According to the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), the AfD is now “definitely right-wing extremist”. It represents positions that fundamentally contradict fundamental trade union values. In the first part of my article, I showed that trade unions can therefore declare the AfD to be an opposing organization by means of an incompatibility resolution. But can trade unions exclude AfD members from their ranks – especially on the basis of an incompatibility resolution?

In this second part, I will show that the exclusion of AfD members from trade unions is also possible – contrary to what a recent decision by the Berlin II Regional Court suggests.
