Lajos Bokros MOMA


Lajos Bokros, controversial former Socialist Finance Minister of Hungary, MEP and founder of Movement for a Modern Hungary (Moma), collected signatures to run for the EU Parliamentary Election at Budapest Western Railway Terminal.

The party entered into an agreement with Unity 2014 movement "Összefogás 2014" in February to support the oppositions "from outside" but would not run on the alliance's party list or field individual candidates.

Lajos Bokros is best known for the so-called "Bokros package" a string of austerity measures implemented during his term as Finance Minister.

Parliamentary election was held in Hungary on 6 April 2014 (yesterday). The left conceded defeat.
