The Jobbik Youth Section also held an awareness-raising campaign in Debrecen. Members placed awareness posters around several catering industry units across the city in solidarity with the caterers in trouble, as well as marking some “exceptional” objects that the government supports. Péter Nagy (constituency chairman) said:
By February 2021, it had become abundantly clear that the government’s crisis management was completely impotent. While the hotels of the tender baron, Treasurer Lőrinc, continue to borrow from state orders and the Hungarian foreign affairs are negotiating with billions of Arab investors, thousands of people in Debrecen and its surroundings have found themselves in a hopeless situation. The biggest victims of the current economic crisis are the caterers. In many cases, traditional, multi-generational restaurants were forced to close temporarily or permanently and could not pay their employees.
We continue to demand partial or full compensation for lost revenues and to encourage partial reopening under safe conditions.
Gergő Salamon (regional director):
While you are reading this post, Lőrinc Mészáros has earned a lot of money for the Hungarian minimum wage, while the Hungarian service industry is falling apart. A lot of entrepreneurs, waiters, chefs are going to ruin these times.
They don’t know what they pay the bills for, they don’t know what they give their kids to eat. The biggest problem, though, is that no one knows what will happen tomorrow, the day after tomorrow…
The source of their problem is uncertainty and the fact that the government has let them down instead of helping them.
Jobbik continues to stand up to the caterers with full chest width and we demand the meaningful help of our compatriots in trouble, he said.
