Sic transit gloria mundi - we could think sadly about the brilliance and then fall of Ildikó Bangóné Borbély, if we were not comforted by the knowledge that the shining star of the MSZP was taken from the pást by his own party members - to a more spacious place outside. In vain, this is what happens when there are many Eskimos, but few seals.
In a statement on Sunday, the communist successor party announced that at an extraordinary meeting of their National Board, they decided to exclude him from their ranks and to call on the eavesdropping Ildiko, who was found to have lied about his diploma, to return his parliamentary mandate. For eight years, the importance of this lie was negligible, and not a single party member was interested in what their comrade wrote about herself or what not, after all, the MSZP is known to treat the credibility of its members loosely, whether it concerns a thesis or a video. But now, in the eighth year of Ildikó's parliamentary representation, the news that he displayed a fake diploma in his political portfolio exploded like an atomic bomb, and this is unheard of.
Of course, better late than never, Miklós Hajnal is preparing. Or not. After all, he was not socialized in socialist morality, according to which one must take responsibility, but in liberalism, according to which one should not. Except if it is necessary, for example, if there is a gap in the listed places. Captain Szanyi could also tell you about this.
quoting Zsolt Bayer who was deeply moved by the news , who writes in his obituary:
"I first heard about Ildiko many, many years ago. At the time, someone told me that in Nádudvar, he yelled somewhat hoarsely: "Let's go hang Fidesz!" - but I didn't believe this rumor even then."
Words break in, voices break, breaths are broken , because Ildikó was perhaps the most authentic stain of the socialist party,
"he, like the purest, most carefully prepared distillate, like the quintessence, presented the lumpenprolite in its full truth, pure, without frills and lies, without unnecessary frills".
Who doesn't remember when, in one of the broadcasts of ATV's Morning Start program, he insulted three million Hungarian voters in such a way that despite the shocked faces of the presenters, he thought he was a good guy, or the "fucking strong image" he created in the public media building? Perhaps to the letter he wrote to Balázs Orbán, which made only 27 mistakes in its thirty lines?
And if we're talking about spelling, let's not go too far when the question "SHOULD THE WORD BE CONTINUED TO REPRESENTATIVES?" he was standing in the corridor with a piece of paper written on it, together with Ágica Kunhalmi, and half of the MSZP was there with them, and no one, but really no one, noticed the deer mistake.
Ms. Bangón will miss one word more than a hundred, because with her departure, one of the freshest spots of the MSZP will disappear from public life, but let everyone be comforted by the knowledge that the socialist morality is the old one, and the real reason for Ildikó's departure is not a trivial eavesdropping, but the depleted list of places number.
The comrades didn't change a jot.
