Why have you stuck this in the Germany thread Mrs B?
Oops my bad,I cannot multi task.

Merkel received one big bloody nose from voters !,incredible madness as the far right had results beyond their dreams!
Crazy.
Bit harsh. I can certainly think of at least one...
Since when have you become an "expert" on German politics? :winking:

Do you consider yourself an expert then?
Absolutely not.Russian and US politics were my specialist subjects back in the day.Though I've always followed modern German politics with interest.
Cannot remember his name,last week this guy said "we have messed up the Middle East ,now we will mess up Europe too"
Would you agree then that her Foreign policies have been disastrous (Ukraine, Refugees, Greece etc), and now seemingly wanting to fast track Turkey into the EU.
There is absolutely no getting away from it, Merkel has dropped a big one here. The left can dress it up as best they can but you cannot escape the fact that her incredibly flawed immigration policy has exacerbated and inflamed what was an already tense situation throughout Germany and has given the far right a political platform they could once have only dreamed of.
What I find so astonishing is that many many thousands of ordinary people up and down the country and many influential political figures from across Europe were foretelling what the outcome would be and to a man we were all told we were wrong and that religious integration and free European mobility and settlement of whole swathes of people from totally different social and religious backgrounds would work. Clearly it doesn't and now that the horse has well and truly bolted the EU is caught like a rabbit in the headlights without a clue as to what to do next (just like it didn't know in the first place)

Sorry, but why has she dropped a big one? A world leader that tries to help people that have been displaced by war and civil unrest and we think that is a bad thing.
What is the alternative in your world?
When you pair really get going, given Barna's sometimes isolated view, this image springs to mind:
