Wermuth criticizes “grotesque” threat from young FDP Aargau – Young liberals disagree – Canton (Aargau) – Aargau



[ad_1]

The young FDP Aargau presented a complaint about the right to vote to the governing council; she thinks the churches’ commitment to the corporate responsibility initiative is unconstitutional. And: If the complaint is no longer addressed on time and the churches do not stop their campaign, the vote must be lifted later. The AZ made this unusual request public earlier this week.

“I think I’m crazy,” Cédric Wermuth writes on Instagram about the actions of young liberals in his native canton. The new SP co-chair compares the approach of the young FDP Aargau with the president-elect of the United States. “In the Trump style”, the FDP as a precautionary measure demands the judicial annulment of the vote to the group initiative, if it reaches a yes, writes Wermuth and raises a weighty accusation: the corporate lobby is even willing to “take measures against the democracy in this country to protect their filthy business. ”That’s” so grotesque. “

Young Liberals Find Wermuth’s Accusation “Grotesque”

Young liberals find it “grotesque” that Wermuth accuses them of being Trumpians. “It is absolutely legal and nothing unusual to file complaints about voting rights,” says Matthias Müller, President of Young Freisans Switzerland.

He notes that the SP and JUSO, of which Wermuth was once president, had lodged voting complaints several times in the past. Often after a vote and with the request that the vote be collected.

The Jungfreisinnigen Schweiz are of the opinion that public law churches are fundamentally obliged to be politically neutral. “If they are still allowed to express their views on political issues, then they must do so in an objective, transparent and proportionate way,” says Müller. According to the Young Party, this does not appear to be the case for the corporate responsibility initiative. Therefore, a judicial review must be conducted to determine where the boundaries are for churches as public bodies.

The governing council will deal with the complaint soon

The widespread excitement may turn out to be a storm in a glass of water: Aargau’s governing council is expected to address and make a decision on the voting rights complaint this week.

Voting on the corporate responsibility initiative will take place on November 29. (Arizona)
