Angela Merkel is asking Germany this weekend to give her a fourth term as Chancellor and she now looks almost certain to get it. Today’s special correspondent Jim Naughtie reports on the mood in Berlin. Former director of the British Museum Neil MacGregor is advising the German government on the creation of a new museum in Berlin. He discusses what it is about Ms Merkel that has made her so successful. (Image: Angela Merkel poster. Credit: Reuters)
