« Then we are one thing above all: dishonest! »

Alexandra Beck, in the Weinfeld parliament parliamentary group president Mitte/EVP/yes, headed the special commission, which brought the revised cemetery regulations to two readings in front of parliament last year. In the voting struggle, she held the following: « If we deny our Muslim population, we are one thing above all: dishonest! » The polemical anger of a single paragraph now endangers all the effort with which the revised cemetery regulations have been developed.

The Egerkinger committee also mixed with it

The Egerkingen committee had also activated the hard voting struggle, in which many trenches were heaped up in Weinfelden. The association had triumphed in the minaret initiative in 2009 and in 2021 when voting on the ban on the heating. Now the committee faced the Muslim graves in Weinfelden.
