Romanian deputies no longer met in session on Romania"s National Day and on Monday and Tuesday, they celebrated by going to their "electoral constituencies" for various activities, which are usually scheduled to expand well into the weekend.
This time, they"ve expanded them into Monday and Tuesday.
Celebration days.
We have no idea why Hungary"s national holiday is being celebrated by the Romanian Parliament.
Perhaps because the governing party needs the Hungarians" votes today to weather the vote of no-confidence?
Otherwise...
Hungary itself has three national holidays: March 15th (the commemoration of the revolution of 1848, led by Lajos Kossuth), August 20, (the day of Saint Stephen - the founder of the Hungarian state) and October 23rd (the anniversary of the Hungarian revolution of 1956 and the proclamation of the Hungarian Republic in 1989).
Will Romanian deputies head over to their respective constituencies on any other national holidays?
The countries of the world have 190 national holidays (some countries have more than one, but some of them celebrate all those holidays at the same time).
If we consider two days of activities in their constituencies for each of those foreign national holidays, then we get 380 days of activities outside the parliament, out of the 365 days of the year.
Our deputies will never get together again.
There we go, Hungary destroyed our parliament.
A remarkable victory of irredentism...
