in World News GERMANY AWAKENING: Alice Weidel’s Right-Wing AfD Party Is Now Leading the Polls Ahead of Incoming Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s CDU
As the incoming German Chancellor Friedrich Merz concludes the coalition talks with Olad Scholz’s SPD, and betrays his voters by spousing the same suicidal EU policies he was elected to change, the voters show they are moving away from the mainstream.
A new poll by Ipsos is out today, showing for the first time the right-wing AfD party as the sole leader, ahead of Merz’s CDU.
Besides celebrating the good news, on X, Weidel also criticized Merz’s coalition with the liberal SPD: “The representation of Germany’s interests and those of German taxpayers is not reflected in a single sentence of this coalition agreement. High energy prices, the heating law, and billions of dollars wasted on open borders, illegal migration, and green ideology projects remain in place.”
