	Description:		The German Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party has been classified as extreme-right by the country's intelligence agency. This will allow for closer surveillance of the party - and potentially even a total ban. We hear from the party’s deputy leader who calls the decision ‘totalitarian’. Also on the programme: The crew of a boat transporting aid to Gaza claims it was attacked by drones in international waters near Malta, and; Prince Harry tells the BBC that his father King Charles won't speak to him because of a dispute over who should pay for his security.
