  Well this is an interesting one alright. First of all the Swiss believe in referenda. In other words it is true democracy in action which must be the Westminster type lobbyists worst nightmare. The true democracy aspect might interest Oudeis in Barry's Blog... people get to have their say on all kinds of things in Switzerland, its the way they do it. This particular referendum was not about an influx of architectural differences in the shape of minarets clouding the skyline, but was about the Islamisation of Switzerland. They dont want it. They dont want to be Islamised. They want to hold on to their heritage.
  
  I am someone who enjoys the odd trip to Switzerland and in places like Geneva you do notice large influxes of Arabs...and with lots of money too. Not sure what their immigration policy is in Switzerland but with something like 400,000 practising muslims, mostly refugees from the Bosnian War, then they could be in danger of having their own culture compromised or eradicated. This is the worry and you can see their point.
