LINKE

About me

Who is behind linke.de: a private political portal since 1996, independent of any party, with news, videos and analysis on German politics.

linke.de is my personal website, online since 1996. During the 2025 federal election, it grew into a political portal with over 200,000 visitors per day.

In 2026, I rebuilt the site from scratch — new technology, new design. To be clear: this is not affiliated with the party DIE LINKE. It is my private project.

What you will find here: new stories every day on parties, the Bundestag, state elections and the big political debates. Many pieces pick up videos and statements from the web, put them in context and link the source so you can judge for yourself. Every story is assigned to a party and tagged by topic.

The site carries no advertising and is not funded by any party, organisation or foundation. To never miss a story, subscribe to the newsletter or use the RSS feed. Tips on interesting stories and criticism of individual pieces are welcome via the contact page.
