Australian finance minister to resign because of his mother’s Hungarian citizenship?
The court deciding in the issue says that his mother was Hungarian when she arrived in Australia while Josh Frydenberg’s lawyers claim that she was stateless then. Dual citizens cannot be MPs or members of the parliament in the country.
Josh Frydenberg has been the treasurer (finance minister) of Australia since August 2018, and he is a member of the country’s parliament. Now he is facing a challenge because one of his constituents argues that because of his mother he is entitled to Hungarian citizenship and thus, he is not eligible for a parliament seat or the membership of the parliament – The Guardian reported.

Kooyong resident Michael Staindl’s barrister, Angel Aleksov, told the court that Frydenberg knew his mother was born in Hungary. He added that “there is a significant public interest in a person sitting in parliament without an allegiance to a foreign power.” Mr Frydenberg’s lawyers claim that his mother, Erica Strauss, lost her Hungarian citizenship when she left Hungary, so she arrived as a stateless person to Australia in 1949. Mrs Strauss was born in Budapest in 1943, but her family fled the country when she was 6 because of the unfolding communist dictatorship. When they arrived at Fremantle in Western Australia, they said that they were stateless.
Mr Frydenberg even asked the Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán to verify that he does not have Hungarian citizenship. Even though the certificate arrived saying that the Australian treasurer’s Hungarian citizenship was never established Mr Staindl says that Mrs Strauss passed on the Hungarian citizenship to her son, making him ineligible to stand for re-election in 2019. His lawyer said to the court that “the evidence shows that the respondent’s mother bore the status of a citizen of Hungary.”
This is not the first time that citizenship causes problems for an Australian politician. According to The Guardian, “in 2017, deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce, deputy Nationals leader Senator Fiona Nash, former Greens senators Scott Ludlam and Larissa Waters and One Nation senator Malcolm Roberts were found by the high court to be subject or citizens of a foreign power when they nominated for the previous year’s federal election.”
Three judges oversee the case and they will decide later.

It is discriminatory that because this Minister’s entitlement to Hungarian citizenship through his mother is an issue, but his entitlement for Israeli citizenship due to his Jewish ethnic origin is not an issue. (Check out the “Israeli Law of Return”)
I haven’t tested the customer service yet but am glad that so many people have great things to say about it!
The Aussies are on a collision course with PRC
The Aussies are NOT using the Derrida Deconstruction of Chairman Xi’s thought process.
Pre-Covid
In the Pre-COVID era,nations DIPPED into the CHINESE POT OF ELIXIR,for their vitality and growth, and then , targeted China,for Rights and Soverign violations.The Chinese do NOT appreciate this intellectual sophistry.The Chinese have their own Socrates and Aristotle,In Mencius and Confucius.
Hence,the Chinese ignored the noise and built up the INFRASTRUCTURE IN PRC and AFRICA, using the raw materials of the o/s world – and that phase is OVER.
Thence,there was the need for the DEFLATOR
The Deflator = COVID
COVID is the deflator and there are many more in the pipeline.The objective was GLOBAL DEMAND DESTRUCTION and SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTION,so that the PRC can PICK AND CHOOSE THE GLOBAL SUPPLIERS,it wishes as supply chain partners.dindooohindoo
DEMAND DESTRUCTION makes distance less relevant,wipes out marginal capacities,destroys banks and leads to massive unemployment.That is VULNERABILITY for all the EXPORTING NATIONS TO PRC. Therefore,the profits are now flowing back to PRC ,with once in a lifetime,geo-strategic benefits for PRC,with CHAOS in USA and UK , and the Plague in The EU.
When distances become irrelevant,alternative suppliers of raw materials abound- and so PRC,will not need Aussie raw materials.
THE DEFLATOR has ensured that,EVERY EXPORTED ITEM FROM AUSSIE TO PRC,has an Alt supplier,from a nation,which is VULNERABLE,and will ALLOW UNFETTERED CHINESE INVESTMENT ,and will NOT opine of China’s Rights,and Soverign infringements.
THE DEFLATOR has NOT merely proven that China has a RESILIENT AND RELIABLE supply chain.IT IS A MESSAGE TO THE WORLD that PRC is the INTERSECTION OF GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAINS – making it INDISPENSABLE.THE DEFLATOR is the 1st PHASE of the WEAPONISATION ,of the SAID INTERSECTION.
The Turning Tides and Waves
There is NO Turning Tide.Tides and Waves follow a regular and repetitive pattern.This is an EPOCHAL DEFLATOR.The UK /USA and EU are in TERMINAL DECLINE,Putin HAS CANCER – and I do not see any hope ,besides the Gods in The Atlantis, under the Barrier Reef.
The FUTURE is as clear as the STORY of JESUS, in the Bible of BARNABUS.U may HATE Barnabus,but the FUTURE is evident – and the Aussies should let the Indians perish,at the hands of the Chinese,and the Japs and Korea can sort their disputes with PRC (with US help).Aussie has no role in this matrix.
DISTANCE IS A PROTECTION FOR THE AUSSIES – but if the Aussie neighbors align with PRC,DISTANCE will be the heel of Achilles,for the Aussies (especially in the inevitable future of Naval Undersea Drones).
Y has this Anti-Chinese sentiment hijacked Aussies ? It is the immigration of Viets,Indians and other Asians into Aussie land,and their baggage of hate and insecurity.
Pause and Reflect – in the future of AI and Robotics,what will Aussies do with these immigrants ? Either the immigrants or the original Aussies (Whites),will become dead weight,in the future – and that is a recipe for Political Disaster.As it is Chinese Billionaires from PRC are buying up Aussie politicians and bureaucrats – like strawberries.
Are these immigrants aiding the transition to the New Economy (non-export based) ? But will these New Economy businesses exist in the future ? Like in the USA,immigrants,aliens and illegals will decide the fate of Aussie land in the future – towards the inevitable doom as you are seeing in the USA today.
