    It’s not just Magyar though. We elected the party that was built from the ground up, without any members of the former corrupt leading or opposition parties. Lots of independent business owners and academics. It was a vote for Tisza, and Magyar is the PM with a very strong moral compass towards anti-corruption.

      I heard he divorced his wife in order to stay true to his anti-corruption conviction. Something about her working for Orban and partaking in corrupt conduct, but I didn’t pay too much attention to it since I try to avoid the news these days.

      I am however glad and hopeful for Hungary! Seems like a step in the right direction and we really need some right steps these days because sheesh this clown world can be demotivating sometimes.

        Divorced his wife after it was revealed that she was involved in a scandal regarding the pardoning of a pedophile, which ended in her and also the President of the Republic (not Prime Minister) resigning.
