We could also give this title to the audio recording made public yesterday, in which former Prime Minister Gordon Bajnai does math on how many sharks are swimming in a six-party coalition.
The case of Városháza-gate has reached a new turn, Anonymus's fresh, crisp audio recording guides its listeners and readers into the mysteries of left-liberal divisiveness. In the recording, Bajnai, in the company of Gyula Gansperger and a potential buyer interested in the City Hall, talks about how everything must be done honestly and legally. No way, I was just kidding! Bajnai talks about how, as soon as the freeloaders of the six-party coalition smell big business, i.e. the sale of public property, they will immediately appear and hold their ground. Then they lament about what could be done to avoid this, in Hungarian, the little balls don't want to share.
"There are at least two problems. From a management perspective. (We think it's more than that - ed.) So it's a six-party coalition, right? Which is a given. I pointed out that I have seen these operations from both sides. Here, someone smells the possibility of a deal, a business, then everyone immediately wants to act as an intermediary. So that he can then ask for some kind of commission."
- says Bajnai, thereby confirming Gyula Gansperger's previous statement that a commission system can work in the capital. In an earlier audio recording, it was said that Deputy Mayor Ambrus Kiss could also get money back after certain real estate deals in the capital. At the time, Gergely Karácsony firmly denied that all of this was true, stood up for his deputy and declared that he would "put his hands in the fire" for her. Of course, this does not mean, knowing the Mayor's previous statements, that he would say the same thing today, let alone tomorrow. If you do, in order to avoid possible burns, it is recommended that you get ordinary asbestos gloves.
Later in the recording, Bajnai is asked to arrange, with the help of Csaba Tordai, the mayor's advisor, that they only have to negotiate the sale with Balázs Barts, the head of the capital's asset management company. Gansperger puts it this way:
"It would be good if she got together with Balázs, I'm sorry, but there's always another one by her side..."
This sentence could even refer to a longed-for, but so far unrequited love affair, but believe me, it does not refer to that.
In the end, Bajnai unwittingly pulls the veil off the champions of integrity and morality in this way - and with one decisive move:
"I understand this need, I don't know if Mr. Tordai will be able to do it, because as soon as news of such a thing spreads, in this […] such a coalition, all of a sudden, there are these sharks. […] In my opinion, when someone signs in with you, they cannot control it, there are a lot of these sharks swimming in the lake, and in a large coalition everyone has their own small sub-areas, this is the reality, this is how it works.”

Can I summarize what we know so far?
Gergely Karácsony already used the Russian version of the Chewbacca defense in Bajnai's previous speech on the issue of the City Hall, according to which everything in the universe is done on Putin's personal orders, in a way that is unpleasant and embarrassing for Gergely. He himself is never to blame, if it seems so, it can only be the work of the Russian secret service.
Gy. Erzsébet Németh does not go to the ATV studio instead of her boss to lie to the camera and because Karácsony feels that the ice is getting thinner under him, but because no one wants to sell the City Hall. Anyone who says otherwise is just making up a conspiracy theory. The previous discussions, negotiations, and reports were just methodological exercises on how NOT to sell the building.
The lack of white powder does not mean that the discussions did not take place in a bakery, but it does not prove that they were there either.
Gergely Karácsony, the unlimited master of the Budapest City Hall, can use the washroom he wants, and he does not have to save on water, electricity, or gas. For now.
Gergely Karácsony does not deny that his previous statements will not be coherent with the ones to come, but he also does not deny that they will. And that's for sure.
Csaba Tordai is not related to Benc Tordai, if he is, it can only be a coincidence, just as if he is not.
According to Gergely Karácsony's own admission, he is an excellent mayor who is able to rule the city with an iron hand, but knows nothing about its affairs.
And it's only November...
