Alastair Bunkall: Sky News European Correspondent on Germany's far-right party AfD winning the state election in Saxony-Anhalt
from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · host Newstalk ZB
Germany's far-right AfD is piling pressure on parties to work with them after a state election win. Preliminary results show the party is three seats short of an outright majority in Saxony-Anhalt. However most German political parties refuse to work with the AfD. If it finds support, it would be the first far-right party to govern a German state since World War II. Sky News European Correspondent Alastair Bunkall told Ryan Bridge there's a chance they could try and govern as a minority, but even then they'd probably still need an agreement to make sure anything they wanted to pass got across the line.
