In the Federal Council elections: FDP leader wants the parliamentary group to be “controlled”.

Beat Jans is the new federal council member.

SVP, FDP, center – according to research by Blick, the 70 votes for the wild SP candidate Daniel Jositsch (58) came from these ranks on Wednesday. Not true, claimed FDP president Thierry Burkart (48) yesterday in the SRF “Rundschau”.

Only one to three FDP votes were cast for Jositsch. He checked that: “I walked through the lines and talked to people. Everyone told me they were also looking left and right. There is a certain social control.”

Secret and free

This statement is now causing a stir in the Federal Palace. Because the elections – including those for the Federal Council – are secret. Parliamentary law says: “Voting is secret.” And the so-called ban on instruction is enshrined in the Federal Assembly: according to it, national and state councils freely exercise their mandate. No one can tell them how to speak, vote or vote.

The comments on Burkart’s statement are correspondingly harsh. Enforcing social control over voting secrecy is “hardly liberal”, says Mitte President Gerhard Pfister (61).

Other lawmakers are outraged by Burkhart’s actions. But he hardly has any consequences. As long as no councilor files a complaint, the offices of the National Council and the Council of States – which organize parliamentary work – are powerless. (sf)
