Bajnai says gov’t to “resolutely continue” efforts follow tax vote

“The cabinet, with a steady parliamentary majority, will resolutely continue down its path of the last 75 days, which leads out of the crisis,” Prime Minister Gordon Bajnai told Parliament before regular business on Monday.

Speaking on the last day of the special summer session, Bajnai said Monday’s voting procedures had been about showing Europe and the world that “Hungary is not only good at short-term crisis management but can also oversee long-term crisis management”.

Fidesz caucus leader Tibor Navracsics told Bajnai that “two-thirds of voters want fresh elections today, or more simply, they are tired of you.”

Parliament is scheduled to resume on September 14.

    Yes indeed. Last 75 days. What degenerate clown would make such a statement as Prime Minister other than a tried bolshevik crook?
    He belongs to a zoo with his crisis management speechsters. Isn’t there anyone who’d finally put these pieces of humanity out of their misery? With a barrel of a gun I mean. It’d be high time.
