Opposition politicians stated that the resignation of Spuerkeess CEO Françoise Thoma was an "understandable" consequence for the bank, while government coalition figures expressed surprise and declined to comment extensively on what they called an internal matter.

The announcement of Françoise Thoma's resignation as CEO of Spuerkeess has prompted a range of reactions from Luxembourg's political parties, with opposition figures seeing it as a necessary consequence and coalition members adopting a more reserved stance.

MP Djuna Bernard of the Green Party (Déi Gréng) acknowledged that there "had already been whispers to this effect." She stated that while whether Thoma alone should bear the responsibility is an "internal matter" for the bank, it is "understandable" that there are consequences. "But that there should be consequences at the bank level seems entirely understandable to me and not necessarily a bad thing", Bernard stated.

Coalition parties were more measured in their comments. Gilles Baum, president of the Democratic Party (DP) parliamentary group, noted the bank's involvement in the recent Caritas scandal but admitted he "wasn't expecting this right now." He argued that the resignation is "the bank's decision, not a political one", and praised Thoma for her long and "very, very dedicated" service.

Echoing this sentiment, Marc Spautz, president of the Christian Social People's Party (CSV) parliamentary group, found the situation "difficult to comment on, as we don't know the full context."

In a more critical tone, MP Mars di Bartolomeo of the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party (LSAP) argued that while the CEO must take responsibility for errors in the Caritas affair, Thoma is "certainly not the only person to have made mistakes." He redirected criticism towards the government, stating his party maintains that Caritas could have been saved if the political will had been there.
