Angela Merkel has promised to speed up the deportations of rejected asylum seekers from Germany after hundreds of far-right protesters called on her to resign over her disastrous migration policy.
Activists chanted “Get lost!” and “Merkel must go!” as Mrs Merkel flew into the eastern city of Dresden for talks with regional members of her Christian Democratic Union (CDU).
The demonstration was organised by the anti-Islam PEGIDA movement in protest at Mrs Merkel’s decision in 2015 to leave German borders open to more than a million refugees, mainly from Muslim countries.
