Hope criminal illegal migrants will not be invited to the celebration. The illegal aliens nearly destroyed the railway station in 2015.

As Maria said, the first thought I get when I hear “Keleti” are flashbacks to 2015, with hordes of illegal aliens marauding around the place, sorry to say, like animals.
Thank good gracious that we have a government that has saved us from more such invasions. Most other countries in Europe are not so lucky.
