Attendees at the round table also discussed Hungarian opposition parties. Regarding the popularity of political newcomer Peter Magyar of the Tisza party,  Agoston Samuel Mraz said,

the party is at its peak, with several studies showing that every fourth vote will go to Peter Magyar's party in the elections coming up on June 9.

Opposition voters are frustrated, impatient and nervous, since their parties have not won a single election since 2006, and one of the consequences of this is that they can see a savior in anyone, said Zsolt Bayer commenting on the rise of Peter Magyar. 

Peter Magyar is a narcissistic psychopath,

Bayer summed up how he sees the leader of the Tisza party.
