Why's everyone hating on JJ so much? He's not said anything particularly outrageous. Fidesz is a centre-right party that happens to be led by a man who needs to see a psychiatrist. I lived in Hungary during the first Orban government and he was normal and the period was unremarkable. When he lost power he had some sort of breakdown and has come back infected with some of the "Big Hungary" lunacy that seems to haunt a lot of inadequate Magyar males. My wife (who is Hungarian) and many of her friends are worried about whats going on in her homeland, and although the political situation is far from ideal, especially a a time when the country is groaning under debt and joblessness, I try to be sanguine and reassuring that this time will pass. It will pass, because there comes a point when enough people are laughing at the emperor's new clothes that he buggers off back to his boudoir. There is no external threat - Hungary is not Germany. And the internal threat won't last long.
I actually came here to get more info on the electoral reforms - if anyone has any additional links to the ones already posted, I'd be glad to read them.
