Laszlo Botka, mayor of Szeged and chief coordinator of the Socialist Party’s preparations for the general elections, has the best chance to become the party’s prime minister-candidate, daily Magyar Nemzet said on Monday.
Parliamentary group leader Attila Mesterhazy may succeed Ildiko Lendvai as party leader, the paper said.
The younger generation of Socialist politicians want to secure a decisive say in compiling the national and regional party lists for the elections scheduled for next spring, the paper said quoting unnamed Socialist sources.
The sources report about a “life-and-death struggle” going on within the Socialist Party for list positions guaranteeing parliamentary seats. With the resulting immunity, some Socialist politicians would like to escape being called to account in court for what they did over the past few years, the opposition paper said.

Who is it you’re trying to protect, Viking? Someone you or the company you work for bribed? Are you afraid the truth may come out? What is it?
Godot/Stan,
Now we get back to the old debate I always had with Stan, and as you know I never made any deals/business with politicians.
I make most of my money abroad (outside Hungary), so I have no reason to bribe anyone in Hungary, for business reasons at least.
And I have my own companies, I am not employed by any other companies and I do not have any Hungarian customers. They could never afford me anyway.
No, I am not hiding anything. I want everything to come out and all instruments are already in place. It is just to put forward the proofs. And no one is doing that, just a lot of speaking that there will be trials.
How can it be trials if there is no proof?
The proof must be there today, or will they be invented?
How will there be more proofs after the current Government left? If they are so criminal as you claim, do you really think they will leave any proof on their criminal activities?
If you check how the system works today, you will see more MSZP-officials being charged with criminal activities than Fidesz-politicians. This in a time when MSZP is suppose to have total control over the system. So what is stopping any one to investigate and charge any MSZP/SZDSZ politician with criminal activities?
No my problem is that these lose and non-specific accusations are supported by the person more or less all think will be the next PM, that is my problem. It shows to what populism he is willing to lower his arguments just to win votes.
