A petition signed by 30,000 people was enough for the German bank to hinder the party from receiving donations.

German bank Berliner Volksbank has closed the donation account of the right-wing antiglobalist opposition party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) following a petition by a group calling itself Grandmothers Against the Right (Omas gegen Rechts).

The group launched their petition in May, stating that the bank, which claims to stand for tolerance and against right-wing extremism, should not be allowed to accommodate an account for the AfD. The organisation handed over 33,500 signatures to the bank on Wednesday, July 3rd, to demand the termination of the account, and after meeting the chairman of the board of directors, Carsten Jung, Grandmothers Against the Right announced that their venture has been successful.

Though the Berliner Volksbank itself did not confirm the closure of AfD’s account, citing banking secrecy, the fact that donations can no longer be transferred is clearly visible on the party’s website. The only donation option left for supporters of the party is sending money through PayPal.

Gregor Hackmack, a board member of the online petition platform innn.it, through which the signatures were collected, justified the initiative by saying that the AfD is “outside the constitutional order.” It was about reminding the bank of its “values,” Hackmack said, adding that the Berliner Volksbank’s move could now “be an example for other banks,” such as the Berliner Sparkasse, which manages the account of the AfD’s Berlin state association.

The party has not yet publicly commented on the account closure.

AfD, which is currently the second strongest party in Germany and one of the most popular among young voters, is being hounded by the political elite and mainstream media for its anti-immigration stance: there have been calls for the party to be banned for allegedly endangering the democratic order, and it is legally being spied upon by the intelligence services.

The bank account termination is not the first of its kind. As we previously reported, Tino Chrupalla, the co-leader of the party, stated last year that Postbank, a retail banking division of financial institution Deutsche Bank, had terminated his account because he’s an AfD member. He said this not only indicates how the AfD is “excluded and marginalised” from society but also that people are no longer permitted to express their opinions freely in Germany.

De-banking has become a phenomenon all over the Western world, famously brought to the media’s attention by British politician Nigel Farage whose account at the British private bank Coutts was closed due to his political views.

New polling results show the German far-left government is delivering exactly the opposite of what Germans want on migration policy.

A new poll reveals a German public overwhelmingly dissatisfied with the left-liberal ruling government’s migration policy, with the vast majority of Germans clearly turning against mass immigration.

The Insa poll shows that 74 percent of respondents say the government is failing to take enough action against immigration, while only 17 percent of voters say the government is taking “sufficient’ action.

In addition, 72 percent of respondents say it is right to carry out asylum procedures outside the EU’s external borders, while only 16 percent say the measure is wrong.

The poll also shows that Germans are not only against illegal immigration, but want lower levels of all immigration, including legal immigrants. The poll shows 69 percent of respondents would like (rather) less migration to Germany, while only 11 percent would like (rather) more migration. Another 14 percent do not care and 6 percent refused to answer.

“Green voters (38 percent) are the least likely to say that they are in favor of less migration, but even among this group, a relative majority wants fewer or rather fewer immigrants: Only 29 percent of Green voters want (rather) more migration,” writes Bild.

BSW voters (87 percent) and AfD supporters (92 percent) were the most likely in favor of less migration, according to the poll.

The results show the incredible disconnect between what Germans want and what they are getting from the government. The “traffic-light coalition” that rules the country, the Social Democrats (SPD), Greens, and the Liberals (FDP) have moved forward with a program that will expand benefits to migrants, provide expedited citizenship to millions of newcomers, a relaxation of immigration rules, and plans to boost immigration from a range of non-EU countries. 

In addition, the federal government has presided over an explosion of foreigner crime, with a record high of 41 percent of all crimes committed by foreigners in 2023, including 6 out of 10 violent crimes.

Furthermore, migrants cost Germany €48.8 billion in 2023, meaning they cost the state as much as nearly the entire German army, known as the Bundeswehr.

UK Election updates from European Conservative.

Hello, and welcome to The European Conservative’s UK election live coverage.

• Farage wins in Clacton
• Sunak holds seat, but concedes election
• Starmer gives victory speech

Labour has officially won the election and is likely to boast a parliamentary majority of 170 seats.

Not, despite what its leader (and next prime minister) Sir Keir Starmer says, because the public is supportive of what it has to offer. Indeed, Starmer’s own seat was won on a low turnout and with a significantly lower vote share than at the last election. And the party has lost a good number of its frontbenchers.

Rather, because of how unpopular the Conservatives have made themselves, and thanks to the impressive rise of Reform which, despite winning just four seats, has picked up millions of votes across the country. Also, due to the near-total collapse of the SNP in Scotland.

The Tories have done terribly, and their leader (for now) Rishi Sunak has apologised for this. Many of their leading figures are gone, and some of the more decent, genuinely conservative Tories have lost their seats too.

But it is still the Conservatives—rather than the Liberal Democrats—who will form the next Opposition. And they have held onto enough seats to be able to put forward a ‘serious’ challengeto Labour at the next election.

There are still seats to be declared, and we will continue to bring you further updates here.
