The euro critical and Islamophobic Alternative for Germany (AFD) fired a weekly poll by Bild am Sonntag a record 12 percent of voting intentions, 2 percent more than last week. She remains thus, like last week, the third party in Germany.
Yesterday suggested AfD chairwoman Frauke Petry that police "emergency" should not make use of firearms to prevent refugees Austria via Germany to enter.
"We need to put more police on the border and we should not be afraid to send people back," she told the newspaper Mannheimer Morgen. "If necessary, we must also build. When refugees over those fences to scramble, the police should stop such illegal border crossing. If necessary, officers use their firearms. It says so in the law," though she added however, that 'armed force is a last resort. "
Not only from a political perspective there was a lot of criticism of the statements of Petry.The German police union GdP was hard as nails. "No agent is prepared to shoot migrants. To suggest such radical methods, clearly wants to abolish the law and the police use as a tool," said President Jörg Radek in a statement. "We have already witnessed in the history of Germany and we never want to."
In the poll by Bild am Sonntag get the ruling Christian Democrats (CDU of Angela Merkel) again, by 34 percent, their worst result since July 2012, also falls coalition partner SPD, and amounted to 24 percent.
