them. (speaking german). the arrival even spawned studies, local academic and is looking at their impact here. they are not experienced with any kind of lifestyle or ethnic diversity before 2012. the proportion of migrants is below 3%, and that is not what it is like in west german city ‘s example. they don't have any knowledge about them, they are quite easy to be many dilated by the right wing extremist parties. do you think there is a problem with racism in a town like this? yes, there is a problem with racism all over germany. and it is increasing. it was never a way, it grew and grew. watching as these use

changes and fold at this family. mum daniella, dad dirk who has led his whole life in gera, and their children. and on a trip to the city centre, dirk and daniella find refugees are already a key political issue in gera. vying for their future votes are both the far right afd, who are broadly anti— islam and anti— refugee. and a different party on the left. they are pro— refugees. it is now december. and that means the first time ever, this family gets to experience a german christmas market.

gera, a demonstration by a far right protest group expanding all over germany. (chanting in german). the group ‘s name is" deportment". they are saying that people should go to the toilet in refugee homes. are we allowed to film... can you stop blocking our camera 7 allowed to film... can you stop blocking our camera? (speakingin german). the black and the white, our

northern prussia and the white and the read our southern prussia. i'm here because i love my city, i love my country... i am worried about my family. iam my country... i am worried about my family. i am worried about my race, the german people. they lose their normal blood. so the crowd is shouting now" we don't want refugee homes" 200 against the refugees. dirk wasn't demonstrating in gera, but his views towards refugees have hardened since i was last year. and he thinks it is unfair that germany is welcoming so many competitive uk.

—— compare to the uk. lots of people will argue that germany is doing the right thing by being more generous. how many children are here? we have 299, and 12 from other countries. and how many refugee children? three. some of gera's other referee —— residents come like this teacher, art adapting to life more co mforta ble art adapting to life more comfortable in. (speaking in german). this is nine-year-old marmot, daham's son, who hasjust started school. his classes entirely

in german. you talking to people refugees, about who they are, where they have come from? people here think that it is too much, there are problems for us, and so on, and so on, but! problems for us, and so on, and so on, but i haven't got a problem with it. people are not —— children are not responsible for all the problems around the world. and so we have to work on the children. i want to help them, that's it. the increasing hostility towards refugees in gera is a worry for the family. there have already been ten attacks here on refugees in their homes. and after school, talk turns

to returning to syria. a subject daham and his wife don't agree on. you want to go back? so this is a big debate? she wants to go back and you want to stay. daham is

da ham is still learning daham is still learning german, still training for a job, desperate to work. 0ne one thing is certain. the german political mainstream is set to move to the right. 0ne one and a half years on, and daham finally has a job he was waiting for. everything looks so complicated. stephane is daham's new boss. we had the idea of actually looking among those people who came in 2015, 2016 who we assumed that would have been quite a few qualified workers. why did you think that? because the saying is syrians are the engineers

of the middle east. by of the middle east. by late 2017, da ham of the middle east. by late 2017, daham daughter is about a foot taller, and the population of gera is visibly changing. the number of people defined in the city as foreign is doubled from around 2500 to almost 5000, a third are syrian. when did you open? 5000, a thirt the syrian. when did 5000, a thirt the family. when did 5000, a thirt the family have n did 5000, a thirt the family have been allocated a bigger house now, because there is a new baby. their first lawn in germany. may i sit next to you? you are so german! apart from her getting noisier... how has light changed since i was

last year? —— how has life changed? september's german elections or huge gains forfar september's german elections or huge gains for far right party the afp, alternative for germany. in gera, they won more votes than anger merkel‘s party, who won. there is another one. a party with posters like these took almost 30%. look how big you are! hello. nice to see you again. dirk and danielle don't usually vote. they haven't in

decades. this time, they both turned out. but does the government need to do to make you feel happier, to make you feel like people are integrating more? do you think your views are racist? for daham, for very different reasons, life is also increasingly frustrating. he got asylum for three yea rs. frustrating. he got asylum for three years. the rest of his family have a different immigration status. a protection status. and have to have it renewed every four months. it feels like life is still very

difficult. you think it would be any better in your eyes? do you feel like this whole journey is easierfor men do you feel like this whole journey is easier for men than women? do you feel like you've had to make

a huge sacrifice? hi there. we're going to look at the satellite picture, first of all, because we have quite a typical autumnal setup, really. cool north—westerly winds working across the atlantic meeting milder southerly winds, a weather front in between. what of course is not normal is this — hurricane 0phelia, a category 2 hurricane, near the azores, with winds gusting to 120 miles an hour. that will be affecting our weather early next week. but for the time being, we have these warm winds wafting their way across the british isles, dragging out that warm air for the time of year. so, over the next days, we could see temperatures go as high as 2a degrees, if we get some sunny spells. these temperatures, by the way, pretty good, actually, for late july.

except it's not latejuly, it's 0ctober. and those temperatures are really quite incredible for the time of year. now, it's a mild start to the day everywhere with temperatures into double figures. we've got some rain around, though, northern ireland, into north—west england, and south—west scotland, as well, seeing that wet weather. look at these temperatures — 16 degrees as we start the day. that's where temperatures should peak at this time of year. as we go through the day, this band of rain will slowly push its way northwards, whilst easing. the cloud across england and wales, while quite low at times across wales and south—west england, with some hill fog patches in the morning, but the cloud will tend to shrink as we go on through the afternoon, to allow some bright spells through. in the best of the sunshine, i think temperatures could get to 22, maybe 23 degrees celsius towards eastern england during saturday afternoon. 0vernight, rain turns heavier for a time across northern ireland, but more especially in western scotland, where it will be a wet old night. another mild night, saturday night, these are the kind of minimum temperatures, 13, 1a degrees, something like that. now, for sunday, there's a better chance that we will see more in the way of cloud breaks

across england and wales. you'll notice, though, the rain in northern scotland. when the rain sticks, it could do across western scotland, through the day, it will not feel especially warm. temperatures here into the teens. but when we see the sunshine coming out, we could see highs of 23 or 2a degrees celsius. so it will be a very warm day for late october indeed. beyond that, we have to look again at the azores. this is hurricane 0phelia. this is be working in a north—eastward direction. probably got another 2a hours as a hurricane before it turns into a normal area of low pressure. please bear in mind that the track of this low pressure could change, but nevertheless, you'll notice that we've got some very strong winds coming our way through monday and tuesday as well. firmly in the firing line is ireland. northern ireland and scotland could also be impacted. the winds may well be damaging. but bear in mind the track could change, so the strong winds could affect other areas of uk, as well. and that's your weather. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe.
