German election: CDU, Merz drop in poll after AfD vote
Summary
Support for Germany’s CDU/CSU alliance has dropped to 28% after candidate Friedrich Merz relied on far-right AfD votes to pass a border policy resolution, breaking a long-standing political taboo.
Merz’s chancellor approval ratings also fell to 22%, tying with Green candidate Robert Habeck.
Nationwide protests followed the CDU-AfD cooperation, and parliament later rejected Merz’s immigration bill.
Meanwhile, Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s SPD holds at 16%, and the AfD remains steady at 20%.

in reply to Idiot/Savant • • •Shoehorning in minor party policy, via coalition agreements, is about as far as we can get from a robust way to do constitutional reform. This was one of my core criticisms of the Treaty Violation Bill, and the Regulatory Standards Bill. But it also applies to Te Pāti Māori's proposal for a Te Tiriti guardian official who can singlehandedly overrule a duly elected Parliament.
I totally get the motivation for this. But I suspect we can come up with something more futureproof.
