She moved closer to the village church - and then complained about the noise of the church bells. Her kids are Swiss. I wonder if they voted against her as well. :-)

Good to see the Swiss taking a firm line with this nonsense

When I was a vegan, the worst thing was other vegans. The best things was teling vegans that I hated animals and then telling them that I was a vegan.

Wouldn't the church bells be a welcome distraction from the racket of cuckoo clocks?

Hmm..

Tanja Suter, the president of the local Swiss People’s Party, claimed Ms Holten has a “big mouth” and residents had not wanted to give her the gift of citizenship “if she annoys us and doesn’t respect our traditions”.

However....

“if she annoys us and doesn’t respect our traditions”

That's disgusting. They should celebrate her diversity and change their own bigoted ways to suit her.

I like the idea of locals being able to vote as to whether someone can get a passport.
Boris Johnson could be sent back to his place of birth.
