And suddenly he is back in the headlines, the former Lucerne Finance Director Daniel Bühlmann, who had his own finances, and in 2007 was voted out of office. Bühlmann is currently being sought from UBS. The Bank requires the repayment of a mortgage debt of 530’000 Swiss francs. The Old councillor is nowhere to be found: Neither the Bank nor the enforcement office can contact him. Now Bühlmann is advertised in the “Canton journal”, the “Neue Luzerner Zeitung” reported.
Daniel Bühlmann managed 2005 Historic. The politicians broke through the almost two-centuries-long dominance of Conservatives and liberals and moved in as the first SVP-politicians in the government. In the Central Swiss Canton of were the CVP and the FDP, the particular, where it went long when the SP mitregierte with representation from 1959.
Bühlmann took over the prestigious Department of Finance. However, his tenure was short-lived. What had happened? In January 2007, it was announced that the magistrates enforcements of 15’709.95 franc run. Bühlmann (annual salary 220’000 Swiss francs), gave as the reason for the debt, that he was a private organization in administrative matters bad.
Bühlmann dismissed his tax office boss
The prosecutions were not the only Concerns, the employees Bühlmann in the election campaign. The year before, the SVP was invited politicians as speakers at the so-called Mr evening. The traditional Luzerner fasnacht occasion macho sayings are part of the program. Bühlmann took his job seriously, and a fire has brought work on jokes for the Superiority of the male sex. The crowd barked.
But also this story of the way in the media. Bühlmann apologized, but was still the enemy of the Lucerne women. The government in the election campaign in the criticism, because he hired his brother as a personal adviser, although this was involved in a tax scandal. And finally, Bühlmann dismissed his tax office chief, after he had a falling out with him.
New Job as a managing Director in the construction industry
After the poor performance of Bühlmanns in the first ballot, the SVP dropped their former political star. The haste of the party to set up a replacement candidate, however, was a political lightweight. He had in the second ballot, no Chance. Ironically, Marcel Schwerzmann, the Bühlmann laid-off tax office chief, stood as the party candidate against him – and won the election.
Daniel Bühlmann disappeared from the policy. As the managing Director of a construction company, he found a new Job. According to his Linkedin profile, he now works as a Department head of real estate development in another company. But the company called to request that Mr. buehlmann was no longer employed.
The SVP of Lucerne took me years, until they recovered from the ill-fated stint in the cantonal government. They only returned in the elections of 2015, Paul Winiker back in the government.
