The Everybody's Hungary People's Party (Hungarian: Mindenki Magyarországa Néppárt, MMN), previously known as Everybody's Hungary Movement (Hungarian: Mindenki Magyarországa Mozgalom) is a Hungarian political party established to foster independent opposition and alternatives to Fidesz candidates in local elections. The Movement, which did not describe itself initially as a political party,[4] was founded by Péter Márki-Zay and associates in 2018 as a means of fostering cooperation between Hungary's fractured opposition parties. Márki-Zay won the mayoralty of Hódmezővásárhely in 2018, and in 2021 became the candidate of the United for Hungary to challenge Viktor Orbán in the 2022 parliamentary election, which he lost.

Ideology

It does have a 12-point platform, including the rule of law, freedom of the press, alignment with the West (as opposed to with Vladimir Putin), entry into the eurozone and protection of the borders against illegal immigration.[4]
