Berlin (AFP) - Nearly 40 percent of German voters think Chancellor Angela Merkel should quit over her liberal asylum policy after almost 1.1 million newcomers arrived last year, a poll showed Friday.
As the mood in Germany has shifted from a euphoric welcome for people fleeing war and persecution last September to growing doubts about the country's ability to accommodate and integrate the record influx, the popular Merkel has come under increasing pressure.
However, the poll for Focus news magazine conducted by the independent opinion research institute Insa among 2,047 German citizens showed that a larger share -- nearly 45 percent -- did not think Merkel should resign.
Among members of her conservative Christian Union bloc, nearly 27 percent said they wanted Merkel, who has been in power since 2005, to step down.

So, who replaces her? Whoever it is, it'll be someone who replaces her ridiculous immigration plan that is destroying German culture.
She's toast.

As the mood in Germany has shifted from a euphoric welcome for people fleeing war and persecution If the German people initially were "euphoric" about admitting Syrian fanatics, then the liberal German press pulled off a propaganda coup worthy of Goebbels.

At least 50% of that 60% which would be 30% are probably too afraid to speak out against merkel.
The final 30% are brain dead suicidal libtards.

I was told emphatically here on FR that the majority of Germans were up in arms about this and wanted her run out of town. This, despite a German friend of mine thinking the situation was perfectly OK and that Germans needed to have compassion. Turns out I was right!
