Hungary has long sailed close to the wind with its interpretation of European values. But right now, it’s on territory the EU is finding hard to ignore.
The country has introduced new laws banning any material that they say could ‘promote’ homosexuality in schools.
The European commission has called this disgraceful – and an excuse to severely discriminate against people. But will they go further than words?
