Five men of the joint venture – and one woman?: If someone says “quota”, it will be a mess

Why is there no majority in the Federal Council? If the SP women have their way, a woman should also be on the list.

Evi Allemann is currently enjoying the most relaxing of her autumn holidays. A member of the Bern government council cannot help but announce his candidacy for the post of federal councilor in the near future. Although their chances of being elected are slim.

This is due to recent history. After Simonetta Sommaruga announced her resignation from the government a year ago, the party issued an order stating that only a woman could be considered for the vacant position.

Now that Alain Berset is leaving, everything is different, they say in SP circles. Since there are currently three women on the Federal Council, gender criteria are no longer required to obtain a ticket. And what speaks against the female majority in the Committee of Seven? Nothing. Except, perhaps, that the United Federal Assembly has a strong sense of history. If necessary, the Social Democrats will be reminded that they have appropriated the label of “party of equality” according to bourgeois circles. And ensure that the Federal Counsel for the SP is provided with a Federal Counsel for the SP.

Five representatives of the joint venture are currently vying for the vacant position, each of whom is highly qualified. It is the SP itself that is to blame for everyone talking about missing women: if someone talks about a quota, it always becomes a problem.
