The city administration is planning this year's budget with a deficit of HUF fifty billion.

The Tisza Party has admitted that it supports Budapest's bankruptcy budget, which means that the Karácsony-DK-Tisza grand coalition has been formed, the head of the Fidesz-KDNP faction in the capital told reporters during the break of the Capital Assembly session on Wednesday.

Alexandra Szentkirályi added: since the summer, they have been saying that there is a pact that was born "in a smoky room, while drinking lemonade", and now it can be treated as a fact, because the parties participating in it practically admitted it.

Tisza, the Democratic Coalition, Gergely Karácsony, together with Dávid Vitézy, jointly legitimize the bankruptcy budget, which is an illegal budget, and with this they admit that there is no problem with the way the capital city government has managed its business in recent years, he added. According to this, there is no problem with the squandering of the more than HUF 200 billion in savings with which Gergely Karácsony took over the capital, he noted.

According to the politician, the city administration is planning this year's budget with a deficit of HUF fifty billion, and this is being bridged by not wanting to comply with the laws and not planning to include a mandatory contribution in the budget.

The laws apply to everyone, Gergely Karácsony also took the oath to observe and enforce the laws - highlighted Alexandra Szentkirályi.

He added: they ask the mayor not to treat himself as if he is above the law and to restore the legal functioning of the capital, to have deputy mayors and to have a legal budget for Budapest.
