Saxony's schools have problems such as a lack of teachers and a lack of lessons. The AfD sees another problem - the German flag is missing.

The AfD wants to see the German flag flying in front of every public school in Saxony. Almost every country in the world proudly displays its own flag - and not just during the World Cup, explained party and parliamentary group leader Jörg Urban. Germany must return to a normal approach to its flag. For this reason, the AfD will continue to submit applications to fly flags on public buildings. Urban announced such a motion for schools.

AfD proposes Simson moped as intangible cultural heritage

The AfD parliamentary group also wants to propose the GDR moped Simson as intangible cultural heritage. "The Simson is not just a moped. It is a symbol of East German culture, of freedom, independence and youth," explained parliamentarian Mike Moncsek. He was always amazed at how many young people carried on this legacy from the GDR era. Especially in rural regions, the Simson still has cult status today.
