- 28 Jun 2012 1:40 AM
- current affairs
The EuroGames which began in Budapest on Wednesday – also known as the Gay Olympics – are an open provocation, the local chapter of Jobbik declared.

A few days ago Gáspár Miklós Tamás (TGM, as most people refer to him in Hungarian) was the guest of Olga Kálmán on ATV’s Egyenes beszéd (Straight Talk). The topic was the growing Horthy cult fostered by the Fidesz government.
