- Hungarian Double-tailed Dog Party
The Hungarian Double-tailed Dog Party "(Magyar Kétfarkú Kutya Párt)" is a
joke political party inHungary . It was founded inSzeged in2004 .All of the electoral candidates are called "István Nagy." The name was chosen because Nagy is the single most common surname in Hungary, and István is a very common first name.
The Two-tailed Dog Party is not a registered political party, but planned to participate in the 2006 elections. The party made the following promises: eternal life, world peace, one work day per week, two
sunset s a day (in various colours), smallergravitation , free beer and low taxes. Other promises include building a mountain on theGreat Hungarian Plain .The party is on good terms with another joke party, the "Fourth Way," which is led by two birds. However, there are some disagreements between them, since Fourth Way plans to abolish
bird flu , and this is opposed by the Two-tailed Dog Party, in accord with virus rights principles.The election posters could mainly be seen in Szeged. Most of the posters featured the candidate, István Nagy, who is a two-tailed dog, with inscriptions like "He is so cute, surely he doesn't want to steal".
Recently the party has been a strong advocate of freedom of expression and artistic license. This position is expressed by painting extremely profound and meaningful political slogans on walls and pasting bizarre posters all over Szeged.
