Hungary: Thousands march in Budapest to protest against 'slave law'
Protests continued in Budapest on Saturday against the latest amendments to Hungary’s labor law.
An amendment proposed by the governing Fidesz party was approved by members of Parliament, 130-52 with one abstention on December 12.
It allows employers to ask for up to 400 hours of overtime work per year, resulting in it being branded by critics as the 'slave law.'
Protests erupted that same day in reaction to the law change and have been continuing for over a week, occasionally being marred by violence.
