How AfD reached the German parliament

- Angela Merkel has been re-elected for a fourth term, but it's a hollow victory given the pummelling she and her former coalition partners received. and the success of the right-wing, nationalist Alternative for Germany party. The AfD, which promised to fight "an invasion of foreigners", seems to have capitalised on a backlash over Mrs Merkel's decision to open Germany's borders to over a million migrants and refugees in 2015. It all leaves a tense political backdrop and Mrs Merkel with a headache as she tries to cobble together a new ruling coalition.
I say this as a man of color: the bias of this kind of reporting is why the Right will grow. Every citizen has a democratic right to oppose an outlandish policy. A policy which invites people from the most violent, and most intolerant part of the world, can be be questioned, denounced, and peacefully opposed. Old labels like 'racist' are cheap shots. Matt Frei, a decent journalist otherwise, missed the chance to provide a balanced analysis of the political status-quo in Europe.
Jack Brown that's what I have been saying for years germany is very welcoming to and body but the refugees don't want to learn how they live they want to take over the world.I am not racist at all.The same with America they come to America and get all kinds of ways to help them.They shit on the American citizens.
You could have called him many things but a decent journalist.
I'm amazed she can even run for 4 times... That's too long for one person to hold power in a democracy.
True, you can see the evil in her eyes
The German chancellor has way less power than most leaders in other countries and is also not the head of state (which is the president, who can only serve two terms).
She has total control. Nobody has oposed here when she opened the borders.
Right...That is a soft dictatorship!

I am quite sure the election was manipulated. In Saxony there were enough volunteers to make sure the votes/ballots are counted correctly and that no fraud will happen.
AfD got the strongest party in Saxony? No way! How could that be? Oh! People are using their democratic rights? Oh well... Discrediting and infiltration doesn't work anymore... Well, we have a bullet for every single one of them...
Damn people which speak their mind... They should pay and shut the fuck up!
(I hope you guys get, when I started with the irony&sarcasm.)
well done AFD
Its good 4 Germany 👮
@@4cps777 are you dumb?
I feel like throwing up
@@freethinker8966 then go to the doctor quickly and dont write it in the comment section, dont lose time! You could have appendicitis...
Thorbelinho TV I think I'll only stop feeling sick, then people stop voting for the afd, but thank's for your concern, I appreciate it
Im not a supporter of the AFD but this is so painfully biased it is hard to take channel 4 serious anymore. They clearly had to portray a preset narrative they decided on before they interviewed anyone. What happened to traditional journalism where questioned both sides equally as hard and they were intellectually curious instead of narrow-minded of differing opinion
Ruairi OC He was ridicule, arrogant and simply stupid. Sorry.
Progressives create propaganda, they are not there to portray the other side evenly.
If you don't watch the news, you are not informed, if you do watch the news,you are misinformed.

Your grammar makes me think your parents were brother and sister
Why? The senior chairman (Gauland) clearly stated that hes a racist, telling everyone fleeing to Germany is strange, from a strange country and strange culture ?!
Moreover its correct that he asked to be proud of the german army during WW2...
And hes definitely not the top of the right wing ! Theres also Mr Höcke and Poggenburg, stating that childern should get taught way less topics about WW2 and that we need a 180 degree turn in terms of political history awareness...enough said for me
Good luck AfD.
Ccs
Sorry to correct you but the AFD is not "far - right" but rather centre - right. The NPD is far right. (fom Germany)
AFD is far right (also from germany)
I m afraid to say before the wall made Germany into two parts .now the parties made Germany into pieces
@@norben1162 nope
AFD is absolutely far right, don't talk nonsense ( also from Germany ) xD
@@norben1162 Thank you
Germany is rising Again despite all odds finally they have real chance to fix all those issues. I’m looking forward to more successes for the german people🇩🇪. Best wishes from Ecuador .
Afd is right. Immigration has ruined Germany and it is perfectly acceptable to be frustrated at the very striking social changes that has taken place there.
They got weird now
As long as reporters are this dishonest and utterly stupid, they better not believe they're going to regain any trust with the general public.
Just because Germany was Nazi once, does not mean it should destroy itself. Soviets already punished you for 54 years.
I'M ENGLISH, AND CH4 IS DISGRACEFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS, U RUDE BARSTERS
WELL DONE AfD, TAKE YOUR COUNTRY BACK, I APPLAUD YOU
The arrogant British journalist was put in place by wise, calm, intelligent man. Britts, what a shame are you. Who teaches moral... whom. The britts just voted anti emigrant agenda, but neverless, this journalist teach the Germans, how bad this approach is-what a shame.
Leon Erin It is quite irritating, how bad the British journalism became. .This party was voted in free elections - what "opinion" in foreign country this arrogant type may have? The german man was so irritated, that he mistake the english "WE" with the german equivalent word. And what bad is for someone to say that the Wermacht soldiers were brave? They were -most of them was conscription army, and not nazy at all. What choice they have then? mutiny?
The Brits fought the Germans in WW II although Germany never started war on England in all of history (BBC lied to you even alreaedy then during WW II), and now they begin to realize they fought the wrong people.
When i say "wrong people" i am not saying, fight the Migrants. No. They are being used like a tool, too.
Find out about "TREASON FROM WITHIN".

