Budapest has a serious drugs situation which must be brought to a stop, the head of the Fidesz-Christian Democrats group in the Budapest assembly said on Thursday.

Alexandra Szentkirályi said on Facebook that drugs had never been cheaper or easier to get hold of than today, and she added that the city council should play a key role in taking up the fight against drugs, yet it was doing the opposite.

She insisted that the city’s drugs strategy was not anti-drugs, but created by “pro-drugs activists” who lobbied for the freer and more comfortable consumption of drugs.

“Budapest residents have never been asked about this,” she said, adding that the mayor, Gergely Karácsony, and his team “have set the task of ensuring comfortable drugs regulations for young people in clubs”.

Szentkirályi said drugs were inspected but then returned to users. “As a mother with a teenage daughter, how can I feel that she is safe in the capital if the City Council encourages consumption?” she added.

The Fidesz politician said the Hungarian capital was involved in concealed drugs liberalisation, using various means to support drugs users instead of helping prevention and fighting crime.

  1. Maybe Mrs. Szentkirályi should report these illegal drug crimes done by Budapest City Council to the police?

    But then she would have to provide at least some sort of evidence about these crimes… No, better just make more attention seeking Facebook statements so you don’t have to bother with real facts and evidence.
