'Budapest Pride Should be Banned', Says Minister Lazar & Orbán Agrees
Pride should be banned as soon as possible, Janos Lazar, the construction and transport minister, said on Thursday, adding that what took place in the bedroom was "sacred and inviolable", but Pride was a public matter which "scandalises and provokes", and should be banned in order to protect children.

"And it is time to clamp down on the gay lobby," Lazar said in a post on Facebook.

The prime minister commented on Lazar's post: "Yes, of course, clear speech!"