dont worry, our media is exactly like yours.
"If you are against migration , you are a Nazi" . The whole "truth" of our Media in one sentence.
I really love the person that edited this. You are a wonderful human being with a great sense of humor.
Angela Merkel was not elected for a fourth term
The voting system in Germany gives the voters a means to decide who shall represent their interests in the parliament ("Bundestag"). It does not allow voting a chancellor.
It remains to be seen, if the Bundestag really elects Merkel. Many, many Germans are sick of her and there has never been a "Jamaica" coalition (black/yellow/green) at the federal level ...
This report is not neutral. Wrong quotations, partisan interview partners, interviews not conducted in German, etc.
Angela Merkel has not been elected for another term. The CDU party would need an absolute majority (50+%) to choose a chancellor on their own. They only achieved 32 % or so which means that they need another party to form a coalition which can then elect a chancellor. So theoretically it could be someone else. Please change the description because it is wrong. The chancellor is not automatically the candidate of the party with the most votes. The chancellor is elected by the whole paliamemt and needs at least 50% approval. If the other parties form a coalition that covers 50%+ of the seats they can nominate and elect a chancellor.

But after all, your technically right, Angela Merkel isn't officially elected chancellor, by now.

And, in order to REALLY look at every possibility....The SPD COULD possibly coalate with FDP, Greens AND Left party, which would be a coalition of 4 parties, socialist, neo-liberal and environmentally all in one...which of course would be impossible, how could all these parties find some common ground? That's an odd idea that nobody is even mentioning.
that means that someone else will be chancellor ? Soon ?
Channel 4 are so out of touch. I would love them to take a walk in a no go zone.
Long live AfD
The interviewer is a sensitive soul indeed if he considers a poster exhorting Germans to have more children to be 'offensive'.
They got elected because they deserved it !
Seeing how someone can run for 4 terms in a democracy shows Germany should have fixed term limits
Atleast the German Parliament with have a real opposition now
Its 2020 so far right is now conservative liberal.
Through people that don't want their country being taken away from them and those that like to keep their identity.
This interviewer isn't doing his job...feeding him loaded questions and cutting off the person he is supposed to be listening to...what a shame
Anyone who disagrees is branded 'Far Right'. Maybe we should wear that badge with pride.
Deutschexit, C'mon do it! White babies are offensive, lol!!
These manipulated news are making me sick.
What the afd politician meant was not (as you made it seem) "we are proud of our nazi history"
That’s wrong!
"We are proud of our history" means we are proud of our military for fighting over 5 years against over 5 nations! That is impressive.
I think no other nation would have been able to fight for this long.
We aren’t proud of the fact why 2nd world war started. But to be honest quite the exact happened in the "Türkei" with the "Armeniern".
After world war 1 all Germans were disappointed and tried to blame the loss on a minority of inhabitants.
In Addition sorry, but if you would know about the historical events that took place before world war 1 and our point of view back then. Perhaps you could understand why the Germans acted like this back then.
Nowadays especially, Germany is a wonderful country with "Sozialleistungen", great education and mostly "Chancengleichheit".
These are the achievements that our ancestors (who weren’t all nazis) brought us. There is no need to be ashamed or making ourselves small. We should be proud of our country.
The only parties who support this patriotism are the right parties. No wonder that the Germans can’t take it anymore.
7:34 The problem. Can’t wait for these people to be swept away.
At least they spooked Merkel. However gauland should have said “Britain should be proud of Churchill with his empire, France and its yellow vests, Germany as its fatherland etc. He should have never said about being proud of its german soldiers it’s got awkward .
they should have sung the national anthem from that movie iron sky.
thank you geof
Power to the PEOPLE, no centralization of power.
How? From voters. This is called democracy-Maybe that’s not how mainstream parties get in though.
Puzzle over it.
Is this objective journalism?
A very biased piece of reporting here
heavy
They r takin our jawbs
