Why would the police etc. be shocked? This sort of thing is an old tradition in central Europe every May Day. The apprentices would have a day to take it out on their bosses. Sometimes more in one place, or more or less in one year.

Of course they do.

That was the title of this week's home news feature published on April 30th on the Swissinfo portal.
As they told readers in many languages about a 1,500 tradition of young people coming together in a public assembly and talking. Obviously the art of talking and use of words like almost all other arts has taken a beating and seen its finest show displays looted. But still - it's a nice story even if no-one sings the same way. How many can mend a sonnet or saddle a horse? Ah! But has been pointed out many times, we do not need the few left who can do such things in power. The second largest Swiss bank is facing legal challenges for compensation to Malaysian farmers. The suit was served in Zurich this morning by young people oddly enough.

2) "Malaysian farmers seek compensation from Zurich bank"

everything has its value. The Helvetians know this and their federation and culture despite its reputation for being as boring as valium on a pissed damp day is actually vibrantly bracing.
