There was a visit fee. Would it now return? According to TISZA’s plans, the state would withdraw from the current social health insurance system, new private insurers would enter the market, and employees would be required to contract with them. This would result in a much more expensive system, and the money freed up could then be spent on the war in Ukraine.
But what would this mean for families? Children would not even have insurance, healthcare would be privatized, and only those who have insurance with a private provider would receive care.
We say no to this. We want universal health insurance, and we want the security of the current system to remain in place for ordinary Hungarian people.
“over the past 15 years, we have witnessed a growth of public wealth on a scale that has only been seen once before in Hungarian history“ The answer is NO.
“My claim is the following: over the past 15 years, we have witnessed a growth of public wealth on a scale that has only been seen once before in Hungarian history — after the Compromise of 1867. In short, patriots have something to be proud of. The conclusion follows that we have something to lose. Indeed, we do have something to lose.
The war is already making further peaceful growth more difficult — that is undeniable. But to those who fantasize about a war that is supposedly winnable, successfully winnable, even successfully winnable against Russia, I would recommend the following: since we are, after all, talking about a nuclear power in the case of Russia, they should take out the photographs of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
And then I believe that every person of good faith and sound mind can see that fantasizing about war carries enormous risks and dangers.”
All previous governments failed to properly maintain secondary roads. Over the past 15 years, we have built or renovated 4,000 kilometers of secondary roads. Meanwhile, with the exception of Zalaegerszeg, all county-level cities are now connected by an expressway network.

“TISZA-style ‘freedom of the press’: if someone is brave enough to expose the TISZA tax package, which would represent a massive blow to every segment of Hungarian society, then they want to ban it, to silence it, to make it impossible! Go Bors, we stand with you!”
Dóra Dezse-Zelenka, journalist, is in Brussels, Belgium.
🥲 Péter Magyar says that Viktor Orbán is “clowning around” in Brussels. This is said by the leader of an online sham party who, over the past year and a half as an MEP, has done nothing but feed his own sect and flood the noisy world of social media with inflammatory fake news. That is all he has “done” since appearing on the scene as the opposition’s newest messiah. That is the full achievement of this silk-boy, “comment prime minister,” who mocks Orbán as a clown.
Meanwhile, the supposedly “clowning” Orbán is fighting here in Brussels to prevent the lovers of war — the Brussels leadership — from dragging every European taxpayer financially into another country’s war, and into the “support” of a country that has been economically devastated to the ground.
Orbán does this because this is not the right path. The Brussels leaders are on a misguided road, clearly illustrated by today’s farmers’ protest in front of the European Parliament. A road that does not support the tax-paying citizens of EU member states, but instead squeezes them because of the money flowing into the Ukrainian “black hole.”
The position of the Brussels leadership is essentially that European people should break themselves so that they can now pursue moral posturing in Ukraine and seize opportunities for personal enrichment. It really is that simple.
This is what everyone from “Auntie” von der Leyen onward is currently lobbying for — all those “willing” ones who are willing to sacrifice us because they need even more money. Sanctions on Russian energy, joint borrowing, and farmers being pushed to the brink all point in this same direction.
But this cannot be allowed.
According to the reality-deniers living in Péter Magyar’s world, discussing all this, reporting on it, and vetoing these plans amounts to “clowning around.” Fine. Then keep denying reality.
“Good morning to everyone, except…” – Good morning to everyone—except to anyone who would have newspapers banned simply because they dare to talk about their austerity package and tax increases.
Hungarian politics is like a narcissist’s divorce, where absolutely everything is built on lies told by the narcissist, while the other side sits there taking notes. And when, after countless lies, the Fidesz figures start contradicting even their own statements, you finally confront them.
Unfortunately, this is exactly how things work in Hungary. They lie, and lie, and then get so carried away that they completely lose any sense of restraint. At that point, numbers start coming out that look like bidding at an auction — whatever lie is needed at the moment.
Every politician and party propagandist has thrown themselves into this as if there were no tomorrow. But there will be a tomorrow — and then we will take out the receipts.
They’ve gone so far down this path that they openly ignore court rulings and simply step over them, because propaganda must go on.
I assume it won’t be a problem for them if the other side also dares to do the same — or if someone simply starts spreading a bit of gossip. It will be interesting to play their own performance back to them.
