An online job listing seeking a “Swiss” driver has caused outrage among members of Switzerland’s migrant community.

Paul had words about that.

Meanwhile, they have three languages and still retain their identity.
The EU, however, continues to try to chip away at their sovereignty via agreement after agreement.
Outrage! What else is new?
