The power belongs to the people - announced the opposition with its campaign song. After the election failure, the internal fights were renewed and intensified, as was the tradition of special deals on the left. Now there are just a few parliamentary mandates on the line, while Ferenc Gyurcsány seems to be increasing his influence. After Jobbik, the DK is "approaching" the LMP, the MSZP is looking for its place, Momentum would "resist" and Párbeszéd would become independent. All this is compounded by the fact that Péter Márki-Zay did not give up his national political ambitions either. Bewilderment and confusion are the masters on the left for the time being.
Párbeszéd has won, but they also want to get Márki-Zay's mandate - Nyugati Fény, close to DK, reported the other day that the debate for the list leader's place in parliament has started. It is known: after a few days of thinking, the candidate for prime minister, who also failed in his individual district, decided that he will not sit in the new Parliament that will be formed at the beginning of May.
Ferenc Gyurcsány dominates the opposition, in close alliance with Jobbik, which is otherwise suffering drastic losses under the leadership of Péter Jakab.
Hadházy suggests that the representatives of the opposition parties should not even sit in the parliament, that a kind of new resistance should begin, but for now only Momentum, which is now entering the Parliament, has accepted the boycott of the inaugural session.
Further complicating the left-wing field, which is already burdened with conflicts and internal power struggles, is that even though Márki-Zay, who basically blames the Orbán regime for the defeat, has announced that he is founding a new party. He did this in his Easter message, in which there was no longer any trace of a self-critical tone, in fact, he did not like the DK, which he had previously labeled a "Bolshevik party". On the contrary, he explained that it is impossible for the opposition to win in the system built by Viktor Orbán, so the mistakes made have no role in the failure.
In spite of all this, he proposed the creation of a "civil party", which would be joined by the European People's Party. However, several of her former supporters have already fallen behind her, and one of her main allies, the former KDNP's Katalin Lukácsi, is maturing the idea of becoming a nun. In any case, according to the research of the Viewpoint Institute
opposition sympathizers mostly blame Gyurcsány and MZP for the serious fiasco, and not the construction of the coalition.
In any case, Márki-Zay, who retreated to Hódmezővásárhely and was condemned by both DK and Jobbik, does not seem to want to leave national politics either, but his chances are very limited. Gy. Erzsébet Németh, the current deputy mayor of Budapest, will certainly sit in the Parliament, who may be replaced by another politician from the South of Denmark at the City Hall.
"We will not boycott anything, because we do not see the solution to the opposition's limited opportunities in further self-restriction. And we will not boycott anything, because we understood that no one, apart from the most committed opposition voters, is interested in our lamentations", responded Péter Ungár of the LMP to the Momentum campaign, who believes that the demand is justified.
that they completely rethink their policy after the fourth two-thirds.
"But if we think that the Hungarian people will choose the opposition instead of Fidesz, if we make politics by participating in the opening session of the parliament, then we are afraid that we are going in a very wrong direction," said one of the most self-critical opposition politicians.
