AfD leader Ulrich Siegmund unveils 10-point agenda for first 100 days in Saxony-Anhalt
AfD candidate Ulrich Siegmund presented a ten-item plan he would try to implement in his first 100 days if his party takes power in Saxony-Anhalt after securing about 44% of the vote.
After the Alternative for Germany captured roughly 44% of the vote in Saxony-Anhalt, Ulrich Siegmund outlined a ten-point “Vision 2026” for his first 100 days in office. He aims to withdraw from the inter-state media agreement and scrap the €18.36 monthly licence fee for public broadcasters such as ARD and ZDF, substituting a tax-based financing scheme. The plan also calls for displaying the national flag on public buildings and a “think German” campaign to boost patriotism.
Siegmund would offer a 50% subsidy toward driver-licence costs for volunteers in disaster relief and emergency services, and he pledges immediate deportations of people without legal residence, while excluding legally employed foreigners. In schools, he proposes separate classes for refugee children with no prospect of staying, and he wants municipalities to run compulsory work programmes for asylum seekers. Additional measures include cutting state funding for political foundations, consolidating ministries and eliminating one unnamed ministry, and launching a review of the state’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Why it matters
The agenda signals how a far-right party could reshape media, immigration and public spending if it governs a German state.
