BREAKING – Drunken Orbán’s Fidesz MEP hits a woman
Change language:
In a shocking turn of events, Balázs Győrffy, a high-profile MEP from Orbán’s Fidesz party and member of the Patriots for Europe, has abruptly resigned after admitting to an outrageous act of violence. In a bombshell Facebook post at 10:24 am, Győrffy confessed to assaulting a woman while heavily intoxicated.

Mr Győrffy’s late-night brawl has sent shockwaves through the country. In his admission, Győrffy revealed he was involved in a heated altercation that spiralled into physical violence. Astonishingly, he claimed he was so drunk that he could barely recall the incident.
However, he owned up to his appalling behaviour, branding it “unacceptable” and begged for forgiveness from the victim, his family, and his Fidesz party colleagues.
“What I did is unacceptable and I am beyond sorry… I am stepping down from all my roles in public life, including my seat in the European Parliament and as President of the National Chamber of Agriculture,” Győrffy announced. In a final blow, he also declared his exit from Fidesz altogether.
Surprisingly, comments on Győrffy’s post remain active, fuelling a frenzy of reactions. Some users have pointed fingers at similar scandals involving opposition figures, while others are hailing Győrffy’s resignation as an “honourable” move, despite the horror of his actions.
But the real drama kicked off when Fidesz swiftly fired back, releasing a heated statement just two minutes after Győrffy’s confession went live.

Fidesz’s statement read: “The party has clear principles and values; those who breach them can no longer remain part of our community.” The post continued: “There is no excuse for Győrffy’s conduct. Anyone behaving in such an unacceptable manner must leave immediately. We will not tolerate violence, especially against women.”
Wait, I didn’t get it because the author was really skirting around this: Is the M.E.P. in question from Fidesz? And is Fidesz connected to Orban? It’s very unclear from the text. You really need to mention it more than a dozen times in eight lines, guys; come on now!
Anyway, seems that yes, he’s from Fidesz and Fidesz IS indeed Mr. Orban’s party. That can only mean two things: 1. Fidesz is a bunch of rampant women-haters, and 2. Orban himself routinely brutalizes women.
