Tisza party holds 1st women’s conference, Magyar criticises Orbán’s stance on women’s issues
Change language:
The opposition Tisza party is holding its first women’s conference called Women for the future, party leader Péter Magyar said in a statement on Friday, adding that “women had not been treated as they should have been in the past 15 years, at a time of wasted opportunities”.
Magyar called on women to come to the party’s root grass movement, the Tisza Islands, “and tell us their problems, and how and where we can help”. “The Orbán regime is threatening vulnerable women the most,” Magyar said. The government has no female ministers and its ratio of female representatives and ministers is the lowest in the EU, he said.
Issues such as the ratification of the Istanbul Convention, an actual way to close the gender pay gap, eliminate menstruation poverty, how to support women suffering from post-partum depression, among others, must be discussed, Magyar said.
“Women should not be in the kitchen, but in the same place as men, and if there is a Tisza government, hopefully it will be female-dominated, like the Tisza Islands,”
“It’s absolutely clear that women’s issues need to be talked about, and it’s not a shame, in fact it’s a shame when someone says that they don’t talk about women’s issues, or they don’t talk about domestic violence, when countless of our fellow citizens are dying because of it, and we pretend that it’s not happening.”
According to the head of the Tisza Party, when PM Orbán said that he “does not deal with women’s issues”, he was actually trying to scare women away from public life. When he does involve them in public life, he uses them for political purposes and then throws them away as if nothing had happened, Magyar said.
The conference will feature three podium talks with public figures, lawyers, psychologists and other experts, including Kriszta Bódis, the head of the Van Helyed Foundation, soprano Andrea Rost, and Erzsébet Boros, the head of the public employees’ trade union, he said.
For Fidesz women are just breeding machines who must reproduce for the glory of Hungary. They are not equal with men in society.
Isn’t it the apex of irony how those who are “champions” of women’s rights and care oh-so much about them mistreat the women closest to them in their personal lives AND would be happy to, on the order of foreign globalists, flood the country with tens of thousands of the most misogynistic, violent illegal-alien parasites you can find in the world – the type who have been responsible for an explosion is sexual offenses such as rape throughout Western Europe!?!?!
Pete, oh Pete…
