Yer, if you don't know already it wasn't time but Gerhard wanted "A fresh mandate" to do his reforms as his popularity went down the bin and unemplyment reached 5 million. As he can't call an election he just started a vote of no confidence in himself and hold his party not to defend him so it would trigger an election. A lot of people have been saying that it is a crime against democracy & the consitution and all that but as everyone wants an early election the president let it pass. And Merkel could be the first female Chancellor which would be interesting. A lot of backstabing seams to be going on round the major countries right now as all the current leaders won't last another election so everyone has been meeting the head of the opposition parties. See, all fun.
