===Hungary=== {{See also|Hungarian withdrawal from the European Union}} [[File:OrbanViktor 2011-01-07.jpg|thumb|right|upright|[[Viktor Orbán]], [[Prime Minister of Hungary]] ]] [[File:Csatlakozás ellenes hirdetés SZMM.JPG|thumb|right|An anti-EU poster in Hungary]] [[Viktor Orbán]] is the soft Eurosceptic<ref>Batory, A. (2008) 'Euroscepticism in the Hungarian Party System: Voices from the Wilderness?' In Taggart, P. and Szczerbiak, A. (eds).</ref> [[Prime Minister of Hungary]] for the national-conservative [[Fidesz]] Party. Another Eurosceptic party that was present in Hungary was [[Jobbik]], which until around 2016, was identified as a [[Political radicalism|radical]] and [[Far-right politics|far-right]] party. Those far-right factions, who left Jobbik, decided to form the [[Our Homeland Movement]] party. In 2015, 39% of the Hungarian population had a positive image of the EU, 20% had a negative image, and 40% neutral (1% "Don't know").<ref name = "Eurobarometer Autumn 2015, EU image"/> In the [[2014 Hungarian parliamentary election]], Fidesz got 44.5% of the votes, Jobbik got 20.5% of the votes and the communist [[Hungarian Workers' Party]] got 0.6% of the votes. Thus at the time, Eurosceptic parties in Hungary obtained 65.7% of the votes, one of the highest figures in Europe. The green-liberal [[Politics Can Be Different]] (Lehet Más a Politika, LMP) classifies as a soft or reformist Eurosceptic party given its self-professed ''euro-critical'' stance. During the [[2014 European Parliament election|European parliamentary campaign of 2014]] party Co-president [[András Schiffer]] described LMP as having a pronounced pro-integration position on [[Environmental policy of the European Union|environmental]], wage and [[European labour law|labour]] policy as supporting member state autonomy on the self-determination of local communities concerning land resources. So as to combat the [[differentiated integration]] of the [[multi-speed Europe]] which discriminates against Eastern and Southern member states, LMP would like to initiate an [[eco-social market economy]] within the union.<ref>{{cite web|title=hu:Új politikai hangnemet szorgalmaz az LMP|trans-title=LMP to encourage new political voice|language=hu|url=http://www.hirado.hu/videok/?video=116590|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140513040417/http://www.hirado.hu/videok/?video=116590 |archive-date=13 May 2014|publisher=Hungarian News Broadcast|date=17 April 2014|access-date=22 April 2014}}</ref> In the [[2019 European Parliament election in Hungary|European Parliament election, 2019]], Fidesz consolidated their position by increasing their vote share to 51.5% and adding a seat to take their tally to 13. Former Eurosceptic (now pro-European) Jobbik dropped to 6.3% of the votes, losing 2 of its 3 seats. The [[Momentum Movement]], a newly created pro-European party, came 3rd with 9.3% of the vote, with the strongly pro-European [[Democratic Coalition (Hungary)|Democratic Coalition]] coming second with 16.1% of the vote. [[Our Homeland Movement]] got 3.3% of the votes, gaining no seats.
