    Refugees and asylum seekers arrive directly in Switzerland, and so is not affected by a ban of EU nationals.

    The Swiss aren't stupid. If they banned immigration from EU, it means that most of the undesirables were coming from within the EU. Guys who have the best banks, make the best cheese, best watches and the best chocolate would know what's best for them.

    You give them far too much credit, I'm afraid.

    EDIT: On second thought.... Kadagar is an EU national who has lived in Switzerland, isn't he? I think I'm starting to understand their vote....
