On the perfectly lawful method of preventing opposition demonstrations

Nothing really new, just a continuation of a well-functioning method.

Different government entities have reserved virtually all places suitable for gatherings on March 15, a national holiday in Hungary and traditionally an opportunity for opposition forces to show themselves.

This means that, as in prior year, there will be quite simply no place for opposition parties to gather and demonstrate.

Legally the method works perfectly well, as - understandably - there can be only one demonstration at a time in a given location.

Also, as the public has learned last year, the law does not foresee that there is an actual gathering/demonstration/whatever held at the reserved site.

End of story.
