1:03 am
most of the people here in saxon, the trusted us. yeah. and zach seen on such knowledge. yeah, probably didn't the test to protest, you know, instead they gave us a strong result with our support. so, but it could still face problems, you know, if the current regional alliance failed to secure an absolute majority for re coalition deal, the conservatives could face the prospect of having to negotiate with the left wing populace b, s. w to keep the a if the pay to main screen policies phase another challenge in 3 weeks when a 3rd eastern german state london book also votes for a new parliament. the a, if these leading pulse there about the populace b, s w is suppose, that force to be reckoned with the regional politic to landscape in the east is becoming increasing on predictability for some analysis. now i'm joined by dan huff . he's a professor of politics at the university of sussex in the united kingdom, with a special focus on german politics. thank you for joining me. this is the 1st time
1:04 am
that a far right party has won a state election in germany since the 2nd world war. why is this happening now? well, there's lots of different reasons, some of sure to some of much longer to the most obvious reasons to do with ukraine . many of these in germany are deeply unhappy with the way the german government has dealt with the issue of ukraine. they are arguably a little bit more sympathetic towards russia. then those in west, in germany does a lot of unhappiness to do with the current federal government. and all 3 policies in the federal government performed abysmally in these 2 states elections. much longer to this, dissatisfaction weighs the fort i from german unification, which is 9 whatever 30 years ago. but many in the field deeply unhappy with the way that unification has developed this not really want to go back to the judy all, but they don't have protests about some of the things that they feel i've been
1:05 am
a ended up with them getting this to an end of the wedge. so why so why so much anger at the current german government beyond the war in ukraine? a while it covered german government is, is very new in the sense that it's 3 boxes on gym and governments of knots in the past. been 3 policies working together, that'd be 2 boxes. and on the face of it you might think, well, you know, one extra product you might not make that much difference. but the present gym and government has been very, very, and effective at getting more or less. and the thing done, and it was a very unhappy with public services. they're very unhappy with the the, the way that money is spent or not spent in germany. there's a real issue with the budget. there's a gaping hole this that the german government has not been able to fail. and whatever the german government is trying to do, it's either failed or is never even cut off the grinding trying to achieve these things. so many in the east fail that it's, it's just not been effective,
1:06 am
getting anything done and it's even made things worse. so it's 32 percent of the vote going to a party, the a f d that is considered in the state of the range and extremist organization by a german domestic intelligence. what is the chance of this party actually governing and they are in the range? yeah, so that's always the 1st name and date because the other part is not going to touch it. and despite what people are getting on my claim that they can make all the offices. i like that the other policies are not going to go anywhere near it. and the, if the guys are well aware of that, the problem for all of the other policies is that there is not really any of the coalitions that naturally looked like they might look. there's an awful lot of slots and can it's going to have to be, you know, that i have to be i that if any coalition is going to come together entering,
1:07 am
enduring it, that's a goal. so there's a real problem. no one wants to work with the ask day, but no one has any real valuable alternative to get a government together so. so that means we got, you know, we, we, we got a real problem townhouse. he's a professor of politics at the university of sussex. thank you. my pleasure. well, mass demonstrations have taken place across israel, pressuring the government to make a deal with hum us to free hostages still held there and gaza. the protests come after israel's military side. 6 hostages were killed by their homeless captors shortly before soldiers found them in a tunnel. the anger and frustration boil over on the street, the teller, the police clash with demonstrators. they've come out in the 10s of thousands to demand an immediate sizes ceasefire deals. that would allow the
