they'll be some changes of the national party conventions in general the party executive will become younger more feminine. the executive committee will to. support that but i think it's far too short sighted to reduce everything to a question of personnel but. the real problem is that we have to revise the s.p.d.m. platform because we have to have a sharper profile but we also have to deal with issues coming up in the future it's not just digitise ation mean to our workaday world how will life be in the society of migrants global justice people expect answers to these questions and they expect some orientation which the s.p.d. isn't giving them right now. just yet yourselves said it has to become younger and more feminine so it is a question of personnel are you confident the national convention won't go the same way as in bavaria and you're comes up empty handed again a moment at the moment i'm very confident i think the party has learned that it
