After flirting with Mass-Voll: SVP whistles Glarner back

class=”sc-29f61514-0 fQbOYE”>

The Aargauer SVP chairman and national councilor Andreas Glarner (60) crumbles. It was very disappointing that he was open to a list connection with Mass-Voll’s critics of measures around Nicolas Rimoldi (28) before the national elections in October. Not only with the Aargau FDP.

FDP chair Sabina Freiermuth (58) had made it clear: if the SVP cooperated with Mass-Voll, Freisinn would not be on the agreed list for the upcoming National Council elections.

SVP voters threatened to leave the party

But the alliance plans with the protest movement also received criticism in the SVP base, party secretary Barbara Borer-Mathys (40) of the “Aargauer Zeitung” confirms. The SVP phone went by storm. Voters are said to have threatened to leave the party.

And then there is the EDU, which is part of the planned list connection with SVP and FDP. Roland Haldimann, president of EDU Aargau, would say he couldn’t imagine a list connection with Mass-Voll. Although the value conservative party, like Mass-Voll, is critical to negative about the corona measures, “we cannot support the way these people are politicking”.

EDU refused signature

The already planned list connection with the SVP should be signed on Wednesday evening. According to Glarner’s statements on Mass-Voll, the EDU president canceled the signing appointment. According to Haldimann, the SVP must first make clear internally what he wants.

That is what the Sunneli party apparently did. The SVP management put an end to the scare on Wednesday evening after exciting internal discussions. Glarner was apparently called back, writes the “Aargauer Zeitung”. There certainly won’t be a list connection to Mass-Voll. The SVP chairman also confirmed this verbally after receiving negative reactions as well.

Glarner’s connections to Rimoldi

That Glarner has good relations with Rimoldi has been known throughout Switzerland since an incident in the Federal Palace: the SVPer had invited the critic of the measures to the Federal Palace on the same day that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky (45) addressed the Swiss Parliament in a speech online.

While media professionals, lobbyists and party employees were denied access to the lobby “for security reasons”, President Rimoldi was able to move there undisturbed. (dba)
