Is Berlin about to expropriate its big landlords? Not yet. Three parties have a plan, but no coalition, no law and no court ruling

False: planned in exploratory talks, not decided; no law before mid-2028

The Left won the Berlin election on 20 September with 25.7 percent. With the Greens and the SPD it would have 91 of 153 seats.Confirmed1021511

Their joint paper, agreed on 17 October, plans to use Article 15 of the Basic Law for private landlords with 10,000 or more flats in Berlin. Each would keep 10,000. Cooperatives and homes built since 2021 are exempt.Confirmed45367

Compensation is capped at 16 billion euros. The bill is due in mid-2028 and the transfer takes effect one year after the law is promulgated.Confirmed4623

SPD and Greens voted on 19 October to open coalition talks. The Left decides on 31 October.Confirmed189

Vonovia says the plan is unconstitutional. No court has ever ruled on Article 15, which has never been used.ConfirmedUnconfirmed212131415316

The honest short version: a left-wing Berlin government is likely but not formed, socialisation is its plan but not law, and the first flat could change hands in 2029 at the earliest, if the courts allow it.

Waar we naar kijken

  • Ireland moves to drop the UN veto on sending troops abroad

    Ireland's parliament, the Dáil, backed a bill on Wednesday that removes the UN step from the so-called Triple Lock. The vote was close: 79 for and 71 against.Confirmed12

    Today Ireland can only send more than 12 soldiers abroad when the government, the Dáil and the UN all agree. The government says five big powers in the UN Security Council should not decide for Ireland. The whole opposition voted no and says this weakens Irish neutrality.Confirmed12

    The bill is not law yet. It goes to the next stage, most likely next month, and the government expects it to pass before the end of the year.Confirmed1

  • Alberta plans proof of citizenship for voting after referendum

    In Alberta's referendum on 19 October, a majority supported a rule that voters must prove they are citizens in provincial elections. The results are still unofficial. Official results are due on 29 October.Confirmed1

    Claim: 58 percent voted yes. Early counts point to a clear yes, but the final number is not official yet.Unconfirmed1

    Premier Danielle Smith says this will very likely be the first point her government turns into law. The next provincial election is next October.Confirmed2

  • UK pays record September interest on its debt

    The UK government paid £10.9 billion in debt interest in September 2026. That is the highest September since monthly records began in 1997. Rising inflation added about £4 billion, because some government bonds are linked to prices.Confirmed12

    Claim on X: the UK paid about £61 billion in interest in half a year. This is true. Official data show £60.8 billion from April to September 2026.Confirmed1

    Public debt passed £3 trillion for the first time. Measured against the size of the economy it fell slightly, to 94 percent.Confirmed12
