Nigel Farage warned Angela Merkel is at serious risk of losing power if she doesn’t change tack on immigration.

The embattled German Chancellor is under intense pressure as she struggles to hold her administration together while the rightwing eurosceptic party AfD surges in the polls.

Merkel’s interior minister Horst Seehofer has called for police to turn back migrants registered in other EU countries, a sharp contrast to Germany’s current open-door immigration policy.

Speaking on hi LBC phone-in show, Mr Farage remarked that immigration has become the dominant issue in European politics.

He added that the furious debate surrounding immigration in Germany could topple Angela Merkel, and event that would send shockwaves through the European Union and possibly even lead to a “German Brexit”.

Mr Farage said: “Mrs Merkel, of course, compounded all of this by saying ‘we can cope. As many as want to come, come.’

“And guess what? More than 1.4 million went to Germany.

“It has totally changed German attitudes and German politics.

“It’s led directly to the rise of the AfD, the Alternative for Deutschland. They, in turn, putting massive pressure on the Bavarian Conservatives, without whom Mrs Merkel cannot govern.

“The battle that’s going on in the European Union is this: should decisions about immigration, about how you deal with illegals, about how you qualify or recognise refugees, should these decisions be taken by the European Union, or should these decisions be taken by nation states?
