Swiss citizens will head to the polls this summer to vote on whether to limit the country’s population to a maximum of 10 million, with the stated goal of restricting immigration.
The proposal was put forward by the far-right Swiss People’s Party, which calls for capping the population at 10 million.
Under the proposed law, the Swiss government and parliament would be required to take action if the country’s population, currently 9.1 million, exceeds 9.5 million. Measures would include limiting the entry of immigrants, including asylum seekers and family members of foreign residents. If these steps fail and the population reaches 10 million, additional restrictions on the entry of new residents would come into effect.
Should these measures also fail to reduce population growth below 10 million, the Swiss government would be forced to withdraw from its free movement agreement with the European Union.

10 million what?
You won’t see an Olympian saying they’re embarrassed about this.
Standard Science Fiction plot — they will need a lottery to kill off a few “useless eaters” (either very old or very young or very sick) whenever an extra “important” person results in an unwanted population boom.
The open border elites claim that without endless immigration Switzerland will wither and die, poor and hungry.
“Far Right”
Whutta Laff!
20 years ago a no growth population control agenda was the hallmark of the Enviromental Left!
Now it’s “far right”? Why?
Simple: because now, the “immigrants” are all Not Whites, so of course it’s racist to keep them out!
Cuz Invasion is a civil right, but only if you’re Not White!
Since the beginning of time humans have protected their territory.
Now it’s somehow wrong and racist.
Renew, baby, Renew!
(with the stated goal of restricting immigration)
If they’re talking about ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION then I understand
Remember Logan’s Run?
Beat me to it.
Now why isn't there a FAR LEFT PARTY...??
Will they deport native born Swiss so they can replace them with Muslims?
How mighty racist of them. Of course important hollywood celebrities who buy luxury mansions to visit 2 or 3 weeks a year are exempted.
Almost a third of the Swiss population was born outside Switzerland. Add in the children of immigrants and that goes up to 40% or more. It’s probably time for them to take a break from immigration for a while and do some assimilating.
They need to follow the Chinese model and have a One-Switzerland policy.
There is no far left. Everyone to the right of Ron Kuby and Bernie is a centrist, unless they like Trump.
