Jobbik’s annual assessment – Vona: Practical governing must start in certain areas
Change language:
Budapest, January 30 (MTI) – Gábor Vona, the parliamentary group leader of radical nationalist Jobbik, said practical governing must be started in certain areas at an event on Saturday.
There are some social and political tasks that the opposition must carry out if the government does not, or if it does not face up to its responsibility, Vona said in an annual assessment.
Among these tasks, Vona named relieving deep social division, dealing with the “baneful degradation” of political culture and nurturing and mobilising sectors in the most serious condition.
Jobbik must take on, from the side of the opposition, the government’s responsibility in these areas, he said.
Fidesz and the Socialists cannot and do not even want to do anything against division, because that is an element of the two parties’ very being, he said. Jobbik, on the other hand, understands peoples’ pain from all angles.
The government believes it is above the people, Vona said, asking “Is this the civic Hungary?” Fidesz fought so hard against socialism that it built up another of the same regime, against which a genuine party of the people must stand, he added.
The freedom of the individual and of society must be protected from the government, Vona said, warning that the government’s amendments to the constitution were preparations for government by decree. If the defense of the country is what is at stake, then the government has the support of Jobbik, but “we’re not chumps either, we see what’s going on”, he said. People are afraid of terrorism and of Fidesz’s “power madness”, and Jobbik wants to defend them from both, he added.
@Vona,
Look at the Canadian Political system, Ontario specifically. You guys need to stop fighting at the Federal level, and create a Provincial level for the type of local issues you are bringing forth. In Canada, we have a Federal Liberal governement, had a Conservative Government(This changes) and provincially the same type of changes. So if you dont win at the Federal level, you can actually still govern at the Provincial level. Things go even lower to a Municipal elected government, so everybody is happy. Fidesz and Jobbik and some Democrats will make Hungary strong this way.
I like seeing you guys all stick together for Hungary and it’s Partners!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
