German far-right party orders sweets, gets jelly penises

The far-right Alternative for Germany’s promotional push ahead of a regional election wasn’t quite as sweet as they had hoped.

The party ordered packets of sweets to be given out to potential voters in Lower Saxony, which goes to the polls on October 9. Presumably the sweets were supposed to look like the AfD’s logo, a red tick heading right (imagine the Nike swoosh if it was anti-immigration).

However, according to photos of the sweets sent by a party member to a journalist and shared on social media, the sweets are less tick and more dick.
