Trump Ally "Viktor Orbán" Ousted After 16 Years In Power In Hungary

 Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has conceded election victory after 16 years in power, with the opposition on course for a landslide win

Péter Magyar is set to be the country's new prime minister - with more than 80% of the votes counted, his party is set to win a massive majority in parliament


Magyar, a relative newcomer to the political main stage, has pulled off an astonishing victory, our central Europe correspondent writes


Record numbers turned out for an election which was seen as pivotal to the future of Hungary and Europe, and which delivers a blow to Orbán's close allies Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump


Magyar, a former Orbán ally who became his fiercest critic, has promised closer ties to the EU and an anti-corruption agenda


Orbán's era is over and it appears that Magyar could be on course for a two-thirds majority to start putting it into reverse
