CBC News Video: Overtime Law Sparks Protests In Hungary

On June 28, CitizenGO and several conservative organisations are planning a demonstration in Kossuth Square, aiming to defend what they describe as Christian values in opposition to LGBTQ rights movements and Pride events.
Those regularly attending the weekly demonstrations "are showing determination and resilience, the only things besides force that the powers that be are afraid of," independent lawmaker Akos Hadhazy said in downtown Budapest.
The police decision to ban a march for the equality of LGBTQ people, planned by four organisations to be held in Budapest on June 28, was lawful, the Hungarian Supreme Court said in a ruling rejecting the organisers' claim against the decision.
A demonstration was held "for free public life, Western-type societal development and the saving of Hungary" organised by publicist Robert Puzsér in Budapest.
