On 5th May, in the village of Berzék (Borsod County), the extreme right-wing party Jobbik, and several other extremist organizations (Új Magyar Gárda, Magyar Nemzeti Gárda and Őrsereg) held a large-scale demonstration sparked by the recent murder of a villager, József Nagy, by the members of a local Roma family. The event was attended by several parliamentary representatives belonging to Jobbik, with an overwhelming presence of police forces, and received extended media coverage. Csaba Gyüre, MP of Jobbik, stated in relation to the murder that in his view ‘it is not enough to talk about Roma criminality, because currently there is Roma terrorism in Hungary’. Another Jobbik MP, Tamás Sneider, claimed in his speech that ‘in the last 20 years thousands of Hungarians were murdered by criminals having ethnic Roma background’, and that in his view this can be called the ‘holocaust’ of Hungarians.
