AfD’s new state MPs include ex-Stasi officer, former porn actor, neopagans and neo-Nazis
The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party's new Saxony‑Anhalt state legislators include a former East German secret‑police officer, a former adult‑film performer, neopagan adherents and individuals with neo‑Nazi links. Their presence heightens scrutiny as the far‑right seeks to join the state government in regional politics, prompting criticism from opposition and rights groups over normalising extremist elements.
