In 2025, Dresden will host the World Transplant Games event. A good thing. It’s one of the reasons why Lord Mayor Dirk Hilbert flew to Australia this year to accept the flag from organizers in Perth. Now there’s an uproar in town hall over the cost of travel. As suspected by Hilbert’s wife on social media, Hilbert’s new girlfriend is said to have been by his side in Perth. Left parties have asked the Mayor for a detailed expenditure report.
As he stays in Australia, Dresden’s Lord Mayor Dirk Hilbert (FDP) is due to present an expenditure report to the city council. As confirmed by the Parliamentary Committee Office MDR SACHSEN, there is one Inquire about travel expenses to the OB office and his companions. Hilbert attended the World Transplant Games in Perth, which will be held in Dresden in 2025. The Left accuses the OB of mixing official and personal interests – to the detriment of the city.

Personal leave with official interest
After the trip, Hilbert separated from his wife and made it public in a post on social media. He also accused his wife – on social media – of cheating on him in Australia. Hilbert “combined his personal holiday with official enthusiasm” to hand over the baton for the World Transplant Games, as city spokesman MDR SACHSEN told it. No airfare was incurred to the city. Hilbert paid for the private part of the trip himself.
It has probably not happened since the Baroque that a Saxon representative took his mistress on trips and accompanied her to official events.

Hilbert checks his travel expenses
This raises further questions for the opposition. He wants to know which persons accompanied the Mayor on the trip and official meetings. According to a city spokesperson, the mayor was not accompanied by any other representatives from the state capital. She didn’t say if she had a new girlfriend. Perhaps considering the mayor’s privacy, he asked his wife after his separation.
These events reminded him King Augustus the Strong, said Linke city councilor Tilo Wirtz MDR SACHSEN. A Saxon representative “takes his mistress on trips” and on official occasions “not since the Baroque”, he wrote on his Facebook account and spoke to MDR SACHSEN about the abuse of office. First, Bild newspaper reported on Hilbert’s partner.
As reported by the city of MDR SACHSEN, the accounts for the trip to Australia have not yet been finalized. Hilbert is also considering reimbursing his expenses Directorate of State To be verified “to remove allegations”. Because of his many business trips, the Taxpayers Association awarded Hilbert the “Spinal Saxons” negative prize for wasting tax money in 2017.
