After several defeats at the ballot box SVP Federal councillor Ueli Maurer has criticised his party sharply. “We are comfortable that our people work hard,” he says, a week after the electoral defeat in Zurich.
“I see a degree of superficiality,” criticized the former party leader and current Federal President, in an Interview with the “Sunday look”. It was now up to the party, to give.
electoral gains of the SVP only with tried-and-tested topics such as the EU, foreigners, or taxes, the Finance Minister is convinced. Just to say no, to little. It is crucial that the party could justify their rejection exactly, and Alternatives to be followed. “This is at the Moment too little of the case.”
No rush
The gains of the green parties in the Zurich-based elections should not lead, according to Mason, his party bends. “The SVP must not jump on the climate-Hype. That would be completely implausible.” A quick shot is to be prevented.
The Federal President wants to know anything about that, to be the figurehead for his party for the elections. “I have a different function, a different responsibility in my office,” he said. Of course he was going to visit single events, the election campaign for the SVP he could not operate.
Maurer, substantiated in the Interview, finally, his intention in December at the General election, again as the Federal Council to compete: “Yes, I want to again be a candidate.” The work to make him Fun. He did not know what he would do at the Moment, dear. (hvw/sda)
