For the first time since 1945 a far right party will enter the German Parliament – so who are the AfD?

Despite links to Austria’s far-right Freedom Party, the AfD performed well in state elections last year in Germany, and caused shockwaves when they beat Angela Merkel’s centre-right CDU in her home...

In a week of incredible soap opera antics at the White House, you may have missed the barely reported testimony of a businessman named William Browder to the US Senate Judiciary Hearing on Russian meddling in the US election. Whether Donald Trump’s weird tweets, weirder attack on transexuals in the armed forces and Anthony Scaramucci’s spectacularly bizarre ill-fated eight days as White House Communications Director can be put down to stupidity or conspiracy to deflect from some of the most...
