Thousands of Hungarians have rallied in capital Budapest demanding the abolition of the so-called “slave-law” that allows employers to demand that staff work up to 400 hours of overtime a year.

…Protesters had a wide range of demands, including the removal of Prime Minister Viktor Orban.

They “want academic freedom, they want free media, they want the abolition of the so-called ‘slave law’, they also want the abolition of the so-called ‘administrative courts’,” she said.

In addition to the labour code reform, the Fidesz-dominated parliament also passed a law to set up a new administrative court system to rule on issues such as corruption.

Critics say the courts could be politically manipulated as the judges are to be appointed by the justice minister.
