AfD ban? Bremen's red-red-green party warns of “enemies of the constitution” – and wants to give the federal government a leg up. A possible ban on the party has been controversial for a long time.
At the end of January, the Federal Council accepted a petition entitled “Check AfD ban!” which around 800,000 people had signed since mid-August. But the hurdles for this are high. In the end, only the Federal Constitutional Court can ban a party - this is not at the discretion of a parliamentary majority.
