Orbán may lose its most powerful resort in the EU: Huxit may follow
The European Parliament wants to abolish the member state’s veto right in multiple issues, including taxation, foreign affairs and defence. They would like to introduce a new system of decision-making.
According to Blikk, the new system would be proportional decisions based on the population in each country. Such a system operates in the municipal council of Budapest. As experts agree, accepting the initiative in its original form would mean a heavy blow for PM Orbán, who used veto many times, especially after the outbreak of the Ukraine war. He even expressed that Hungary’s goal is to be “sand in the gears of the machinery, the stick caught in the spokes, the thorn in the flesh”.
Interestingly, the initiative was signed even by the MEP of the Polish government party, who is Orbán’s friend.
Provided Orbán loses his influence over the decisions of the European Council, a Huxit may become a possible scenario.

Right-wing majority in the EU can help Orbán
A “new, right-wing majority” in the European Parliament after next year’s EP elections would give “hope for Europe again to be a safe and developing continent”, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said after talks with Martin Helme, the head of Estonia’s Conservative People’s Party, in Budapest on Friday. At a joint press conference, Szijjártó said Brussels “invariably gives the wrong response to the most serious economic and security challenges ever faced by the European Union”, MTI wrote.
“The liberal mainstream is trying to rule over everything in Europe and create a kind of European United States through weakening member countries to the extreme … they have launched a brutal attack against the institution of the family and pose an unprecedented danger to the European Union through (allowing) migration,” Szijjártó said. He insisted that “federal endeavours, attacks on the family and enforcing migration all work towards seriously weakening the community and practically destroy our competitiveness”.
Hungary wants a strong EU, but “it will only be possible if member states are also duly strong … but it requires that nation states should preserve their traditions, history, and practice their religion freely”, Szijjártó said. “Emptied and weak members will result only in a weak European integration,” the minister said, adding that while EU institutions “had been unable to tackle difficult situations, it was the solutions applied by nation states or in intergovernmental cooperation that worked”.
The EU is weakening quickly
“The community will be strong if it helps members states strengthen, forbears from destroying the competitiveness of national economies, pays respect to the family, and would not seek to overwrite the laws of nature,” he said. “We need to act quickly because the EU is weakening quickly and Brussels is extending its powers quickly; we must put an end to federalisation, the gender propaganda, and the influx of migration,” Szijjártó said, and called for cooperation between the right-wing conservative and Christian Democratic parties, which “must do well” in next year’s EP election. “That is why we also support the Estonian Conservative People’s Party,” Szijjártó said, and thanked the party for their “support to Hungary’s sovereignty” in recent years.
On another subject, Szijjártó dismissed allegations that “the government has in fact outsourced the Paks nuclear power plant upgrade” as nonsensical. He said Paks II Zrt, a Hungarian state company, had been contracted to build the two new blocks at the plant, adding that “I exercise the ownership rights”. He also added that only “a few minor administrative changes” had been made to the construction contract.

Great idea. It would be the political castration of Victor Orban within the EU. The EU cannot properly function when a single member state continuously blackmails the organization particularly when Europe is dealing with existential issues of defence against Russia while Hungary’s allegiance is totally in question. Huxit would be the best thing for the EU but not for Hungarians.
It’s HEATING up the European Union v Victor Orban/Hungary “smashed” relationship.
Orbans name, his past usage of this “veto” process, the replacement of this procedure, will add “nails” to the casket of Orban, with the European Union.
The rightful stripping of Orban having procedures avenues available to him, that are mechanism’s within his Political Ideas & Philosophies that literally are of negativity, not fostering RELATIONSHIPS with other country’s, the GOAL of the strengthening of relationships, but DESTRUCTIVE “toned” – in excluding the non practice of DEMOCRACY.
Word used above, should be HYPOCRACY. It never fails to baffle one, on how the X Left continue with the calling of what they think they’re seeking and calling DEMOCRACY. The real name is AUTOCRACY, as the public is never consulted of major events, such as SANCTIONs, WARs, and other serious events. The X Left believe “they know better” then the rest of the population, and “they” will make the choice of what to do themselves, even when “they” consider all the sovereign states in the matter that populaton. So lets be kind to the X Left, and when they say the Centre-Right is non-Democratic, Facist, Autocratic, a Regime, Totalitarian, Communistic, etc., we left can say, “HYPOCRITES”.
Whatever happened to our Politicians´ BFFs in the Visegrad 4. Their BFF´s in the European People´s Party?
“You can´t expel us! We quit!”

