Come now, we mustn't allow facts to get in the way of Hamble's little campaigns.

Angela Merkel’s political future was hanging in the balance on Friday as a coalition talks deadline passed without agreement on forming a new German government.

Talks have been extended and are now expected to last into the weekend after party leaders were unable to hammer out a deal on key issues including migrants.

If they cannot reach an agreement in the coming days, Germany could face new elections and Mrs Merkel’s future as chancellor will be in doubt.

Mrs Merkel had pledged to deliver a clear answer on whether she could form a new coalition by Friday morning.

The 'Jamaica Coalition'.

Will it survive or not.

How far will Merkel bend to keep power?

Merkel has lost a lot of seats in Germany, while the AfD has gained seats. Merkel has lost the majority vote - none of the other parties will form a coalition with her as there are far too many disagreements. So the choice is that she either continues as a minority government or that there is a re-election.
