- 18 Dec 2018 9:08 AM
The Hungarian Two-Tailed Dog Party (MKKP) held a "Grey Pride" in Budapest on Saturday with the motto "Let everyone be the same!".
Pride demonstrations are being held every week on Budapest's bridges, Alexandra Szentkiralyi, the Fidesz parliamentary group leader in the capital assembly said.
The government "has banned Pride and banned future anti-government protests", independent lawmaker Ákos Hadházy told protesters gathered on Budapest’s Elisabeth Bridge to demand the repeal of a recent amendment to the law on the right of assembly on Tuesday.
A massive scandal broke out in the Hungarian Parliament as opposition MP's lit smoke bombs in the chamber after voting for a law to ban Budapest Pride - see video below.
