Feels like Communists in the west should be organizing around the inevitable austerity that will arise from increasingly bloated debt to gdp ratios. France is already dealing with this problem (squeezed on both sides by protestors and budget) and it will only get worse under Le Pen

Commuters, workers, everyone suffering from the cost of living crisis has to get organised to fight this right wing government that's implementing austerity policies in a time of record surpluses.

Carbon taxes don't work! They're an excuse to avoid radical action needed to enable a rapid just transition. They do enable climate deniers to portray action as austerity. We need ecosocialist change to tackle climate AND cost of living crisis! https://t.co/OqaDzcrc1U #Ecosocialism #ClimateAction #JustTransition #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Meanwhile, his government is preparing for the first round of austerity. https://t.co/hyyDdk6c7X #Hungary #Austerity #NationalHoliday #HU #BE
First we called you lazy. Then we imposed austerity on you and ruined your economy. Then we spread Lidl all over your country. Thanks for still giving German tourists a warm welcome, Greece! https://t.co/USL3k4g3lv #Greece #Austerity #Tourism #DE #GR

Make it make sense. @magyarpeterMP is simultaneously signing onto an ENORMOUS EU austerity package and AT THE SAME TIME promising the biggest overhaul of the Hungarian rail system in Hungary’s history.

Homes not drones! Healthcare not bombs! As the EU pushes ahead with an €800 billion military build-up while remaining complicit in genocide, we need to build a movement that challenges war, austerity, and the billionaire class profiting from both. https://t.co/MSro4mCOmW #HomesNotDrones #HealthcareNotBombs #StopWar #EU
The cover-up has begun: Brussels-backed liberals made impossible promises during the campaign. Now the truth is emerging: austerity is coming. And financial newspapers are already helping them sell the narrative - while celebrating the end of Hungary’s patriotic economic policy. #Austerity #EconomicPolicy #BrusselsLiberals #EU #HU
