Budapest mayor Karácsony would let LGBTQ activists loose on children?

Fidesz MEP Balázs Hidvéghi has said opposition Democratic Coalition leader Ferenc Gyurcsány and Gergely Karácsony, the leftist mayor of Budapest, were planning “to let LGBTQ activists loose on children”.
He said the politicians had made a clear statement in support of “gender ideology”. In a video statement uploaded to Facebook on Thursday, the Fidesz MEP said the leftist politicians wanted to make LGBTQ education “mandatory for Hungarian children”, adding that this was clear from a statement they made yesterday.
“They would let Soros organisations and LGBTQ activists into Hungarian schools,” he said, citing “vomit-inducing activities in western Europe” seen for years on the television bulletins.
Hidvéghi accused the left wing of attacking parts of the Fundamental Law that protect the traditional family model, saying that Karacsony and his ilk did not regard “the father as a man or the mother as a woman”.
Speaker Kövér: EP’s make-up to influence world politics
The make-up of the European Parliament following the June 9 elections may shift global politics in a “pro-peace” direction, László Kövér, the speaker of parliament, said on Thursday in northern Hungary.
Referring to the concurrent local election campaign in Hungary, he said the focus was on the European election given its national, European and world political significance, adding that the make-up of the EP would have a bearing on the whole European institutional system.
He said it was “natural that people would rather talk about this than who their district candidate is, though I wouldn’t underestimate the importance of this either,” he said in comments to MTI.
More people were likely to vote in the June 9 vote as the two ballots were linked, he added.
Kövér said Fidesz MEPs had been on the defensive in relation to EU institutions and the left wing, which had tried to undermine the Hungarian government’s “well-intentioned measures” and its support, resorting to “illegitimate interventions”.
Leftists do not like their country, Kövér believes
He lamented that far less energy and time had been devoted to Europe-building than in previous cycles.
Regarding the local elections, the speaker said it would be worth assessing how respective right and left-wing party political city mayors had performed over the past thirty years and how given settlements had developed.
Budapest he noted as an example of a city where the left wing took over from a Fidesz metropolitan administration in 2019, adding that financial reserves had been squandered ever since and “nothing was built”.
Gergely Karácsony, Budapest’s mayor, rather than campaigning in Budapest, was helping the left-wing campaign in rural areas, he said.
“They don’t like their country and they don’t like their own community either; no surprise there,” he said.
