A demonstration was called in defence of Hungary’s constitutional order in face of the Magyar government’s blatant rule-of-law violations.

Hungarian police took István Szakács into custody, apparently over a Facebook post about former prime minister Viktor Orbán.

MEP Jorge Buxadé accused the European Parliament of applying the rule of law selectively after years of pressure against Viktor Orbán.

The remigration activists behind the petition are now boosted by 90,000 volunteers to spread their message.

The Commission president claimed LGBT people can now march “without fear,” even though Budapest Pride took place every year throughout Orbán’s time in office.

Viktor Orbán, Geert Wilders and Alice Weidel took part in a major rally, organised by the Freedom Party of Austria, in a show of strength that reinforced the image of unity within Europe’s patriotic bloc.

The former prime minister said that sovereigntist parties are gaining strength across Europe and warned that Hungary’s new government is yielding to EU demands.

The constitution of Hungary was amended to prevent the five-time conservative prime minister from returning to power.

Aware of the Hungarian people’s overwhelming rejection of mass migration, the Magyar government appears determined to continue the Orbán era’s migration policy.

Hungary’s former prime minister was chosen as the new-old leader by the party delegates in a secret ballot.
