MDF
leader IBOLYA DÁVID struggles
for her party’s independence
The
leader of the Hungarian Democratic Forum (MDF)
and one of Hungary’s most popular politicians,
is fighting
for her political life. And that fight is coming
from within her own party. The most recent challenge
to her leadership came from a group inside the
MDF, called the Lakitelek, when its members called
for
her resignation. Dávid’s main political struggle
is defending her rejection of a full consolidation
of the two conservative parties, while positioning
her party as a “true conservative alternative”
to the more populist Fidesz.
