Germany is facing a moment of reckoning: A far-right party is predicted to win a state election for the first time since World War Two. Alternative for Deutschland, better known as the AfD, have been called racists, Nazis and a threat to national security. Their poster boy is a 35-year-old former perfume salesman, Ulrich Siegmund, who is on course to be elected the state leader of Saxony-Anhalt in east Germany. Europe correspondent Alistair Bunkall has tracked him down to understand why people are voting for him. #germany #farright #afd #skynews SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel for more videos: http://www.youtube.com/skynews Follow us on X: https://twitter.com/skynews Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/skynews Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/skynews Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@skynews For more content go to http://news.sky.com and download our apps: Apple https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/sky-news/id316391924?mt=8 Android https://p
