of alexander garland here in parliament so it raises questions is somebody out to get the german chancellor here and who is the head of the german intelligence domestic intelligence services anyway to get involved and so his future hangs in the balance and there is yet more evidence of a lot of internal pressure playing out on the german chancellor. will be coming back to we're going to play a sound bite from xander garland were he addresses the unrest that accompanied the far right protests and he chooses chancellor merkel of using it to quash criticism of her migration policy. you behave as if we only had a choice between multiculturalism and fascism apparently it doesn't occur to you that it's possible to live like the swiss or the danes or the swedes. and i'm sorry i missed it instead. ms merkel when you were forced to take back the accusation that people were hunted down you said there was hatred. first of all hatred is not a crime and second it usually has causes why was there to use your language hatred because the people of chemists are bad people or because they feel themselves to

even within her own government the opening sentence almost of the far right if tea party leader alexander garland was a quote from going to michael's own interior minister called migration the mother of all political problems so clearly there's a sense that on that issue they feel they have an ally there and what almost gets lost in all of this is that this is supposed to be about what the future holds what future policies there are and there we heard from the german chancellor almost buried in her speech today that that admission that there were mistakes made in the migration crisis particularly not supporting the regions around iraq and syria stopping people from coming and that yet another crisis could be looming unless the german government and the europe as a whole makes africa a priority so these are the this is the big overarching issue but a lot of that gets drowned out by the noise over the current migration policy particularly the far right if you show it we should say the other big topic on the agenda today is the head of germany's domestic intelligence service and he is under a lot of

chancellor angela merkel in a moment she's going to be able to of course respond perhaps to what alexander garland has been saying but it's do you think she will take the bait yes i think she will respond on those issues but i suspect that. to refer to those things that her government has been doing that are positive for people that are concerned about their situation so i think she's going to try and emphasize as well she will not spend too much time responding to the dia i think she will just simply defend a position how much pressure is chancellor merkel under right now and particularly given what has transpired in germany over the past couple of weeks well what's happened obviously is that the f.d.a. has in fact profited from the situation the a of d. in the most recent polls is making gains is getting close to twenty percent of support amongst voters while i'm going back as conservatives are losing civil it's at the same time you have to say eighty percent of people in germany still support policies that are opposed and vehemently opposed most of them to the a of. a but also within i'm going
