Torchlight protesters march in Budapest to the Parliament – UPDATED
Change language:
The Országos Közös Akarat (National Joint Will) began a solidarity torch-lighting ceremony on Wednesday at 5 PM at Szent Gellért Square in Budapest. From the square, participants are marching to Kossuth Lajos Square.
The demonstration, called “That’s not enough! Hands off the children!“, stands up for abused children.
The demonstrators set off at 5:45 PM on the Liberty Bridge. The bridge was passable by car in the direction of Buda, only in the direction of Pest was the roadway occupied, Telex reports. The route of the march was secured by the organisers. It was repeatedly announced over the loudspeaker that it was a silent, dignified march. No one is shouting slogans.
At the official start time, around 200-300 participants and a relatively large number of police officers turned up at Szent Gellért Square. The mood was peaceful.
In his speech, Sándor Meleg, president of the National Association of Social Workers (Szociális Munkások Magyarországi Egyesülete) and university lecturer, thanked the other social and child protection workers “who are the reason why the care system still works at all”, despite the politically loyal leaders, overwork and other bad circumstances.
The expert pointed out that there are also problems with care for children, the elderly and the homeless, while the government explicitly punishes and discriminates against many social groups. Meleg concluded:
Change must be fought for and fought for together!
The Hungarian Parliament is more accurately known as “The Museum Of Hungarian Democracy”. It’s been rule by decree for three years now.
A protest against the globalist-socialist W.H.O. a couple months back, far larger than this one, was not mentioned even in passing by the…”media.” Interesting that, huh.
Suddenly, child protection became an uncontrollable fetish for some groups that until then, barely mentioned it.
Curious, but everyone knows why.
Anyway, there are no conflate concerning pedophilia and homosexuality, child protection exists to protect children from both.
That’s really interesting Michael Steiner. Where and when did this protest against the W.H.O. take place?
Steiner Michael – again “mouthing off” on subject areas that far outreach his intellectual “comfort ” zone / capability.
