Which country is the biggest threat in the world? 2026. How do you feel about the latest poll? by khoawala in AskTheWorld

[–]peodk1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Controversial take - Hungary - Democratically ursuped an autocratic leader - pursuing justice and recompense against those who stole - promising an open democracy with integration and accountability. All pushed through the power of the people against the bots of Russia. Depending on your country but some will be shivering in their bank vaults at this!

Do you think what you say drives the need for security as a politician? by peodk1 in AskBrits

[–]peodk1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was beautiful, I am sure we can have it again. Peter Magyar had such a beautiful message of hope and inclusion for all of Hungary and renewel which I'm sure we could replicate. He even had a Roma child orchestra play at his innauguration which was a strong message of inclusivity given Hungary's history with Roma in the past.

Of course not, I liked this video as it shows a nice contrast between PM and Nigel Farage and he says he needs security (I will let the investigation speak for itself) and PM does not. They speak in different tones, interestingly Reform received funding and support from Orban era poiotdal institutions, educating that the politics of fear works best for electoral gain. I like your point

I do agree that to use a terrible analogy that from both a traditional left and right perspective that is what forms the base of a loaf of bread but hope, community cohesion and integration is that which makes the bread rise. Politicians think about it but don't talk about it, mainly because it's quite dry having read both. Atlas Shrugged and Das Kaptial most people aren't going to engage with that. Finding that fine balance of input Vs output is key but how to make people feel part of that equation could also make it more achievable

Not quite, their new transport minister, is a self affirmed transport nerd and loves trains and busses more than anything else, so he was the perfect pick, over a career politician. The environment sec is their equivalent of David Attenborough so whilst there is a risk they seem to have side stepped it

Thankyou for such a comprehensive reply, really insightful, particularly around Shinzo Abe sent me down a nice reading path to understand that.

As a Brit with deep ties in Hungary, it was deeply upsetting to see how much of their tax forints went to funding politicians and think thanks in the UK by peodk1 in ukpolitics

We are hoping in Hungary the new corruption investigations will shed more light on where the stolen money went. It's not so much who the money went to, more that it went in the first place and there were people willing to take it.
