Green party calls on Budapest Mayor to intensify support for green policies
The opposition LMP has called on Budapest Mayor Gergely Karácsony to intensify support for green policies and promote the vision of a more liveable city with a greater deal of dedication, a member of the party’s Budapest board said on Sunday.
Bernadett Bakos told a press conference on Facebook that more cycle lanes need to be built and a congestion charge introduced in order to drastically reduce car traffic.
LMP co-leader Máté Kanász-Nagy told the same press conference that during the past two years with Karácsony in office, some favourable changes have been effected but there were also many shortcomings.

Steps taken for a more liveable and sustainable city included building cycle lanes along central Budapest’s main avenues, he said. LMP also welcomes the city council’s plans to develop green areas, he added.
At the same time, he said LMP opposed the council’s plan to sell the plot of the former swimming pool of Újpest which he said should be used as a public park instead.
Bakos also criticised the city council for its failure to reduce noise pollution near the Ferihegy airport.

The green policies is globalisms tool to tax the world to death via a new world order global state.

We should take care of our enviroment, of course, but not like this, the climate change is natural, not man-made.
„[Budapest] az elmúlt évben a nemzet megrontója lett. Tetemre hívom itt a Duna partján a magyar fővárost: ez a város megtagadta ezeréves múltját, ez a város sárba tiporta koronáját, nemzeti színeit és vörös rongyokba öltözött. Ez a város börtönre vetette, kiüldözte a hazából annak legjobbjait és egy év alatt elprédálta összes javainkat.”
– E szavakkal „köszöntötte” Horthy Miklós, még mint fővezér Budapestet 1919. őszi bevonulása alkalmából.
Budapest azóta se változott.
Budapest enjoyed a period of renaissance under the steady leadership of István Tarlós, Mayor of Budapest from October 2010 – October 2019. Tarlós completed the Technical University in Budapest and received his Civil Engineer Diploma.
The present Mayor, the leftist Gergely Karácsony is an incompetent clown who has no idea what he is doing.
He will probably go for the Soros funded LMP proosal and totally destroy Bdapest.
