Those who expected that the two prominent presenters of the opposition television, Emilia Krug and Róbert Kárász, together with Péter Magyari, a journalist from 444.hu, would make Gábor Kerpel-Fronius sweat on the ATV Start program, did not have to bite their nails. However, there were moments when the reporters found it difficult to breathe.
Magyari first asked whether it was possible to count on the opposition's internal scandals after the election defeat due to the distribution of candidate seats in the by-elections, to which Kerpel replied that on April 3 the entire opposition suffered a very serious defeat, and as he said, he does not necessarily think so. that "we are strangling each other here and looking for the reason for the defeat in various external circumstances" is a good way to go. The Momentum board member continued: "There are tensions in all coalition governments, and we are used to coalition governments, because what Fidesz and KDNP are doing is very far from that. Here we are not talking about two real parties, but there is Fidesz and its "outgrowth", which is the KDNP, but in the Budapest municipality, a real coalition governs, which includes real, dominant parties, among them Momentum and DK will be the two dominant parties of the opposition."
With this sentence, Kerpel-Fronius ultimately wrote the other parties of the coalition to zero, but this was not so surprising after seeing, for example, the disintegration of Jobbik.
When the reporters asked what the deputy mayor's opinion was about the introduction of the congestion charge, whether there would be a referendum on it, Kerpel-Fronius responded verbatim with a rather strange parallel:
"The referendum is a tool that can reduce a complicated question to Yes-No. However, there are other participation processes, you can do community planning, you can hold a community meeting, where we bring together people who represent the population of the capital according to age, gender, occupation and place of residence, and then these things can be discussed with them and a position can be formed that may seem acceptable to the majority of the city's residents. In Ireland, the abortion issue was solved with such a tool, and I think that the seriousness of this is perhaps comparable to the corkage fee in a Catholic country."
Yeah, we get it. Killing fetuses and taxing exhaust gas all under one roof. Excellent parallel! Distinguished by morality and compassion!
To Magyari's question about how many lists the 6 or 7 unifying opposition parties will have in the EP elections, the Momentum board member gave a simple answer:
"I am quite sure that the essential parties - by this I mean Momentum primarily and the Democratic Coalition - will run on a separate list."
So that's all that's left of the great opposition scumbag, the union of fascists, communists and liberals. The merciless individual battles for money and positions. The wolf laws won. Double standards and false parallels.
In response to the last question, whether Momentum will have an independent candidate for mayor in the 2024 local government election, he stated that "a demanding, independent party should not reject this possibility at all. "
