For the first time, a politician from the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) has taken the office of state parliament president in a German federal state, according to taz's weekly podcast 'Reingehen'. The episode examines what the election of an AfD representative to one of the highest parliamentary posts means for German politics, as the far-right party continues to gain ground in state parliaments.
Why now: An AfD politician holding the state parliament presidency for the first time marks a historic shift in German politics.
