It's one of those little mysteries still left over from the German election....AfD's former chief....Frauke Petry.
Over the last six months of the campaign, AfD kinda pushed her aside...yet she ran for a particular district, and won. She'll be sitting in the new Bundestag. The day after the election....she resigned from AfD. She has no intention of giving up the seat.
So today through several new news sites in Germany....it's becoming apparent that Petry will create her own party (kinda like Macron).
Name of the party? The Blue Party.
Some speculation says that this idea was brewed up months ago.
The slant or platform of the Blue Party? There's only one single line known at present. "Free and conserative".
Odds of people drifting out of the AfD to the Blue Party? On my own part, I think that at least twenty members (standing within the Bundestag) will drift out to the Blue Party. How this all ends up in four years? Big unknown.