where are all the German men stand up and fight
Chan 4....and noooooo, nooo surprises
You can have mass migration or the welfare state....you can't have both
Nice bit of objective journalism - "how alarmed are you by this result" FFS
I have seen thousands of burkas, of course not in the best areas
Allles fuer Deutschland
achievements of the Wehrmacht in two world wars? err, in the first world war it wasn't called that.
The wehrmacht are general army/military units
History was written by the victors. Remember that...
The beast is wounded!
They got in because they acctually want a future for their country unlike *some* countries who want to make their countries Muslim
How the Far Left took over Channel Four!
AfD 💪💙
We only can hope that Afd to win one of the coming elections in the next years about president. This world always fight against racism but never against Islam which is much worse.
Anyone here from the united states?
3:08 If you can't speak English correctly than "lass es sein"!
I hope the AFD becomes the dominant party and the prime minister belongs to the AFD.
Why wouldn’t you take pride if you were German in the German army during two world wars they did some pretty impressive things and the regular soldiers didn’t know what evil hid behind their achievements.
poncy channel 4 (reporter)
Lang lebe Deutschland
The AfD is "not" the first "far" right party in our Bundestag^^ you should use Wikipedia.. It seems to be better informed than you
lol far right haha no they arent far right just right channel 4
stand up for yourself Germany!
The fact that views regarding protection of the homeland, are considered as being unacceptable and outlandish in the leading democratic states of the world; is a big reason why politics has become so irrational in the recent days.
This is awesome!!!! So proud of germans!!!! Stay strong like the Americans who support Trump and are keeping our country how it was back in the day. Our country doesn't need to change, we want our culture to stay how it was, a few decades back.
Trump died on the toilet taking a dump
Lügenpresse
As a citizen of both North America and italy I want to point out the double standard in North America only native Americans have the right to deny immigrants because they are the first people here in Italy natives do not have the right to deny immigrant because the other first people there
You are an idiot
Rio truths you act like a child. „I was first“ then what? Stfu
OP is a gobshite
AfD on top
God Bless the AFD.
It's very nice to see that so much Englander also vote for the AfD and not for Merkel. I have hopes. Thank you!
Well done Germany, glad to see your proud of your country and that you want to hold on to your culture. And to the presenters, why use your elitist language to demonise the fact that the people want to preserve their way of life and live without fear.
Nuclear family must be respected
If you are any other culture or ethnicity, other than white European, and you say you love your culture and ethnic background and it should be celebrated, everybody cheers you.
But if you come from any kind of white European stock and you say that, you are branded as a racist.
What about all the Germans living in our countries?
There are 30,000 Germans living in my country Namibia & they are left to live their lives with no racism or whatever against them. They are part of the nation, have citizenship & thats it. 30,000 Germans living in Africa after Germany slaughtered hundreds of thousands of the Herero tribe - if German ycarries on with all this xenophobia i hope they understand that there will be a reaction too. What happens to the 30,000 Germans living here if the people decide to revolt against them
I agree Germans shouldnt be made to feel ashamed of their past its history, the only problem is that the world is extremely scared looking at these types of things because the undertone or foundation of it all is still "germany for germans only" - but who gets to decide who is german & who isnt?.....the political parties.....again
History doesnt repeat itself, but it always rhymes - Mark Twain
I voted AFD 💙
1st
good for the AFD go get em! be proud german people, do not be ashamed of your history, and do not be ashamed to be german! you be proud of germany and be proud to be german
todd bates that's why trump won the election in the us.Because people are tired of liberals and they will continue to lose.We will not be brainwashed into thinking that liberalism is right.There time is up.
The bias is extraordinary .
afd get there by democracy!
AfD forever💙
What a great country and culture. Germans do not give it away to foreigners. Take it back!
Afd for Germany 👍👍👍
