Good evening

Head of the Rhein-Main editorial department of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.

everyone always says that nothing is progressing in Germany, but that's not true at all! In the future, it will be possible to book time slots for security checks at Frankfurt Airport. Ok, just as a test. But wouldn't it be wonderful if it were possible in general? No longer standing in a seemingly endless queue of waiting people, but elegantly passing these disorganized passengers, go straight to go, and show your hand luggage at the agreed time. And really only show it, do not elaborately unpack laptop and toothpaste, because new devices that can look better are also being introduced. The future begins in Frankfurt, of course.
Well, what the future will look like in detail is of course also uncertain in the Main metropolis. The fog could lift a little when it is clear who will be the new city leader, as colleague Günter Murr writes in his commentary on the attitude of the important candidates to questions of urban planning: If Uwe Becker (CDU) wins, the already heavily slashed new district on the Autobahn 5 will hardly be able to be enforced, wins Mike Josef (SPD), Manuela Rottmann (The Greens) wins, and even her party's overturned plan to build on the Günthersburghöfe near the Friedberger Warte could be put back on the agenda.
It is therefore quite worthwhile to deal with the views of the most important candidates, which is why at this point reference should be made once again to the "Frankfurter Allgemeine Bürgergespräch", at which on Tuesday next week from 19.30 pm in the Evangelical Academy the three above-mentioned aspirants for the mayor's office and the FDP candidate Yanki Pürsün will answer the questions of the Rhein-Main editorial staff and the readers.

And in addition, the police arrested a man in the city center of Büdingen on Tuesday night on suspicion of having killed his partner +++ closes the butcher's shop Ebert in Frankfurt after 115 years +++ colleague Eva-Maria Magel deals with the upcoming Lent.
We wish you a pleasant evening
