    Better keep high level politicians away from disasters, they are only there for the PR, anyway. I don’t have an exact grasp of what Berlin’s disaster response law is like, but I assume that the responsibility for setting up and running a crisis staff would be with the affected district mayor, and on state level (Berlin is a city state after all), the immediate responsibility would be with the senator of the interior.

    I’m wondering what a politician would bring to a PR visit at a power outage, the rubber boots customary for floods certainly aren’t going to work, maybe an extension cord?
