Merkel TANKS in the polls: Chancellor ratings slump as German anger grows
express.co.uk ^ | Thu, Nov 23, 2017 | Jon Rogers and Monika Pallenberg

The SPON election trend was compiled online from November 20-21 in co-operation with the polling institute Civey.

The sample included more than 5,000 respondents. The SPON election trend before the end of the negotiations took place in the period from November 12-19. That sample consisted of more than 10,000 respondents - the statistical error was 2.5 per cent.

The inability of Mrs Merkel to secure sufficient support has seen Germany plunged into uncertainty as she has been unable to establish a so-called Jamaica alliance with the Greens and the Free Democrats (FDP). The situation has resulted in the co-founder of the Greens, Hans-Christian Ströbele, saying he could not envisage the chancellor staying in her role for much longer.

In an interview with Swiss website Watson, he said: "The end of the chancellorship of Angela Merkel has already been announced by the outcome of the general election.

"Now Merkel's political end can indeed come very quickly. In my opinion, Mrs Merkel will not be able to stay at the top of the government for much longer."

Many in leadership roles over there have been planing this for years, as well as here, although using primarily South Americans. Re: Kallegeri plan. And yes, they (leaders) do plan on self preservation, we’ll see how it works out.

Germans have a deep sense of guilt drummed into them over World War 2. That’s part of the problem. I have family there & things are worse than is being published in the press.

As punishment from God, a mustache will grow under her nose. But who was the a-hole who handed her the German flag?

She got rid of that flag faster than she hits the all-you-can-eat buffet.

Why is Sweden not in the same political boat, compared to present day Germany? All pro-conservative, anti-terrorism European political parties and individuals should be doing well, throughout all of Europe, if Leftist Politics and if Political Correctness wasn’t so deeply embedded throughout Europe and throughout the entire world.

I would suggest that, just like in the US, most politicians adopt positions on issues set by MSM. Politicians have the mistaken belief that their prospects for election or re-election are enhanced if MSM treats them favorably, but what these politicians are missing is the media is distrusted as much as the political class.

Don’t be kind. She’s a traitor to the West and should step down and kill herself.

One rape too many. One assault too many. Savages preparing to repeat the attack on a Christmas market from last year. murkul obeying bammy’s orders to let savages in.
The Germans have finally had enough.
