Will Switzerland Vote To Cap Its Population at 10 Million?

11 June - 21 mins
Podcast Series Newstalk Daily

Switzerland is about to vote on whether to cap its population at ten million people. 

The proposal comes from the right-wing Swiss People’s Party. 

 They are saying that immigration is putting too much pressure on housing, schools, healthcare and transport. 

 But opponents say it could damage Switzerland’s relationship with the EU — and maybe create its own version of Brexit. 

Ciara is joined by Imogen Foulkes, BBC Geneva correspondent
