Perhaps a little early, but the left has started planning what they will do if they come to power in next year's elections. Many in the spiritual sphere of attraction of the horror coalition, which extends from Jobbik, which was recently considered "Nazi, fascist" to the communist successor party, gave and are giving their heads to immodest claims, for example, in connection with how the rule of law could be "suspended" for a short time and the "true rule of law" could be restored. Well, with "hundreds of tricks" - as Ferenc Gyurcsány once performed just 15 years ago today - Miklós Szánthó, director of the Fundamental Rights Center, writes in the columns of Magyar Nemzet .

The gist of the tricky plan of left-wing lawyers and "scholars" - Péter Bárándy, Zoltán Fleck, László Lengyel, Imre Vörös - recently published in Népszava is that if the left wins only a half-majority in the Parliament in 2022, it can still declare the Basic Law null/invalid and other two-thirds laws. By the way, the "idea", which is completely impossible according to common sense and otherwise according to the law, was first proposed by Mátyás Eörsi of the SZDSZ in 2011, Imre Vörös - a former constitutional judge! - He has been working on his "development" since 2012, the authorities have covered him in numerous articles, publications and interviews. Legal sociologist Zoltán Fleck, in principle a university professor, went straight to the point that "after an opposition victory in '22, we must temporarily give up on the pure enforcement of the rule of law".

And János Kis writes that " deviating from the rules of an autocratic system does not harm the rule of law" . (Although the latter got scared the next day and distanced himself from himself.) All this was framed by the president of the DK - in fact the entire left - when he spoke the other day about "the constitutional framework will have to be stretched", or when his wife, Klára Dobrev, said that the a basic law "must be thrown into the bin with a flick of the wrist".

The ideological hinterland of the idea is the old Bolshevik principle, according to which "enemies of democracy do not deserve democracy" - and who are "enemies of democracy" is determined by them.

The proposal is not only the embodiment of cretinism practiced in the guise of some kind of intellectual artificial morality, but also burdened with serious self-contradictions. They say that the system - and the fundamental public law that pervades the entire legal system, the Basic Law - is illegitimate, and there are even problems with its legality. Despite this, all representatives – including the leftists – swore to the Basic Law when they took up their parliamentary mandate. What's more, they are trying to win within the framework of the electoral process, which they consider neither "free" nor "democratic" - along with that of the local government. So, if the left were to win, the victory of their representatives would result from the rules of the "Orbán dictatorship" in the electoral sense, and their parliamentary majority could only be established if they take the oath (again) before it is "classified as invalid", obviously breaking all existing substantive and procedural rules. to the Basic Law.

All in all, of course, this is really just a "formality". A more compelling argument is that

constitution making with a half-majority is a mockery and disregard of the principle of popular sovereignty – the will of the voters: in essence, it is a coup against democracy planned by dilettante jurisprudence.

And if politics turns to illegitimate legislation, it will end in anarchy, chaos and confusion - if the government does not feel bound by the laws, why should the citizens? That's why everyone should take a good look at the list on the day of next year's election: never again a communist!
