Political work

Hermann is an honorary member of the council of the municipality Panthenstein and honorary member of the district assembly of the district Leipzig with headquarters in Borna .

Herrmann advertised at the nomination party congress of the Saxon AfD in 2017 that he wanted to campaign for the "restoration of internal security" and for the deportation of those obliged to leave the country. As chairman of a committee of inquiry, he wants to “hold the Chancellor accountable” for the refugee crisis in Germany from 2015 onwards . In the election campaign he promised to work for deportations even without financial incentives "in order not to arouse desires", and in the judiciary he pleads for "deterrence, retaliation, atonement and reparation instead of cuddle justice". When it comes to immigration, there must be a “clear separation and distinction between asylum and qualified immigration”. He named the “introduction of direct democracy based on the Swiss model” as his most important goal. In addition, he was in favor of uniform educational standards throughout Germany, but against their EU-wide harmonization , and wanted to campaign for “wages that you can live on,” “fast Internet also in the country”.

As a member of parliament, he belonged to a working group in his parliamentary group that was supposed to prepare the establishment of a “Merkel committee of inquiry”. However, such a committee did not come about.

At the AfD federal party conference at the end of November / beginning of December 2019 in Braunschweig, Herrmann criticized Björn Höcke , the spokesman for the völkisch-nationalist party movement “ Der Flügel ”. Herrmann had said at the federal party conference that Höcke should run for election to the federal executive committee and then “pick up a gossip”. As a result, he was expelled from his state group in Saxony in the Bundestag. He had already made a name for himself as an opponent of the current and, for example, signed the so-called “Appeal of the 100”, which criticized Björn Höcke and the influence of the “wing”.

On December 18, 2019, Herrmann resigned from the AfD and its parliamentary group. Herrmann justified the move with the party's course and in particular the influence of the right-wing extremist " wing " in his state of Saxony. The state group of Saxony of his party in the Bundestag, according to his own statement, after his criticism of Björn Höcke and without a prior hearing, excluded him. In view of this, he was no longer prepared to allow statements by “wing” representatives to be attributed to him.
