A seemingly simple but explosive story. Cantonal delegates of the Young Swiss People's Party (Jeunes UDC suisses) were allegedly turned away from a bar because of their political color, «Le Regard Libre» has learned. The group's president and vice-president react.
Pince-sans-rire, lordly, classy. Paolo Conte, creator and interpreter of Via con me, but also of the grandiose «Gli impermeabili», «Sotto le stelle del jazz», «Max» and «Hemingway», appears authentic in the documentary dedicated to him and just released in French-speaking Switzerland. This film is an opportunity to plunge into his mystery. It's also a beautiful object, with the chic and charm of the song of the same name.

The relationship between Switzerland and the European Union has never been worse. On that, our two debaters agree. But beyond that, their views are diametrically opposed.

DOSSIER «LE GRAND RETOUR DU NUCLEAIRE», Jonas Follonier | Classical Liberal? Libertarian? In any case, he's one of those people the press likes to refer to as «neo-liberals» or «ultra-liberals» - not necessarily nice labels. But at Regard Libre, we're not really interested in labels and how nice they are (or aren't). Here's a political and economic analyst who counts, who is a frequent guest in the French media (and not just L'Opinion or Le Figaro) and whose essay, published in 2021, Les écologistes contre la modernité, is fascinating. We may find ourselves in profound disagreement with some or all of his opinions. However, a confrontation with his viewpoint can only be stimulating. This book offers a thorough critique of the anti-capitalist foundations of radical ecology, including the author's fiery, well-argued plea in favor of industrial society and nuclear power.
