Hungary defies critics over change to constitution

Hungary’s ruling conservative Fidesz party is expected to push through constitutional changes shortly which critics say undermine democracy.

Fidesz has two-thirds of the seats in parliament so the new amendment to the basic law looks set to be approved.

The amendment would tighten up the laws on higher education, homelessness, election campaigns and family rights, defying constitutional court rulings.
