Viktor Orbán inspired rightwingers across the EU and in Britain. His defeat could represent a turning of the tide

Honestly, I work with a lot of people from Eastern Europe and the sentiment for strong leaders, even illiberal ones, is still really high among a certain demographic. It's not just Orbán, he's a symptom. Don't expect a quick fix just because he *might* have a tough election.

The Guardian always tries to spin these things. Orbán might be facing a challenge, but 'turning of the tide' is a huge stretch. His brand of nationalist rhetoric has real staying power in many parts of Europe, especially with current migration issues. Feels like pure wishful thinking from a paper that clearly despises him.
