Péter Magyar willing to waive immunity ‘if Hungary joins the European Public Prosecutor’s Office’

Leader of the opposition Tisza Party Péter Magyar has said he would be willing to waive his immunity if Hungary were to sign up to join the European Public Prosecutor’s Office.

In a post on Facebook on Sunday, Péter Magyar addressed the prime minister, insisting that “half of the state apparatus” was filing legal action against him every day, “while you are systematically tearing our country apart”. He also suggested that the PM and the public prosecutor were working in cahoots with one another.

He vowed that if the government were to vote for Hungary to join the European Prosecutor’s Office, he would waive his right to immunity. “Do we have a deal, prime minister? Let’s see if you or I end up in the cold … the sun never shines through a prison window…”

  1. It’s too easy to use logic to pick apart Fidesz any day of the week. Peter Magyar called these lying bandits out. Balasz Orban really put his foot in his mouth when he on his own exposed the total hypocrisy of the Fidesz campaign to prevent Ukraine from defending itself. He tried to spin out the idea that Ukraine should not defend itself by saying Hungary would not defend itself from Russia in such a situation. The fat man had to come out the next day to save Balasz by making the ridiculous statement that Hungary should defend itself but Ukraine should not. This negative news about Balazs Orban totally wiped out public attention from Fidesz’ attempts to smear Magyar with a story about his girlfriend. What happens when you have a dictatorship that controls everything including the media is that the bandits get overconfident and think that they can say and do anything because they have power. They end up stepping in their own sh*t.

  2. Just self destructing BIG Time is Fidesz.
    Larry – concur.
    Pressurization on Orban, the Fidesz Government, the CRACK’s have appeared getting LARGER.
    Will they continue to IMPLODE ?
    Yes, as numbers especially from the “lower” status members of Fidesz – abandon ship.
    When the “inner sanctum” begins it’s BLOOD Letting, intensified if Orban has the Guts to bring on a PURGE, which would hasten his end demise – being an act of Political Suicide, that’s when there will BE “thunderbolts” flying from ALL angles at the name Orban and the Fidesz Government / Political Party.
    Heinous – on-going the actions of the Orban – Fidesz Government of Hungary – that is IMPLODING.

  3. Hungary should not acknowledge any biased socialist EU or World Courts. The EU court is trying to force migrants unto Hungary even when terrorists’ activities by migrants is on the rise. Germans are victims again.

  4. Oh Maria, NO ONE wants to immigrate to the poorest country in the EU lead by an autocrat. As for socialism, look up the definition and you will realize that Hungary is a socialist country. If you oppose socalism, my dear misinformed person, please return any extra pension money you received lately and disavow using our medical system, a pure form of socialism.

  5. Socialist / Marxist – is this where a government introduces price caps and the like, @mariavontheresa ?

    Again, we joined a club and have to adhere to its rules. In short (TLDR), EU law applies directly in each country, and by being a Member of the EU Hungary has agreed to let it override our national law. Only one way to get to where you want to go – LEAVE. Speaking of which, still waiting for that listing of the Top 3 benefits of Brexit?

    Long read:

    The European Court of Justice oversees the correct application and implementation of EU law. It consists of judges from all Member states (including Hungary). The ECJ can hear cases from the national courts through the ‘preliminary ruling’ system. This involves a national court referring a question on the interpretation of EU law to the ECJ. The ECJ decides the correct interpretation and sends the case back to the national court for a final decision. It is still up to the national court to decide issues of its own nation’s laws.

    The European Commission can also take a case against an EU state to the General Court. These cases ask the court to decide whether the member state is in breach of its obligations to the EU. In some narrow cases, such as a state being a repeat offender and where it has failed to implement an EU directive, the court can fine a Member state.

    An EU state can also take another member to the court. This does not happen often, only where there is a political interest for the state to ask the court about a point of EU law.

    Finally, the court can perform a judicial review of EU law. This means it has the power to review EU regulations and directives and make sure they comply with EU treaties and general principles of law.
