Mike.

They did indeed do much better than people saw coming.
voice-verified
I mean, we even though everyone's saying look, so this is just one of sixteen regions in Germany and it's the smallest and the poorest.
voice-verified
I mean, we're talking about a region that has only well about two point one million people living there, it is still a political earthquake.
voice-verified
Mostly because, yes, they got more votes than they expected, but because the whole of sort of German
voice-verified
Post Second World War was that there was always this centre right or centre left that created the foundation of political consensus.
voice-verified
So now that has been swept out of the way and that is the earthquake which everyone is still I have to tell you about still wandering on a little days thinking, How did this happen?
voice-verified
Why did this happen?
voice-verified
It will be difficult.
voice-verified
They what they're hoping for is this other sort of far extremist party, the BDW, m which has got five seats, that they might like the idea of coming into power.
voice-verified
So they might sort of say, Yes, we'll come in with you, or we'll sort of support you.
voice-verified
The other thing that the AFD in Saxonyan House is saying is that there will be a few of the centre right
voice-verified
politicians from the CDU, from Councillor Mertz's party, who will want to jump ship because they will see that their time in government, in local government is over, they will want to jump ship and be part of what they see at least is a new movement.
voice-verified
Wow.
voice-verified
It really does, mostly because you remember Fredrik Merz came to power, he's been in power now for sixteen months, he promised a change.
voice-verified
He said that he knew how to run the economy, he knew about business, he's a millionaire, he came out and said very clearly, look, we're going to get it right.
voice-verified
We're now going to get the economy back on its feet.
voice-verified
Well, it's not back on its feet.
voice-verified
Far from it.
