War of nerves for Opel



Berlin - The rescue of Opel is a war of nerves. Once again, Opel's parent, General Motors (GM), not opted for a bidder. The group is playing for time, will probably make all the weary! For car expert Dudenhöffer it is also a "disgrace" for the Chancellor.
The takeover poker for Opel - € 4.5 billion will give the federal government to state aid if Magna, the car maker. But GM adjourned again next week. Again, 26,000 Opelaner fear for their jobs.
Background: GM is supposedly unable to agree on a bidder - either the Austro-Canadian supplier Magna or the Belgian financial investor RHJ International. Magna wants to get German Opel sites at RHJ is unclear.
Chancellor Angela Merkel on Saturday beat a speedy decision. That would be "urgently needed". Economics Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg (CSU) said the "jacket": "None of the parties should have an interest in being exposed to the charge cooler Verhandlungstaktiererei."
North Rhine-Westphalia state premier Juergen Ruettgers spoke of an "unbearable burden" - especially for the Opelaner. Opel works council chief Klaus Franz, GM accuses Delay Policy: "The patience of the staff is completely at the end."
Has little hope of Ferdinand Dudenhoeffer. The car experts at Express: "It is a tactical, sad game. GM holds out the federal government - and indeed until after the election. Then the group will be RHJ either supplement or file for bankruptcy. Sooner or later, there are no variants in both German sites more. The Chancellor must act at last - even from my own stupidity. You should be with President Obama call and clarify how to proceed. If it does not make it, she makes a fool of himself. "The U.S. government has already invested billions in GM, might therefore influence the group.

Dream ended in the fire



Dusseldorf - While at the harbor is a boatbuilder Hall went up in flames, was the head of the company just to climb on Mount Etna. For the merchant Jacob K. Neusser (46), owner of "Liberty," blurted the other hand, a great vacation dream, for his 50,000-euro yacht burned out completely, as well as two other boats.
Three and a half days after the great fire at the Cuxhavenerstrasse investigators probed the detectives in the fire debris, looking for telltale signs of arson. Police spokesman Mark Niesczery: "We are still in the evaluation, at the moment want to say anything."
 For Jacob K. is the fire of his yacht "Liberty" a particularly heavy blow: "First, it meant for my family and me very much, she was like our second home. We planned to our holiday. With so much free time is inside, detail work, passion and money that come to me in tears. Secondly, I had restored it after an accident in the harbor just Neusser. She was ready for collection. "
 But the worst of all: Boat Builders boss Roland F. was inadequately insured against fire. F. on the phone from Sicily to the Express: "I thought as an insurance policy with the rather low risk of fire in our industry is not necessary to have assured me only 25,000 euros. This does not look good. The fire threatened my existence. "
The fire department estimated the total damage at least 300,000 euros. 10 times 30 meters, the hall is only a sheet metal torso and in danger of collapse. Is also concerned with the bearing of a Boiler Cleaning, which has just settled in the port. In this hall burned a truck.

Super and Normal continue as expensive



Dusseldorf - "I'll give gas, I want fun!" The hit of pop singer "Mark" from the 80s in Germany can put fewer and fewer drivers.
After climbing and climbing gasoline prices, driving is increasingly becoming a luxury. And what the carriers of petrol horribly annoying: your fuel is as expensive as a few weeks since Super.
At the beginning of the Christmas holidays, the oil companies, yet again, the petrol prices had increased in November, the regular-aligned with Super. And it has remained so until Monday. "Totally unfair," complains Karsten von Hagen West. "It's pure price gouging."
On Sunday, motorists had to pay 1.429 euros for a proud liters of fuel. "I have purchased a gasoline engine as an extra car to save money. That was probably for naught, "complains Stefan Teicher from Wülfrath. "But I fear that the madness is not over and prices rise in the coming weeks."
Many motorists clench his fist in his pocket, since there are few alternatives. "I am dependent on my way to work on the car. The journey by public transport takes too long, and I'm late, "said George Fuchs from Erkelenz. "What else can I do to fill up too? Maybe we need to think about new energies. "
As a truck driver Isa knows Isley prices for the fuel very well. "Germany is to England and Holland, the drittteuerste country in Europe. Since, therefore, deserve not only the powerful multinational oil companies, but also the state. Due to the constant increases in the year I have several hundred dollars less money in their pockets. It must be saved somewhere else. "
Therefore Mhairou Mohamad wants the politicians finally step in and turn the downward price spiral. "The leaders in Berlin have to help the little people on the street, otherwise they can hardly any longer afford a car. Repairs are now no longer pay almost, because the wages stay the same or even fall, but the costs rise even further. "Only Kai Olcher does not complain about high gasoline prices. "I need my car, fortunately only in rare cases, a lot of entrepreneurial walk."
