— In its verdict on Monday, the court found that the two men had merely expressed an opinion, which is protected by freedom of expression. Nor did the judge find them guilty of offences against honour or slander. A clue in a Valais paper, Le Nouvelliste, on November 18, 2023, was: "Swiss political party — racist, xenophobic, homophobic, anti-feminist, anti-ecological, anti-poor, nationalist". The answer: UDC (the French abbreviation for the Swiss People’s Party). The Valais section of the People's Party took exception to this and demanded, and received, an apology from Le Nouvelliste.
