The police’s decision not to fine those who took part in last month’s Budapest Pride march is at least as important "when it comes to a regime change, what’s left of democracy, and the country as the day of the Pride march itself", independent lawmaker Ákos Hadházy said in downtown Budapest on Tuesday.
In a television interview on Monday, Prime Minister Viktor Orban called Budapest Pride at the weekend "not pride, but prejudice".
Enough of the hypocritical 'pride' and the lecturing by pro-Brussels MEPs," Zsuzsanna Borvendég, an MEP of the opposition Our Homeland party, said in a statement on Saturday.
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.
