The anti-immigrant Swiss People's Party has become the most popular political group in the country since the end of the First World War.
The party, which was a member of the outgoing coalition, secured 62 of the 200 seats in the lower house of parliament over the weekend.
The SPP attracted much controversy due to its anti-immigrant stance and an election poster that showed three white sheep kicking a black sheep off the Swiss flag.
