Petra Laszlo, Hungarian journalist who tripped refugees is fired

The camerawoman had been let go after behaving unacceptably. There are women and children and they are just kept in the open.

It runs a weekly chat show with Gabor Vona, leader of the far-right, anti-immigration opposition party Jobbik.

Hundreds of migrants broke through police lines in Hungary near the Serbian border Wednesday, September 9, for a third day running, as the army began mobilizing for a possible role in guarding the frontier. Police have been trying to round them up and register them. Thousands of migrants have continued to cross into Hungary over the last few days from Serbia. Riot police tried to cool things down but they got into a pushing match with the people.

He underlined that 500,000 migrants have entered Europe this year, many from Syria and Libya.

He said most migrants were seeking a better life in Germany rather than fleeing war, and those did not need help.

Prime Minister Viktor Orban vowed earlier this week to speed up the new barrier’s construction.

Yesterday, Csaba Hende resigned as defence minister after seeing the slow progress on the fence.
