Ask structure of English sentence First one: The right-wing Swiss People's Party is gathering signatures for a voter referendum to enshrine corporate secrecy in the Constitution, warning against the insidious effect of foreign demands for tax information what is the original sentence of " ,warning against the insidious effect of foreign demands for taxi information." Dose the original sentence look like "......in the Constitution, and is warning against the insidious effect of foreign demands for tax information" and the writer omitted "and is" to become ", warning....." Second one: For those bankers whose roles have brought legal charges abroad, that means avoiding extradition by staying within Switzerland, living life in legal and personal limbo. Why their's no conjunction before the living, should i write" that means avoiding extradition by staying within Switzerland, and living life in legal and personal limbo" ?

1. Yes 2. Because it's not needed. If I were, you I wouldn't worry about these points - if you understand the text, then that's fine. Don't waste your efforts trying to analyse things unnecessarily. It would be better to spend your time concentrating on your own use of English. There are a couple of very basic mistakes in your question that would lose you marks in an exam. This is what you should be focusing on.
