Dóra Dúró, deputy leader of the radical opposition Mi Hazánk (Our Homeland) party, said on Tuesday that the structure of Viktor Orbán’s incoming government failed to address the needs or priorities of Hungarian society.

“Family policy, education, health care, youth, children, and sports have not even been mentioned in the law outlining the new ministries,”

Dúró said, adding that “this clearly reflects the Orban government’s priority of values”.

Dúró also slammed the ruling parties for eliminating the post of minister for family affairs while the country’s reproduction rate had dropped once again. Dúró connected this with the vaccine campaign, saying the drop came “exactly nine months after the start of mass inoculations against coronavirus”. Mi Hazánk’s experts will do research to ascertain “if there is a link between the two developments”, she said.

Meanwhile, Dúró said

employees of the public sector would lose out because the new government was unconcerned by “the number of areas suffering from low pay and labour shortages”.

Also, Dúró called it “outrageous” that Antal Rogan, the prime minister’s cabinet chief, will be in charge of the secret services, whose activities have so far been overseen by three ministries. Rogan is “unsuited” to the task, she insisted.

As we wrote earlier, the Mi Hazánk is proposing scrapping lawmakers’ immunity with a view to curbing “politicians’ crimes”, details HERE.

    Apart from “sports”, Ms Dúró isn’t off target.

    As (very) sports-minded (and sporting) person, I’m somewhat surprised by Dóra Dúró’s opinion about “sports” not getting a fair deal by the government. One only needs to see just how much the Orbán government has spent on building flashy new sports stadia, and the hosting of a multitude of international sports events in the last twelve years.

    Further to that, I will say, if only half of all that money was spent upgrading hospitals, fair pay (EU average) to medical professionals and educators, then the good people of Hungary would better off.

    Having travelled extensively, I have to admit that some of Hungary’s hospitals are still lagging behind in the 19th century. 🙁 I would be surprised if anyone working DIRECTLY in the HU hospital system would dispute my opinion.

    Not having ministerial portfolios explicitly dealing with health and education (separately), already shows what direction the Orbán government is taking. But, that’s just MY OPINION.

    The fewer the Ministries, the more goes to the very few already in the cabinet, and by that, I also mean MORE PAY. Let’s just hope that the persons responsible for those fields are very good at multitasking, or they’re all jack of all trades, otherwise those fields will “suffer”.
