- Orban wants to be able to ban any and all organizations (and political parties) that receive any kind of funding from abroad. Like from the EU, or subscribers from abroad (like I pay for some Hungarian ones) Orban preparing Hungary's exit from the EU? Full: www.politico.eu/article/vikt...
- A major reason for Orban's unpopularity: After 15 years of running the country with virtually no opposition, Orban's family and friends are getting visibly richer, while the economy is amongst the worst in the EU Inflation meanwhile the highest: tradingeconomics.com/hungary/infl...
- You cannot make this up: the richest individual in Hungary is Orban's former gas fitter. A gas fitter with no upper education somehow keeps getting all government subsidies. Started ~15 years ago. Funny how that is. Hungarians also noticed. www.intellinews.com/prime-minist...
