German parliament expected to approve Greek bailout package

German lawmakers are expected to approve a Greek rescue package later today in a vote in the Bundestag.

However there are signs that the German public is running out of patience over bailing out Greece.

A weekend poll shower 62% of people want parliament to vote no - with just 33% calling for the €130bn aid package to be approved.

This afternoon's vote in the lower house of Parliament is expected to be easily adopted as the two main opposition parties have said they will support the motion.
