Former Jobbik MP to found new political movement

Former Jobbik lawmaker Janos Bencsik, who sits in parliament as an independent, has announced that he is launching a new political movement called Civic Answer (Polgari Valasz). Bencsik left Jobbik's parliamentary group in February, saying the new leadership's politics was "morally unacceptable and lethal for Jobbik's future". Bencsik said the new movement would represent civic values, which he said were not championed by Fidesz or by the opposition alliance. The new party would not enter a common election list with either of those forces, he said.
