Immigration quiz—Swiss People’s Party question the nation

Should Switzerland abandon or renegotiate the Free Movement of People accord with the EU? Should long term unemployed foreigners be sent home? Should foreigners who commit serious crimes be automatically deported? The Swiss People’s Party has sent out a questionnaire to every Swiss household to canvas opinion on these and similar issues. The questionnaire’s accompanied by a pamphlet outlining the Swiss People’s Party’s outlook on foreigners, immigration and crime. WRS’s Vincent Landon has more.

To get a sense of the significance of this campaign Vincent Landon asked political analyst Mark Balsiger for his assessment.
