The far-right AfD widened its lead over the conservative bloc by four percentage points in a poll published on Saturday.
Support for Germany's far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) has risen to a new record. In a poll published on Saturday, the party widened its lead over the conservative bloc by four percentage points.
Analysts attribute the rise to economic uncertainty and the ongoing debate over immigration. The governing parties have been losing support for months.
The Chancellor insists that there will be no coalition negotiations with AfD, but tension within German politics is palpable.
