The “renovated house” in Brussels, the “pad” for the “boys” in the Fidesz Club, probably wives and families and ALL, paid for out of Hungarian tax payers money, that is ANOTHER question on the PRIORITIZATION process used by the Orban – Fidesz Government.
3 million Hungarians are living in POVERTY – just for starters, the CREATED mess that Orban & his Finance “dud” Minister – Mihaly Varga have BOUGHT upon Hungary.
It ALL will WORSEN.
P.M. Orban, demonstrate to the EU the advantages of conservatism. Your first duty is to decrease so called “red state”. It is time to send all those who have been wasting taxpayers’ money and reduce the number of EU employees, agencies. Smaller governments function better.
