The LMP was unable to collect the necessary signatures for the referendum on priority investments, for which the party takes responsibility, reads the opposition party on his website. Previously, the Kúria decided that they could start collecting signatures after the EP and municipal elections on June 9. Their goal was to delete the section on priority investments from the architectural law, so that the government could not deviate from the valid national and local construction legislation by means of decrees, so that all investments, including the construction of battery factories, had to comply with the rules.
– It was already apparent from the beginning that the LMP would not have been able to collect the sufficient number of 200,000 valid signatures on its own in its current situation, so it approached all parties, relevant municipalities, mayors and civil organizations to get involved in this truly national cause and help the collecting recommendations. Unfortunately, none of the major opposition parties joined the collection, even though a successful referendum would have caused significant and serious problems for the ruling party, they assumed.

The statement reiterated that LMP assumes its own responsibility, but did not mention how. At the same time, according to them, the responsibility “must also be assumed by those political actors who oppose priority investments at the level of words, but at the organizational level, they were not willing to support the initiative purely along the logic of party politics”. They are very sorry that for these forces the logic of party politics was more important than the prevention of battery colonization.
