Wechselnde Mehrheiten sind ausgeschlossen. Changing majorities are excluded. The sentence is from the coalition agreement that the CDU, CSU and SPD signed in November 2005. The parliamentary groups of the coalition vote together in the Bundestag and in all bodies to which it sends members. In practice, this rules out either partner seeking majorities with the opposition.
Disputes go to the coalition committee. The agreement gives it a clear task. It führt in Konfliktfällen Konsens herbei. In cases of conflict, it brings about consensus.
