/// Politicians fear the crisis will play into the hands of right-wing radicalism. ///

/// Around 10,000 people came together in opposition to the protest by the “Hooligans Against Salafists” (HOGESA) group which was calling for borders to be closed and plans for new mosques to be banned. The group’s members include right-wing militants and neo-Nazis. ///

Mr aog
In this link it is interesting to note which faction of naughty boys and girls the Cologne police are directing their water cannon at.Not the right wing but the great unwashed from the left.
I hope the Home Secretary reads the Telegraph. She may learn something.
Those types were included in the protesters rather than were all of them. But reporting needs careful wording to avoid bias and pushing a particular opinion.
Police have reported a spike in racist attacks against refugees, with 285 offences against asylum seekers' shelters reported in the third quarter alone, compared with 198 for the whole of last year.

As Chancellor Angela Merkel has grappled with the situation, she has seen support dwindle while the popularity of the anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany (AfD) has risen. //

Where on earth was Merkel about 25 years ago when Germans were torching hostels containing Turkish Labourers on a daily basis.
She obviously hasn't a clue about the mindset of the electorate and a short memory if she imagined her showboating would pass off peacefully in her own country.
Fears over too much immigration are genuine and people are allowed to protest about it.
Unfortunately, such demonstrations are almost always hijacked. And the hijackers ARE extremists. The genuine voice of ordinary people is drowned out by the far right.
If you have ever seen a demonstration by the English Defence League, far from being presentative of the concerned public about immigration, they are drunken yobs by and large who 20 years ago were spoiling football.

Think you may of been on holiday but several weeks ago there were photographs of German citizens demonstrating peacefully with their National flags. There were family groups,people in wheelchairs etc. No way could they be likened to EDL or any right wing fascist group. Just people concerned how their country was to pan out for the future.
Retrocop
I did say 'almost always' hijacked. There will be exceptions.

It is the same as genuine protests about the (usually Conservative) Government are hijacked by anarchists.

It is unfortunate, but mass protests have a habit of being derailed by the hard of thinking.
"Fears over too much immigration are genuine and people are allowed to protest about it. "

you mean in the same way they do on here and get called all sorts of names, because they wont fall in line with most of the fascist like lefties
If you can be bothered...trawl back over post where people have mentioned support for UKIP or anti immigration and see the sort of responses and names that mikey444 for example spews out...
Sorry about the above link. I cannot seem to get the youtube url but I meant the second youtube photo down in the link provided re German demos.

Interesting to see that EDL's only Muslim member was ushered away, after trying to pull a Union Flag out of his bag.

/// The court heard how Rafiq claimed to have been threatened by 10 Asian men at the rally before launching into a tirade of swearing. ///

/// Prosecuting Mike Vittis said the man tried pulling a union flag from his bag before being ushered away from the scene by police. ///


//Right-Wing Radicalism, Xenophobic Groups//

Sounds awfully like Islam.

Mr aog
That is the very one. Thank you
No right wing German Fascist thugs there but ordinary citizens voicing their concerns. Even the Politzei seem to be enjoying the day out.
