Petry not to sit with AfD

Frauke Petry a leading member of the AfD annoynced in Berlin last evening that she will not be sitting with AfD parliamentarians in the Bundestag.

It comes as a great shock to the party.

Petry was directly elected to the parliament, in other words, she was elected under her own name and not on the party list.

The AfD is now the strongest party in Saxony.

In the days of the former GDR Saxony was jokingly known as the 'Valley of the Clueless' as it was the only part of the GDR that could not receive West German television.
