Free Democrat caucus leader János Kóka yesterday re-asserted that he will stay on as Free Democrat caucus leader for as long as he has “the confidence of a majority of caucus members and while the prospect of crisis management and tax cuts remains”.
“The level of performance of the newly elected chairman Attila Retkes is illustrated by the number of those leaving the party and the hundreds protesting his policy and his comments,” Kóka told reporters in Parliament.
Kóka later told Klubrádió Monday evening that he will meet Retkes later in the week.
When elected party chairman on July 12, Retkes threatened Kóka with expulsion from the party unless he offered his resignation.
Meanwhile Retkes favours national council leader István Szent-Iványi as caucus leader, although the latter denied that he is ready to accept the job on ATV television station on Monday night.
Oh, he has the confidence alright!
There are still at least 9 months of unbridled time of theft opportunity available before it gets harder to steal unabashedly. You gotta use that time wisely and productively. Szdsz style. Cover your tracks, eliminate papertrail, pay off potential whistleblowers, threaten them if need be, grab whatever public funds are available still for the rainy szdsz jewish days. Retkes is pissed, because him and his group of crooks will find only the empty coffers trying to milk. I can sympathize with his grievance. How can this guy and his bunch of criminals make off with all the freeloaded money from the taxpayers, leaving us jackshit?
The best part of this type of jewish bandits’ performance is when they get to each other’s throats for the leftover booty.
From this point on, they’ll kill each other.
Can’t wait to see that spectacle!
Dear beju,
The fight is who will be “caucus leader”.
It is a typical internal party position inside a Party. It is the guy who makes the other MPs toe the party line.
It has no real meaning in relation to what one can control in the State. That you have to be a Minister to do.
But living in the US for so long time I do understand that you do have problems understanding typical European Parliament work.
Careful, although we do not call it a parliament, our congress functions in a similar way, so living in the US is not an excuse…thought living under a rock is.
@C’est moi,
Your congress?
Please!
You don’t have a clue about the US Congress, neither the European Parliament.
Save everyone a snook and hitch a ride to Tel Aviv while it’s feasible.

You were going to say party whip. Let me tell you, party whips formulate party policy in every and any democracy. They are the ones performing in participatory democracies. Not the respected party bosses however behind the scenes they’re trying to operate.
A party whip is more powerful, than a party president whether you contend with that assertion or not.
They put a face to a name on behalf of their party.
That’s why Koka knows he has the upper hand against Retkes.
He does.
Yes, Koka does obviously have the upper hand at the moment against Koka.
True that there is a dynamic built in between the Parliamentarian group and the Party. The Party is normally more ideological motivated and more interested in the mid-terms polls than the members of the Parliamentarian group, who more look to what can be compromised (and/or pocketed).
But this cat-fight inside SZDSZ does not affect their fingers in the tills, then their fingers have been replaced by MSZP ones.
So, your first post is still a bit off the mark.
