Nothing has changed, on the contrary. The number of offences, the number of members in this circle, and the readiness to use violence has continued to rise." The extreme right are especially is almost always a: anti-Semites: "Over 90 per cent of the offences in connection with anti-Semitism are attributed to right-wing extremism." A short Pause, and then: "This is a disgrace to our country."

Seehofer do not forget to mention the now officially defunct "wings" of the right-wing populists of the "Alternative for Germany" (AfD), the extremist group, therefore, the parliamentary leader in Thuringia, Björn Höcke. 2018 the AfD were wing and a youth organisation of the AfD in the protection of the Constitution report has not yet been mentioned, now Seehofer estimates that the number of followers of these groups to around 7000, a small proportion of the total extreme right-wing potential in Germany of more than 32,000 supporters. 13.000 of which are considered ready to use violence.
