I think that a clear view is emerging from the stats and the actions of most leading MPs, that they are not interested in the country and people at all.

And we have a great sense of irony and humour, which in my few dealings with Swiss didn't show itself. So we ...Written By: greywarshark - Date published: 9:06 pm, August 22nd, 2026
