AfD party leader defends same-sex relationships despite party stance
The leader of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD), Alice Weidel, who lives in a same-sex civil partnership, distanced herself on Sunday from part of a regional party manifesto backing the traditional family model, saying she lives "something different."
"They can write whatever they like. I live something different," Weidel said in response to a question from RTL/ntv about the election manifesto of the AfD in the state of Saxony-Anhalt.
The manifesto states: "An intact family consisting of a mother, father and children has been proven to be the best foundation for a child's healthy development."
Weidel lives in a registered civil partnership with a woman, with whom she is raising two children.
"If you ask me personally: my children have the best upbringing and the best opportunities," Weidel said on the sidelines of the AfD party conference in the eastern city of Erfurt.
"We are now living in a completely different reality. So same-sex relationships must be treated equally," she added.
Weidel nonetheless defended her party's fundamental stance towards the traditional family model. "When, as a politician, I speak of a societal ideal - and that is currently the traditional family - I can advocate it and there is no contradiction," she said.

She's the leopard, though
Leopardes ourobouros
Lesbian ourobourus eating her own ass is poetic somehow. Like Peter Thiel on a solid gold crucifix.
shes the attempt at batesian mimicry for the far right, if she acts and look like far right groups, maybe she wont get eaten, in reality she is pretty defenseless, harmless.
Not really. She doesn't even live in Germany but in Switzerland. She's not governed by the laws her party wants to implement.
AFD controlled by a foreigner, and is of the LGTBQ+, i wonder if thiel is friends with her. they both hate thier own people.
Poor reading comprehension there. Read the comment you're replying to again.
She's against this policy (so not the leopard) and she's not living in a jurisdiction where her party operates. She's neither leopard nor the one getting her face eaten. She's merely scum outside this metaphor.
She is part of the leopard party and is helping them accomplish their evil goals. She's a leopard.
She's the head leopard, even.
shes like SCaR controlling the HYENAs, he has to keep thier bellies fed or the hyenas will turn on her.
Yeah but she's one of the good ones! /s
