The German parliament has narrowly passed a motion urging tough restrictions on immigration that was highly controversial because it was backed by the far-right Alternative für Deutschland party.

The motion was brought by the conservative opposition CDU-CSU and backed by, among others, the AfD, breaking a longstanding taboo on cooperation with the anti-immigration party.

MPs passed it in a vote on Wednesday with 348 votes in favour, 345 against and 10 abstentions.

Liberals working together with fascists while socialists are the only ones who are standing against it?! That's never happened before, especially not in Germany. But I'm sure we'll just have to say "Oh no, who could have seen this coming", apologize and then ban the fascist AND socialist parties again and everything will be fine again.
