Germany: the “Semaphore” majority is no longer the majority in the country
In Germany the traffic light, red (SPD), yellow (FDP) and green is no longer fashionable and is no longer the majority in the country. In the INSA's Sunday survey, the "traffic light" coalition, which has been in power for almost a year, reached its lowest value since the 2021 federal elections . In the Sunday trend, which the opinion research institute collects weekly for "Bild am Sonntag", SPD, "Greens" and FDP together only 44% and therefore a parliamentary majority would clearly be missing. The SPD loses one point compared to the previous week, it would get 20 percent of the votes. Even the "Greens" are worse by one point with 17 percent. The FDP remains at 7%. The strongest force is still the sister parties CDU/CSU with an unchanged 28 percent. The AfD (15%) is hot on the heels of the "Greens". Other polls see the AfD nationwide at 16%.
The botched mix of socialist, green and liberal policies, together with the economic problems caused by the war situation, are rewarding not so much the CDU, which is still far from its peak, but rather AfD and even the Linke is being revived, which would exceed the limit of 5% to return to parliament. We will see if the next Land elections will make this trend explicit and mark the decline of the SPD.