DEMOCRACY is Dialogue.
A cataclysmic FAILING of Victor Orban.
The EU is not united and never was.
Back then they told us the people about the benefits. “An apple with us will cost the same as an apple in Spain”, they said. That never happened. There are huge price differences.
We also had to pay a banking fee as we transferred euro to another EU country.
The EU is not a democracy. It has never been and it is made clear lately again that the right to vote should be taken away from the people.
It is kind of weird that “everyone” wants to be part of it (leaders not the people) but one government decides everything is not done. You can’t have both. You cannot be a nationalist or chauvinist if you join this club. WEF made it clear. We all need to be the same, share the same history (3rd World War), and share the same ideas (brainwash), school books, history, education, ideas about the world, science, health, and nature are all imprinted, influenced by those who do benefit most from it.
Poland and Hungary are no best friends, that is an illusion. Each World War Poland did what the country benefitted most.
The great majority of Hungarians will not tolerate leaving the EU to stroke Victor’s tattered ego. We know that the majority of infrastructure improvements came not because of Victor, but because of the EU. We can look to non-EU countries to see the difference. Sorry Peter, the people will not allow you and Victor to drive us off a cliff with Trump.
Very good, so Hungary will have a irrelevant right of veto, Hungary will be irrelevant at all, and in every aspect, as many other smaller EU countries.
No more equallity between the members, the bigger ones will command the smallers, more then never.
And many people are commemorating, not because they want the good for Hungary, but because they want to wipe out Orbán.
“Huxit” in this case, was a opportunistic speculation drop of the occasion, but anyway many would like to see Hungary expelled from EU, just to twart Orbán, as Hungary owes something to EU counterparts, or EU itself, in their sick conception.
They are not interested in the wellfare of the country, but to seize power, to reach something that hipothetically, and falsely would be called “democracy”, “liberal democracy”, the American Democratic Party’s “democracy” irradiated to every corner of the world, by any means, because, after all, they are better than the current government, or any other pollitcal adversary that do not support them.
“Rainbows and guns”, that’s the way of the “democrats”, guns for Ukraine, rainbows (an dollars) to others, but that it allways made in separetted ways, as the US Embassy in the person of top representant, was present in the last pride demonstration in Budapest, and the participants of that, should consider join the war efforts, but of course this will never happen, because only real men and women fight and die in wars, because the first are precious and beloved, and the others, expandable.
Anyone who supports Ukraine wars, should consider voluntarize themselves to serve in the frontlines, just kidding, of course they would’t.
Wow! It is evident there is nothing but animosity towards Hungary and Hungarian people from the west. Yet, millions of tourist flock to the country. Large number of companies locate to the country. The evident hate is generated by those who oppose Hungary’s independence. In the 1990s, the country has finally thrown off its yoke. Since that time globalists, EU socialists, American Marxists e.g. Pressman have been determined to remove self-governing power and make the people of this ancient country irrelevant. Anyone that cannot see the aim of the west is naive at the least.
Mariavonteresa; yes it’s because “the west” that is so negative is only some small portion if politicians, journalists and hard core TV-watchers. All people I know in Sweden absolutely LOVE mr Orbán and the hungarian politics. That’s why I moved with my family to Hungary.
Huxit sounds like a good thing, as soon as EU crosses the line. I’ve been advocating for Swexit for 10 years before leaving the soon-to-be shithole Sweden.
