How Fidesz Uses Municipal Assemblies for National Political Propaganda

“The video shows how Fidesz uses municipal assemblies for national party-political propaganda on matters over which the given body has neither legal jurisdiction nor decision-making authority.”

“The recording makes it clear that placing personal income tax, nationwide tax policy, and issues falling under parliamentary competence on a municipal agenda is legally unfounded and serves exclusively as political message-manufacturing.”

“This is not a local public matter, not a municipal competence, but a deliberate overstepping of institutional authority.”


WHY IS THIS VIDEO STRONG?

Based on the uploaded transcript:

  • It clearly states that
    👉 personal income tax, special taxes, and nationwide tax policy are not municipal competencies.
  • The technique is exposed:
    • pre-written propaganda text
    • disguised as a “verbal motion”
    • forcing a political position without legal authority
  • A clear contrast emerges:
    • a “hypothetical TISZA tax”
    • versus 20 already implemented Fidesz tax increases that have actually burdened residents
  • The key line is spoken: “They want to talk about nothing. They are shadowboxing.”

This is not an opinion, but procedural and jurisdictional criticism.
