The SP comes in Europe to rest. After a tumultuous week, President Christian Levrat tried yesterday, although the delegates ‘ meeting in Goldau, SZ to calm the situation, but now the next attack – by Peter bodenmann . The former party leader and European politician spread criticism in all directions.
the followers of The social-liberal wing, to the Council of States Daniel Jositsch , he is referred to in an Interview with the Sunday newspaper short-hand as “suicide-social-Democrats”, and the party leadership, he accuses, indirectly, to the debate on the framework agreement with the EU on the wrong cards. He asked instead of his party with a concrete alternative plan.
“The proposals of ground man of socio-political all right, and we will support you, but you can’t solve the Problem,” said SP national councillor and trade unionist, Corrado Pardini . With the present draft agreement, the wage protection measures would be transferred to Brussels and the dismantling of an effective wage protection initiated. “We want a framework agreement with the EU, but the need to guarantee the independent right to protection of Wages. Because the agreement does not meet this condition, we reject it to the Federal Council as inadequate.”
the ground’s attack Levrats efforts destroyed.
ground man stirs up even more controversy in the SP. This week, the party’s exchange of the Old national councillor Chantal Galladé of the green liberals a stir among the social Democrats first made, they justified their departure with the critical attitude of the SP to the EU Treaty. Representatives of the right SP-wing is requested, the party must shift to a ” Yes ” to the agreement. The SP-group Liens Europe double yesterday with a position paper. Even in this, however, that the Federal Council had to seek the protection of Wages once again, the conversation with the EU. Pressure on the SP exercised in addition, the FDP, whose group speaks for the agreement.
President Levrat saw yesterday also urged to convey to the delegates that the SP is still a Europe-friendly party. The SP will do everything, in order to obtain a framework agreement, which the level of wages in Switzerland are harmful, said Levrat. Both is possible: “Yes to Europe and Yes to the protection of Wages.” He also stressed that renegotiations with the EU were necessary.
in the course of the week Levrat had signaled willingness to talk to the CVP and the FDP, in order to find political solutions. But the ground’s attack Levrats efforts now being destroyed again, the party in European politics, and bring back to a line.
Suddenly, ready to screw on the protection of Wages
After all, proposals are now for the first time timidly on the table, such as the protection of Wages could be customized, so that the agreement still gets a Chance. The ideas, however, remain vague. “Conceivable measures, the countries in each of the EU for the application, provided that they are really effective. It is also possible that Switzerland, the EU needs to make a counter offer,” says SP Leader Roger Nordmann .
Concrete he will not because he wants to wait to see if the Federal Council fails to present in two weeks, with the consultation of the parties ideas on how the agreement is to be implemented at the legislative level. “If there’s nothing coming, you need to take the parties themselves and search for solutions, the tax-AHV-Deal of the case.” For Nordmann’s clear that it comes at the end without the unions. “We need a reliable solution, we can also convince the trade unions.” Of receivables, as required by the ground man, way to everything but still far.
