🇩🇪 Two thirds of Germans say Merz's chancellorship has failed, and a majority want him to resign
According to an Ipsos poll for Der Spiegel, 67% of Germans agree that the chancellorship of Friedrich Merz has failed. 48% agree fully and another 19% somewhat agree.
The verdict is harshest in eastern Germany, where 80% share that view, compared with 64% in the west.
majority also want him gone: 58% say Merz should step down as chancellor and as leader of the Christian Democratic Union. Only 11% firmly oppose his resignation.
There is no obvious successor. Asked to choose between three conservative candidates, 43% picked none of them. Bavarian leader Markus Söder got 20%, North Rhine-Westphalia premier Hendrik Wüst 16% and Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt 5%.
