leaders than right ones Tongue...

(yeah, she didn't initiate Gutennberg's fall and she seems really sad, but the series is impressive... Kohl himself in a way, Wulff, Koch, Guttenberg, Schaüble,...)
(sort of hitchcockian politics Grin)

In the case of Guttenberg was probably political suicide.
