Disgruntled SZDSZ leaders form new group, may challenge for Liberal votes

By All Hungary News

Several well-known members of the SZDSZ – including former Education Minister Bálint Magyar and former Party Chairman Gábor Kuncze – formed a new liberal group called Szabadelvű Polgári Egyesület (Liberal Civil Association; SZPE) on Monday, index.hu reports.

Leaders of the new group include Miklós Hankó Faragó, Klára Sándor and Gábor Világosi.

Sándor, who is the chairperson of the new group, said it may become a political party in the future if it receives enough support.

SZDSZ Chairman Attila Retkes said he wished good luck to the founders of the SZPE, adding that elected leaders of his party still have the same goal as before, representing liberal voters and liberal values in Parliament.

    What a bunch of despicable crooks! I’ll show myself out to visit the washrooms to ponder about these subhuman gangsters in between two throwups.
