Libertarian Party (Switzerland)

[1] The announcement received quite a broad media attention due to its founder Brenda being the former president of the Young Liberals.

In February 2018, the party again received broad attention due to the appearance of Simon Scherrer and Silvan Amberg in the national TV-debate Arena for their opposition against the federal taxes.

The Libertarian Party is governed by a national board which is elected annually by its active members with voting rights (so-called "driver").

The party has confirmed several times that it will run for parliament only, but it will refrain from any executive positions in politics.
