Locus Delicti

Politics The night before the Federal Council elections is a special one - the night of the long knives, the night that is the subject of various stab-in-the-back legends and the night when parliamentarians meet for their final strategy meetings in Bern's pubs. For example in the "Lorenzini". Reason enough for the pub team to take out a full-page advertisement in the Bund to draw attention to the fact that many a Federal Council election has been decided in their pub. The advertisement, designed by the Bern agency Contexta and published the day before the election, plays tongue-in-cheek with the concept of the night of the long knives.
