Deutsch: Left-wing bloc shows ‘blatant hunger for power’ when allocating committee posts
Fidesz MEP Tamas Deutsch on Tuesday berated the left-wing bloc of the European Parliament for showing "raw and blatant hunger for power" by excluding Patriots for Europe MEPs from EP committees.
The head of the Fidesz-Christian Democrat EP group accused the left-wing bloc of “disregarding written European rules”, divvying up president and vice-president posts among themselves.
Deutsch also accused the Hungarian opposition Tisza Party of “actively participating” in “stealing” the posts in the environmental protection committee that, he insisted, rightfully belonged the Patriots for Europe group.
