MEP of the radical nationalist Jobbik party Krisztina Morvai addressed her party’s commemorations of the August 20 national holiday wearing a vest of the party’s banned paramilitary arm, the Hungarian Guard.
Reformed pastor Lorant Hegedus Jr. also made a speech wearing the banned Guard’s vest.
Morvai and Hegedus said they were wearing the vest in solidarity with 18 people who were apprehended at an event on Wednesday in Eger, N Hungary, for wearing the uniform.
Several people in the audience were also dressed in a Hungarian Guard uniform, but police took no action. Earlier this week, a Budapest court upheld a police ban of a planned induction ceremony of the Hungarian Guard for Saturday. An appeal court has banned the Hungarian Guard earlier in the summer, but its members vowed to continue as a movement made up of individuals, claiming that the courts could only ban an organisation.
I like the description “reformed pastor”
There is a New Margyar Garda, you miss that? you pathetic journalists!, must have flown past your head while you where tugging on one another, hopefully it will bounce off the wall and hit you in the back of the head.
Dove,
There is no legal variant of ‘Magyar Garda’ anymore.
It is finished, “you miss that?”
Your pathetic tries to reorganize it under another name/group will fail, now when Fidesz has decided that enough is enough.
At the moment you are just target practice for the Hungarian Riot Police. You just keep on improve their tactical training, so they do not need to pay students/volunteers to train on. Realistic training is always better.
Mr Assumption
After the controversial edict calling for the disbandment of the civic movement, the Guard has reasserted its legal legitimacy after several prominent politicians came out in support of it, and against the regime’s dictatorial attempts to flout the country’s constitutional provisions protecting free assembly.
The Hungarian Guard, now estimated at being an at least 3000-strong, totally unarmed, civilian movement; has recently been the subject of a catalogue of serious politically motivated attacks from Hungary’s deeply unpopular pro-communist Socialist (MSZP) Bajnai/Gyurcsany government.
Nationalist, my friend. My mother recently talked with members of the Garda in Baranya a few months ago. Apparently, the numbers are much higher, 3000 is the public number. The actual number runs in the tens of thousands all across Hungary. This is to give the Bolsheviks the idea that they are only 3000 strong! When the time is right, tens of thousands will rise! Szabadsag!
tens of thousands of ridiculous magyar garda lemmings will rise and sink in the danube!
lol, you are too funny, I think you spent too much time at the BP Pride Parade
Yeah Gandi, I was there with your dad, he had his garda socks on! Naughty boy!
You only wish he was gay you sick puppy……
Yes Candi, it is pretty safe to say we all wish you father had been gay rather than supplying this site with yet another asshole baby. Enjoy your silly little MG today because once the election come Vicki is going to sweep them away quick than he will the MSP. BTW, the vests the MG, and for that case, the large number of older men in Hungary wear is gayer and more paraszt than anything I have seen linked to the pride parade. At least the Nazi had a sense of style, your MG really do look like chimney sweeps.
lmao c’est moi, chimney sweeps, lol…
Hahaha, you comedian, hmmm socialist party in single digit support with the public. Real nice, gonna take 40 years to build up any kinda support they had before. Chimney sweeps maybe, but at least they don’t look like street trash antifa and commies….
Candi, WTF do I care about the MSzP, you ever read me supporting them, absolutely not. The problem is you don’t have even 1 viable party here in Hungary willing to do what’s necessary to get this country back on its feet. Maybe reversing Trianon isn’t such a bad idea, the Austrians have done a pretty good job of running their country, maybe they could do the same thing here as well. You keep thinking everyone here who is against those populist idiots in Fidesz and Jobbik are supporters of MSzP or SzDSz when the simple fact is we just don’t think anyone is doing even close to a proper job.
testing…
testing…
C’est moi,
C’est moi,
“Maybe reversing Trianon isn’t such a bad idea, the Austrians have done a pretty good job of running their country, maybe they could do the same thing here as well”
Reversing Trianon wouldn’t put the Austrians back in charge. That would involve reversing the
Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye of 1919.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Saint_Germain
Even so, prior to Sainte_Germaine Austria had only been jointly responsible for joint finance, military, and foreign policy. So if you really want to get the Austrians calling the shots, you are going to have to reverse the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867, as well.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austro-Hungarian_Compromise_of_1867
I, however, am completely convinced that what we really need to reverse is the outcome of the battle of Mohacs of 1526
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Moh%C3%A1cs
and start again from there.
Sophist, do you mean ruled by Poles?
C’est moi,
“ruled by Poles?”
Heaven forbid, they have had more historical bad luck than the Hungarians -
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_of_Poland
and a “Polish” state disappeared for 123 years to return after first world war, then was divided again during WWII – they possibly suffered the highest casulaty rate of any country involved.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_casualties
After the war, their country was shunted 100 miles to the the west. I have to wonder whether Poles complain as much about their history as Hungarians do, they certainly have more reason
to.
For the record the Jagelions were a Lithuanian dynasty not a Polish one. But my point would be that before Mohacs, it didn’t really matter; Hungary was conceived as a political not an ethnic state.
