Hungary is no longer a full democracy, says European parliament

[Its All Over Except ...]

Hungary can no longer be considered a full democracy, the European parliament has said in a powerful symbolic vote against Viktor Orbán’s government.

In a resolution backed by 81% of MEPs present to vote, the parliament stated that Hungary had become a “hybrid regime of electoral autocracy”, citing a breakdown in democracy, fundamental rights and the rule of law.

What they mean by that is that Hungarians did not vote the way the Yurp elites wanted them to.

“Neither is the EU.”

No kidding.

Hungary should do a Hungexit.

[Socon-Econ]

Hungary would do well to avoid the EU version of democracy — with its socialism, open borders, LGBT promotion, and rule by high-tech censorship. It’s worse than Putin.

[ChinaGotTheGoodsOnClinton]

Not a ‘good’ democracy like Ukraine, eh? LOL

[Sirius Lee]

electoral autocracy

LOL! So in other words, a democracy, but the EU doesn't like who the Hungarians voted for. They just make up meaningless boogie man terms.

[Cronos]

I support the EU becoming less democratic with less power. No more EU parliament. Return to being a confederation

[dfwgator]

So what? Democracy sucks.

[Organic Panic]

Hungarians voting for Hungarian interests??? Sacre Blu

[DoughtyOne]

The E.U. is no longer fully sane.

[DoughtyOne]

I don’t believe the people of Europe get to vote directly
for the E.U. leaders.

If that is true, then the E.U. is more like a dickatership
than a Democracy.

[Gaffer]

What a laugh. A bunch of Fourth Reich wannabe’s talking about how Hungary isn’t a ‘democracy’ anymore.

[Kazan]

But Ukraine is!

What joke the EU and those running it are.

[Sam Gamgee]

I love uber-degenerates. LOL. The EU as the poster boys for metrosexual.

[Sam Gamgee]

Europe is so has been. They are flailing at relevance they once had. The world, good or bad, has re-centered around Asia.

[dfwgator]

Europe is so has been.

WWI killed it. WWII was just piling on.

[reformedliberal]

...the new definition of “democracy” is obedience to the New World Order.

“New World Order” has accumulated a lot of baggage.
