EU considers stripping Hungary of voting rights over Ukraine obstruction

  2. Haven’t we been reading this same line for the best part of 3 years?

    Always *considering* but never *doing*

  3. Fucking do it already. Hungary is a rogue state. Until Orban is gone they shouldnt have any say.

  6. doesnt mean anything as long as vucuck still has voting rights,

  8. And as usual, these spineless nobodies lack the courage to do anything.

  9. How about suspending Hungary’s EU membership until Orban gets the shaft?

  11. Hungry should have been suspended years ago. It’s crazy to have a fox in the hen house

  12. “Vote how we tell you to, or we will take away your right to vote”

    Democracy at it’s finest.

    Kek.

  14. 5 years from now: “EU considers considering slapping Hungary in the hands”

  15. I cant fucking stand it anymore
    DO IT

    And dont wonder why people loose trust in Democracy

  20. Democracy? If you don’t agree with us, you lose your ability to disagree with us!

    Sounds like something that could be coming soon to the US.

  21. The thing is, if you kick Hungary out, Hungary becomes an even bigger vassal state of Russia. You must be very sure there is absolutely no way for things to turn around before giving up all influence. 

  22. “considers”…yeah, yeah…” that’s all folks!”

  23. Hungary deserves to be booted out of the EU. It’s a fully fascist state now.

  26. If you’re not going to defend Europe, you don’t belong in the union

  27. The EU really needs processes for dealing with members that are not honouring their commitments (such as to democratic government). Maybe Implement a ‘sin bin’ for such countries, removing some of the member benefits.

  28. Need to find a way to completely boot them at this point

  29. That’s the modern democracy: if they won’t vote the way you want, simply don’t let the vote 👌💪

  30. Yeah, yeah. For the umpteenth time. If I were Orban, I would not take the threat serious any more either.

  31. I feel the title is a bit misleading. There has been talk about that for many years and its democratic downward slide is the big factor for that. Them being a problem for this is a motivation to do it but not the sole reason.

    Also for those that don’t know: The EU can’t kick member out, members can only leave themselves. So voting rights is the biggest action the EU can take.

  32. I don’t like it. Either kick them out or let them do their thing as an equal, but don’t go pulling weird half-measures out of your ass.

  33. Oh god please yes. Orban has been doing nothing except blocking any proper movement. If a system can be sabotaged that easily then it needs to be adapted

  35. I swear I saw this same headline like a month ago. Same as then; stop considering and start fucking doing. Nobody gives a shit about empty threats. Man, EU really needs some action in this regard.

  36. Could end the war just by agreeing with Russia that they can take over Hungary if they leave Ukraine. Seems like a win-win, everyone gets what they want. Putin gets to inflate his ego by fulfilling his imperialist fantasies and Hungarians finally get to be railed in the ass by Russia on the daily just like in their fantasies.

  38. I mean, how has Viktor Orban’s Hungary contributed in any way to the EU?

    Hungary is a net benefactor of the the EU, not a net contributor, yet all Orban ever does is bite the hand that feeds him

  39. And I considered to own the Bahamas. Kneel before your new king and weep, maybe.

    Haven’t decided yet though.

  40. It’s not a democracy when the countries are allowed to vote wrongly!

  43. Reality: “Some EU countries are proposing it but it will never pass as it requires all 27 (aside from Hungary) to vote for it”.

    The title is silly, and the whole piece is a waste of space. Not gonna happen.

  44. Hungry is like Russia with slightly better bathrooms.

  45. If they lose there voting rights, what incentives are left for them to stay in the EU?
