European Tribune - Comments - The Slovakian-Hungarian Football War

The Slovakian-Hungarian Football War | 17 comments (17 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)

Here are two related you-can't-invent-it stories.

1) In the diary, I mention László Toroczkai, one of the young far-right leaders aligned with the Budapest rioters, who got himself banned from Slovakia. The fun thing is that he changed his name to Toroczkai only a few years ago -- from Tóth, old Hungarian for "Slovak"...

2) Even funnier. Zsolt Bayer is one of a small group of far-right journalists who laid the basis for main right-wing party Fidesz's post-1998 attempt to woo far-right votes. (His most infamous work is a tongue-in-cheek call for violence against Gypsies.) Now it was revealed that, for tax evasion reasons, he registered his companies and his car in flat-tax-land Slovakia...
