After SVP threat: BDP modifies website

The Civic Democratic Party (BDP) has modified its website following a threat from the SVP Switzerland. However, the modified SVP sun has not disappeared completely.

The Civic Democratic Party (BDP) has modified its website following a threat from the SVP Switzerland. Since Friday, it has appeared at Bdp.tv with the coats of arms of the cantons of Graubünden, Bern and Glarus, where the BDP sections have already been established or will be formally founded at the end of August. The green of the SVP logo has been replaced by a dark blue, with stars twinkling in the night sky. But you can also access Bdp.tv by entering Svp.tv. For a few seconds, a sun with dark glasses appears on a bath towel before quickly switching to the new site. The situation will be analyzed over the weekend and legal action will be taken, said SVP party spokesman Alain Hauert when asked by SDA. The SVP had demanded that the Thurgau production company responsible for the BDP site change the new party's Internet presence and not use the name SVP or the People's Party logo in any form.
