Swiss voters say ‘F’ You to EU on uncontrolled migration.

SWISS SAY ‘F’ YOU to EU on uncontrolled migration

First of all, Switzerland is not a member of the EU, and so a majority, sadly a small one but still enough to tell the EU, do not tell us how many we may or may not block from free access to OUR country.

The vote was small but in Switzerland, 50.3 percent is still a majority vote and so at last and in this one case, the voters have their voice heard and caps will follow.

I have heard interviews on the radio with citizens pro and con but the bottom line for those folks, who voted in favor of migration restrictions, is a loud NO to unrestricted free and open borders.  This is a country of some 8 million people.  That 50.3% is unwilling to see the drift to a country that is becoming less Swiss with each generation. What the voter sees is the influx of people who cannot speak their language and have nothing generally in common with their culture.

And they are not only speaking about the turd world migrants.  They do not want hoards from France, Germany or Italy either.
And btw … you can bet your last dollar that those coming from those countries originate elsewhere.  I guess the Swiss voter or at least a fraction over half of them, do not want to see their country become the cess-pit that other European countries are becoming.  To be fair, not all migrants or immigrants are of the sort you wouldn’t accept as a friend, co-worker and friend. But the question is, ok and how many of those do you find?  We have all seen the general sorts of refugees, amnesty seekers and criminals who number in the thousands.  A country like the UK finds itself unable to even deport the criminal element among their number. And all because they are members of the EU and are somewhat restricted due to the silly and equally insane “rights” industry and the courts they own.

ANTI MIGRANT VICTORY SPELLS CHAOS, (say critics)

Against all expectations, the Swiss narrowly approved a referendum proposal to stop “mass migration”, which will tear up agreements with the EU on free movement of people and goods.
The official result recorded that 50.3 per cent of voters had backed the measure.
The proposal, tabled by the right-wing populist UDC (Democratic Union of Centre) party had been fiercely condemned by Swiss business groups and opposed by the federal parliament, President and government.
The result obliges Switzerland to impose unspecified annual ceilings on all foreign migrants, including Britons and other EU citizens and daily cross-border commuters from France, Italy and Germany.
Such limits would breach “open borders” treaties with Brussels, which also allow Swiss goods to circulate freely within Europe and give Swiss businesses the right to bid for EU government contracts.
The Swiss political scientist Pascal Sciarini said the country faced economic “chaos” because all its diplomatic and commercial agreements with the EU would have to be renegotiated from scratch. Over half of Swiss exports go to the EU.
The UDC argued that migration, currently running at 80,000 people a year, threatened to swamp the culture and identity of Switzerland. The country has a population of 8,000,000, of whom one in four were born abroad.
Unless ceilings abolished by a previous referendum in 2000 were re-established, the UDC said, Swiss housing, health, education and transport services would collapse under the pressure from the foreign “invasion”. The “yes” campaign’s posters showed black legs striding purposefully over a Swiss flag – recalling the party’s much criticised poster in a 2009 referendum showing white sheep ejecting a black sheep from Switzerland.
Although the party was again accused of using the race card, the most dramatic effect of the referendum result will be to scramble relations between Switzerland and its neighbours and ethnic cousins in Germany, France and Italy.
Yves Nidegger of the UDC said that a majority of Swiss people had rejected the “alarmist” tactics of business and mainstream parties who had warned that the “ten plagues of Egypt ” would strike the country if it voted “yes”.
Far from taking their revenge by ejecting Switzerland from its EU trade agreements, he said, many European countries would soon follow the “respectable and exemplary” Swiss lead and impose their own curbs on free movement of people within Europe.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
