Hungarian Socialists afraid of political disappearance
Ágnes Kunhalmi, co-leader of the opposition Socialists, has called for opposition parties to cooperate in Hungary’s upcoming municipal elections, and proposed setting up a joint list for EP elections.
At a press conference in central Budapest, Kunhalmi said the opposition “must not allow” the ruling party to divide them lest the ruling Fidesz party “takes back Budapest and also wins the municipal elections”.
“Democratic parties joined together and won in 14 districts at the past election in 2019,” she said, calling for support for incumbent opposition mayors.
Kunhalmi said her party backed the nomination of incumbent 8th district mayor Andras Piko, who represents the Momentum, DK, Socialist, Parbeszed and LMP parties.
She said the Socialists will continue their signature drive seeking public support for opposition cooperation in the municipal and EP elections in Budapest and across the country.
Based on the latests polls, the Socialists’ chance to gain one seat in the European Parliament on 9 June is almost zero. Experts agree that is why they a joint list for the EP elections.

Perhaps the opposition parties could try saying what they would do differently from the current government if they were elected. Surely by now they must have learned that just “not being Fidesz” isn’t getting them anywhere. And if they haven’t learned that, then they don’t deserve to win. Perhaps they should also try finding some leaders worthy of that name, who could actually take the fight to Orbán. Did anyone ever think that Marky-Whatsisface was the person to do that?
FIDESZ’s Christian conservative policies at the best policies. FIDESZ puts the welfare of Hungarians’ first and not EU’s.
Hungary is the only country that unilaterally banned chemically treated Ukrainian food products. Tis protect the Hungarian agricultural sector as well as the health of the population from chemical poisoning resulting in increase % of allergies.
Hungary was the first country to introduce Child Protection laws. Hungarian children are allowed to grow-up without being brainwashed. Hungarian education system is so great that it allows 23+ % of people actually work in the tech industry. That is different from 3+% to 8% in most EU countries.
Hungary is one of the only countries that saved the citizens from supporting uneducated, criminal illegals.
Hungary was the only country that ensured the energy supply of the citizens, no Hungarian froze or starved because of lack of energy like in Germany.
Hungarian heath insurance is the only country that allows 10 doctor’s visit per person without cancelling insurance.
The FIDESZ government is the only government that consults the citizens throughout its term by issuing referendums to reflect the opinions of the people on changing times.
Hungarians were smart enough not to elect a dictator like Zelensky that involved the country in a war against Russia, a country that neither Hitler of Napoleon managed to conquer. This war resulted in exodus, destruction of infrastructures, deaths and injuries.
Hungarians did the smart thing and voted for a pro populous government. Hungary is not a rich country; its wealth is its educated population. This makes it paramount that Hungary has a pro populous government.
