A NEW poll shows that one-third of Bavaria wants to break free from Germany and the European Union with a Brexit-like vote to get control back over the state.
The Chairman of the Bayernpartei (Party of Bavaria) told RT UK that the state should be allowed to make its own decision independently from Berlin.

“Now we are ruled by Berlin or Brussels. These people decide over the people of Bavaria and we have no influence in the so-called European Parliament. We have only 13 members for Bavaria. Greece, which has fewer inhabitants, has about 25.”
According to 2015 estimates, nearly 13 million people live in Bavaria compared to the 11 million who live in the whole of Greece.
In January 2017 the German Supreme Court clamped down attempts to organise a “Bayexit” referendum, claiming that in Germany single states are not “masters of the Constitution.”
“Therefore there is no room under the constitution for individual states to attempt to secede. This violates the constitutional order.”
