Orbán hat seine Wahlniederlage eingestanden. Damit verliert
1. Putin seinen treuesten Vasallen in der EU.
2. Trump seinen wichtigsten ideologischen Verbündeten in Europa.
3. Europas extreme Rechte ihre wirkmächtigste Galionsfigur.
In einem Satz: Ein Sieg für die Demokratie.
What fantastic news from Hungary. Proof that if you stand up to it right wing kleptocratic populist authoritarianism can be beaten. Orban will now flee somewhere with his wealth. But this is more than a bad night for him. It is a bad night for Putin who as in Moldova spent a fortune trying to rig it. It is a bad night for Trump. It is a bad night for Vance and Rubio who believed that their mere presence in Budapest would swing the vote Orban’s way. They helped Magyar! . It is a bad night for Farage the AfD and Le Pen because it shows that when their brand of politics is exposed to serious opposition and scrutiny it collapses. Magyar is far from the perfect leader but my God he deserves all the congratulations coming his way for ousting Orban and showing how it can be done. He now has the tough job of dismantling the corrupt systems and bodies installed over 16 years. The people of Hungary deserve our thanks for showing these people can be beaten. And Zelensky now deserves far greater support from Europe.
This should go viral.
Priti Patal should be out of a job.
The grief they have given about Mandelson and all of the time they were responsible for this decision.
THAT is UNFORGIVEABLE
Going to war with a country, then immediately floating the idea of lifting sanctions on its oil to prevent your own economic collapse, is the definition of strategic failure
So let me get this straight. FIFA is threatening to penalize Iran for not coming to the world cup in the United States, which just bombed the hell out of them and this is the same FIFA that gave the president of the country that bombed them a peace prize.
Tom Kerridge, "Immigration is constantly used by political parties for masking years and years of underfunding in infrastructure, health, housing, employment, education" #BBCQT
"It is not the fault of immigration, it's the fault of poor spending, poor money management"
"Immigration is constantly used as this sort of battering tool, while we are a culturally rich and diverse country"
"And it is one we should be very proud of"
"Tolerance is something we should definitely bring back"
Never again wonder why Russia was willing to spend billions getting Trump into office.
Sadly, the Brits STILL don't understand it's all happening again with Farage.
…and I would ask my former colleague Tony Blair not to sit in a board appointed by an America President who is threatening his own European Allies including the UK !
If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT.
If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.

"The government have actively avoided looking for evidence Russia interfered."
The Intelligence & Security Committee's Stewart Hosie said the government didn't investigate alleged Russian interference in the Brexit vote, and no one wanted to touch this "with a ten-foot pole".
The fact is that Russian interference is staring us in plain sight. Russian TV hugely boosted Farage's public standing by giving him dozens of appearances, and without Farage, Brexit would not have happened. Brexit was the result of a successful Russian influence operation.
Please repost if you want Starmer to set up an inquiry into Russian interference in the Brexit referendum.
