The "democratic public order" argument is not used for the rulling, just the enforcement mechanism (i.e. the ban being immediate). Which in and of itself is not novel, just rarely used.

Novel or not it just plainly makes sense. If you can suspend the rulling via appeal process it effectively becomes null and void since the rulling is time sensitive.

It's also fitting, since her party and she personally argued for this exact mechnicism to be used by all courts in corruption cases.
