A pedestrian walks past electoral posters on October 13, 2023 in Lausanne, ahead of the Swiss federal elections to elect a new Parliament. AFPPIX: Switzerland's biggest political force, the right-wing populist Swiss People's Party, kicked off its general election campaign with figurehead Christoph Blocher riding into Zurich's ice hockey arena on a tractor trailer.
Blocher's SVP is focused around three key principles: no to mass immigration, no to the European Union and no to the abandonment of Swiss neutrality. But Blocher launched a vigorous campaign in the 1990s against the prospect of Switzerland joining the European Union, and in the 1999 elections the SVP shot up to first place with 23 percent.
But the Federal Commission Against Racism has accused the SVP of running a “xenophobic” campaign on social media by spotlighting criminal cases perpetrated by foreigners.
