Hey, no. Come here. Come. There you have a picture already. These people must leave our city. Out and about in Gelsenkirchen's troubled neighborhood with Angeli Zacharias. Please, please, please. What? Church window, actually. and the neighbor's cat complaining. Yes, I'm saying, these people are being supported by the German taxpayer, obviously, and everything here is being left to decay. So it is really frightening. The Germans are fed up. Look at what it looks like here. Germany, the Ruhr region, shaped for decades by coal, steel, and hard work. Old headframes still remind us of this long-gone era today. The Ruhr region is in transition, economically, socially, and visibly in the appearance of its many cities. Mines and headframes, a working-class mentality, soccer, and kiosks made the "Pot" an unmistakable part of Germany. But this familiar image has changed. Today, the consequences of decades of uncontrolled mass migration shape people's daily lives here. For example, one of Germany's largest mosques was built right in the middle of Duisburg. In addition to the 58 Islamic houses of prayer already existing in the city. On top of that, cities were flooded with young men from North Africa, Syria, and Afghanistan, and they have a very distinct influence on today's cityscape everywhere in the country. Gelsenkirchen in the heart of the Ruhr region. Angeli Zacharias is in the North Rhine-Westphalian state parliament for the AfD. As a Gelsenkirchen local, the 32-year-old representative is among those who openly and directly address the threatening structural change caused by massive migration. Station Street in Gelsenkirchen's south, a once magnificent, truly magnificent shopping street, one cannot say otherwise. Um, I still remember how wonderfully decorated it was at Christmas. Those were really great times. It also showed how beautiful this city was.
