"In mid-October, Merz said that the federal government is correcting previous failures in migration policy and making progress, "but of course we still have this problem with our "Stadtbild" [lit. cityscape, a reference to urban spaces], which is why the Federal Minister of the Interior is now working to make it possible to carry out repatriations on a very large scale.""
"Growing insecurity What effect is the debate having on citizens? Opinion pollsters at infratest-dimap have been looking into this question. Between November 3 and 5, 1,300 Germans eligible to vote were surveyed for public broadcaster ARD in the November edition of the monthly Deutschlandtrend. Half of the respondents said they feel unsafe in public places, on the streets and on public transportation."
Friedrich Merz linked migration and public safety, calling for large-scale repatriations and distinguishing needed labor migrants from those without residency who break rules. His statements provoked both support and strong protests across parties and civil society. Polling of 1,300 eligible voters between November 3 and 5 found half of respondents now feel unsafe in public spaces, a rate double that of eight years earlier. Greatest fears concern theft and verbal attacks in public; physical or sexual assault and terrorism are less commonly feared. Statistically, people are more likely to suffer violence at home than in public.
