This is what Hungary just voted for.
No, they did not,
@dfwgator . The current Tisza government is even more strict on immigration than the previous Orban-led Fidesz government. In fact, they were very critical of Orban allowing tens of thousands of migrant workers to enter the country.
Maygar is Orban, but without the corruption and hypocrisy. Maygar puts Hungary first - not Russia first.
Hungary: Why is Orban's opponent so successful?
Keno Verseck | April 24, 2025
A former Fidesz backer who now opposes Prime Minister Viktor Orban, Peter Magyar is Hungary's most popular politician. His Tisza party is well ahead of Orban's Fidesz in the polls. Who is he, and how did he find success?. . .
Growing dissatisfaction with OrbanOrban has been in power continuously since 2010. Until now, no one has even come close to creating the mood and desire for change that Magyar has achieved. As a political novice, how has he managed this feat?
Many Hungarians have been dissatisfied with Orban's regime for a long time. The prime minister and those in his circle of power primarily serve their own supporters, who make up about a third of the electorate. Tax breaks and other financial perks are tailored to benefit these people; they are the ones who get the administrative jobs and the government posts, and their companies are given public contracts. Everyone else, all those who are not part of the system, are scraping by or living in precarious circumstances.
Contrary to Orban's rhetoric that, in Hungary, everything is better than in the rest of the European Union, most public infrastructure is very rundown — from bad roads and neglected hospitals and schools to chaotic administration services.
The increasingly obvious double standards inherent in Orban's nationalist propaganda have ultimately facilitated Magyar's rise. Observers had already predicted that the threat to Orban's regime would come not from leftist or liberal opposition parties, but rather from a renegade within — and this is exactly what has happened. . . .
. . . On the issue of migration, Magyar wants to continue Orban's strict policies.
He has accused the prime minister of hypocrisy, pointing out that his government has brought tens of thousands of non-EU migrant workers into the country. Magyar's appearances have a similarly populist feel to Orban rallies, but he makes sure to deliver positive messages instead of constantly attacking others, as Orban does. He presents himself, with apparent success, as the honest, better national conservative who is truly committed to the unity of the Hungarian nation.
