Manfred Weber

Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC News EuropeLatest broadcast: on BBC News Asia Pacific

Sarah Montague speaks to German MEP, Manfred Weber. Germany's voters have made it clear they are unhappy with their Chancellor Angela Merkel. In two regional elections this month her conservative party, the CDU, suffered a humiliating defeat. They're in a union with Bavaria's CSU. And they're not happy with her either - warning of a split unless she changes policy on immigration. Manfred Weber is an MEP for the CSU and also leads the largest political group in the European Parliament - the EPP. Is this the end for Angela Merkel? And what effect has her refugee policy had on the way Germany will be governed? Show less
