New Poll: 75% of Hungarians Now Back Tisza
Commenting on a fresh Median poll published by HVG, PM Magyar said this Wednesday that it is "unprecedented and uplifting" that a "true national unity" has emerged, and three out of four Hungarians now support the Tisza government's work "for a functioning and humane Hungary".

According to the new poll, 73 percent of decided voters support Tisza, while 21 percent back Fidesz.

In a social media post, the prime minister said the unprecedented level of support showed that Hungarians stood as one behind the Operation Clean Sweep and overwhelmingly supported the fight against the Orban-era economic and political mafia.

Magyar said the latest figures confirmed that Hungarians - including a significant portion of Fidesz voters -- supported the establishment of the National Asset Recovery and Protection Office and the 17th amendment to the Fundamental Law.

Fidesz's "further decline and disintegration", he said, was driven by its attempts to "shirk responsibility", its "intolerable parliamentary performance", and that "more and more of its crimes are being exposed".

Magyar added that the current cabinet meeting is also discussing proposals to make Hungarians' lives easier and safer, about which the public will be informed on Thursday.
