The SVP will soon enter the hot phase of the election campaign. On July 1, she will hold a special party conference in Küsnacht am Rigi SZ. There she wants to launch the sustainability initiative on immigration, the CH Media newspapers reported on Friday. The title of the initiative: “No 10 million Switzerland”.
So the direction is clear. The initiative demands that Switzerland should not exceed ten million permanent residents by 2050. These limits can only be shifted from 2050. However, only through the birth surplus. He must ensure organic growth.
Drastic steps in crossing the border
The initiative is intended to act as a brake on immigration and should function in a similar way to the debt brake: if population growth exceeds certain thresholds, the government must intervene.
With the initiative, it would work in a similar way: if the ten million mark is passed, the Bundesrat would have to end those international agreements that lead to population growth. This would mainly affect the free movement of persons with the EU and possibly the UN Migration Pact.
The co-committee consists of SVP chairman Marco Chiesa (48), party chairman Thomas Aeschi (44) and national councilors Thomas Matter (57), Mike Egger (30) and Manuel Strupler (43).
1.5 million signature sheets
The decision to launch the initiative was just a formality, writes CH Media. The collection of signatures will begin four days after the Special Party Congress. For this purpose, the SVP has, among other things, printed 1.5 million sheets of signatures and enclosed them with the SVP election campaign newspaper.
Thomas Matter confirmed the timetable. Actually, the SVP only wanted to launch the initiative next year, the National Council of Zurich is quoted in the article. Only: current events have changed the starting position: “The situation is urgent, we must act immediately.”
According to the report, the SVP of the canton of Zurich would be responsible for collecting signatures. The national party lacked the resources to collect signatures in addition to the election campaign. (Okay)
