(Balazs Mohai/MTI via AP) (Associated Press)BUDAPEST, Hungary — Several thousand protesters have marched peacefully through Budapest for a fourth day to oppose laws introduced by the Hungarian government that critics say will restrict workers’ rights. The protesters chanted anti-government slogans and braved sub-zero temperatures while gathered on Sunday in front of parliament, where speakers denounced changes to the labor code lawmakers approved Wednesday. They include members of Jobbik, which started out as a radical right movement and has worked to reframe itself as a “peoples’” party.
