🇩🇪 Germany is debating whether to ban the far-Right Alternative for Germany (AfD) as the party surges to 21 per cent in the polls, amid warnings from intelligence officials that its members are becoming increasingly extreme

In a rare move, the respected Der Spiegel news magazine weighed into the debate with a leader titled: “Ban the enemies of the constitution!” 
It warned that “the AfD has become more and more radicalised. It’s time to defend democracy with better weapons”.

The co-leader of Olaf Scholz’s ruling Social Democrats also said a ban should be considered if the AfD is categorised as a group of “proven Right-wing extremists” by the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution.

"Much to my regret, I was perplexed by the Milei phenomenon at my table. Second most voted individual, but without ONE prosecutor. If he had had prosecutors to replace his ticket, he would have made a disaster.

It's hard, but many people who are angry choose the one who yells the loudest..."
