Will Hungary's election result change its migration and social policies?

[MsGreying]

Hungary has a big change after their election.
Rumours the winner is funded by George Soros.
This from 2019 says Oban didn't like Soros and his plans.

The Hungarian Government, in addition to the construction of border fences, has also enacted a series of legal amendments intended to reduce irregular migration through Hungary. Since their initial enactment in 2015, these measures have reduced asylum applications to Hungary, and decreased the number of irregular border crossings following their peak of 441,515 in 2015. Hungarian authorities apprehended around 122,000 illegal entrants in 2021. https://hungary.iom.int/migration-hungary

Will this all change?

Isn't Soros behind the trans push too? Or did I dream that.

Probably not. Magyar is still a right wing politician. He used to be part of Orban's administration.

If he does what he says he will, the focus will be on fixing the democratic deficits and corruption in governance. This means things like reverting the countryside bias in the electoral system, making some constitutional changes so the courts are less corruptible, increasing the freedom of the press, and reducing the ownership of public services by political actors. At the EU level it will mean fewer blocks on Ukraine support, unless Orban blocks that through his control of the Patriots bloc.

It's very unlikely to mean large reversals on immigration or socially conservative policies in general.

You know you're spreading conspiracy theories about Soros, right?

It's always an interesting question as to why the winner in a race that was designed to favour the incumbent would ever want to dismantle that bias in the future.

Well - obviously we don't know what this man will do. Politicians usually let you down. But in this case, what he exposed was the vulnerability of the system Orban created, not its power. Orban tipped the vote so far in favour of a small minority, he actually made it easier to unseat him, because you could just go to those voters directly and move them instead of having to win the country.

In this case Magyar did win the country at ~54%, but not by nearly as much as he won seats - ~67%, because of this imbalance.

Hungary or the UK ?

I'm sorry, I don't understand the question, @SerendipityJane This thread is about Hungary.

But it expanded into flaky voting systems. So I just remembered I live in the UK.

@MsGreying Migration policies will be unlikely to change. The new PM-in-waiting said Hungary wouldn't take any more refugees or pay fines. Although that might be a negotiating tactic with the EU.

Please do not repeat all this rubbish about Soros.
