Over a million people protested in Germany against the far-right AfD party after it was revealed that party members discussed mass deportation plans with extremists. The protests took place in around 100 locations. The co-chairwoman of AfD, Alice Weidel, suggested holding a 'Dexit' vote to leave the European Union, citing the UK's exit as a model. Recent polls indicate a drop in support for AfD following the nationwide protests. The rise of the AfD has prompted calls for its ban, but some argue that unmasking the party's policy failings is a better approach.
