The subject(s) of this article, the PENDULUM remains – that it is overly CLEAR, the on-going TUMBLING of the Hungarian Economy, it’s nadir, of a WORSENING place, than the Orban led Fidesz Government have DELIVERED us to at this point in time, as a country.
PRESSURIZATION – on Victor Mihaly. Orban – personally, on his Fidesz Government, on ALL the componentry of the Hungarian Economy, the MASSIVE “out of favour” movement of disfavour of no TRUST by growing thousands of Hungarians, climbing into millions, as a country we remain an awaiting “Vesuvius” that nears ERUPTING.
Political and it GROWS – destabilization in Hungary, muchly through the name Victor Mihaly. Orban – in Europe, in the European Union and GLOBALLY countrys that are Governed under DEMOCRACY that Orbans name is referred to RIGHTFULLY – as the “Judas” of DEMOCRACY.
Mounting Political SCANDLES – centered on Orban the Fidesz Government, the Oligarchy – “right down the line” in the Fidesz Party, its “inner sanctum” – already HAVE commenced to be “aired” .
There is gargantuan information – FACTUAL information – STILL – to be placed on “public record” centered on the name Orban & “others” as referred in the previous sentence that in ALL probability will go “Judicial” through “acts of crime” broadsheet “infested” throughout the Orban led Fidesz Party, inclusive of the Oligarchy.
Hungarians – we have been SLAUGHTERED.
Hungarians – we have been VICTIMS of THIEFT.
Hungarians – we have been VICTIMS of Larceny.
In HOPE may “Let Right be Done”.
