A number of anti-immigration marches took place across Germany last night as part of the 鈥楶egida鈥� movement, with demonstrators protesting against the 鈥業slamification鈥� of their country. Around 18,000 demonstrators took part in a protest in Dresden, but in other German cities such as Berlin and Cologne, the demonstrators were outnumbered by counter-protestors who waved placards with slogans such as 鈥淚 heart immigration鈥�. How do these protests fit into what's going on in German politics at the moment? And are these anti-Islam/anti-immigration protests a sign of the rise of the far right more widely across Europe?
