       Orbán is speaking. He accepts defeat and has already congratulated Magyar Péter.TISZA currently stands to take a ⅔ majority in the parliament (largely thanks to changes to the elections system made by FIDESZ in the past decade).Phew.

       Péter Magyar's victory speech. He drives the point home, over and over again, that he plans to reunite Hungarians, regardless of party alignment.Pledges to start a spring cleaning and ensure that Hungary stops being "következményeknélküli ország" (a country in which deeds have no repercussions).He reaffirms that Hungary was, is and will always be a European country, he promises cooperative stance with Europe and neighbors, goes to Brussels to "bring back the funding that Hungarians deserve".

       Another important moment in Péter Magyar's victory speech specifically calls out making Hungary a country in which “noone shall be ostracized for thinking differently, for loving differently, for believing differently than the majority” — with the crowd going wild after the second part, as he pledges to build a platform radically different to their hatemongering, xenophobic and homophobic christian-nationalist predecessors.Also add “corrupt” to that list of the Fidesz’ called-out sins, when he goes on to proclaim he set out to build a country in which “it matters not, who your acquaintances are, but one's qualities as a person”.As far as rhetoric goes, if we get only half of this to pass we're already going to be light years beyond the current sorry state of affairs in Hungary... 🤞

       Later on he goes on to describe Tisza's Hungary as one staunchly in the alliances of Europe and the EU, but perhaps even more importantly he *explicitly* calls out rebuilding, strengthening and possibly even expanding(??) the Visegrád 4 cooperation, specifically calling out that his first trip will be to “our Polish brothers and sisters” to mend our “1100 year friendship” — a friendship that soured after the Russian invasion of Ukraine because the poles (like the Baltics and many others), regardless off party affiliation, understood the gravity of the situation and could not stand Hungary appeasing the aggressor (and just how servile and humiliating, we only recently got to learn through the many leaks)

       Seriously, he might be the most racist closeted dickhead in the universe, if he holds himself to just 10% of what he claims and presents outward, I'm down for this.https://kyivindependent.com/asking-ukraine-to-cede-land-is-unworthy-of-1956-revolution-heroes-magyar-says/

       The minister for Social Services and Family Affairs in the new TISZA government was named on Friday to be dr. Kátai-Németh Vilmos.Not only he is blind, and the first ever disabled minister to hold office in Hungarian history, he is a lawyer (he decided to enroll into law school after he got thrown out of a grocery store with his assistance dog!) and a martial arts enthusiast. He is a black-belt aikido master who also developed his own self defense techniques he named "White Sword" to help his fellow blind compatriots protect themselves. He says he frequently jokes "Where law cannot help me, I rely on my fist. When my fist cannot help me, I will rely on the law."https://telex.hu/belfold/2026/04/24/katai-nemeth-vilmos-szocialis-es-csaladugyi-miniszter-tisza-kormany
