Budapest pride ban and transparency law: What’s at Stake in Hungary? - with MEP Daniel Freund

All eyes are on Budapest this weekend, where the annual Pride march has been banned by Hungarian authorities, citing laws against so-called “LGBTQ propaganda”. But the parade is going ahead anyway on Saturday, and so are the politics. Among those attending is MEP Daniel Freund, who has long criticised Viktor Orbán’s government for its attacks on democracy, civil society, and LGBTQ rights. In this episode, we speak to him about the proposed Transparency of Public Life law, the ban, what’s at stake for Hungary and the EU, and is Brussels finally ready to get serious?
