Our thanks to Len for this. The Hungarian Minister of State for Family and Youth Affairs is Katalin Novák, a woman (predictably). Extracts from the piece:
Since 2015, the Hungarians have also transformed their tax and benefits system to help encourage stable families and allow them to have children without the woman being penalised in her career and pay. [J4MB: It’s still OK for the man to be penalised.]…
On top of this couples can take out a low loan interest of around £40,000 and a second general purpose loan of around £28,000.
The second loan will be cancelled if families have three or more children and women will also have their student tuition fees paid off and have their mortgages reduced. [J4MB: Men won’t have their student tuititon fees paid off, nor have their mortgages reduced.]
As usual, “family friendly policies” are primarily advantageous for women, and mainly funded by male taxpayers.

If everyone who read this gave us £5.00 – or even better, £5.00 or more, monthly – we could change the world. £5.00 monthly would entitle you to Bronze party membership, details here. Benefits include a dedicated and signed book by Mike Buchanan. Click below to make a difference. Thanks.
Followers of this website are aware that neither I nor Elizabeth Hobson, our Director of Communications, draw any income from the party’s income streams. We both work long hours on behalf of the party, and felt it was time to appeal to those who appreciate our work, for some personal financial support. We’ve set up Patreon pages for this purpose, mine is here, and Elizabeth’s is here. Thank you.
