TV election debate in Hungary draws criticism

EUROPE VOTES © FRANCE24

We take the political temperature in Hungary, where the state broadcaster has hosted an EU election debate – the first of its kind in nearly 20 years. Public television gave each party candidate a total of 11 minutes on four selected topics – a format which opposition activists said did not allow for a genuine battle of ideas. Our ENTR portrait profiles Lili, a 19-year-old voter in Hungary.

In our Everyday Europe segment, Elitsa Gadeva tells us why it’s game over for dangerous toys in the EU.

We then take you to Poland, where months of protests by farmers have crystallised debate about the future of agriculture – and the environment – in the EU. FRANCE 24's Luke Brown and Johan Bodin report.
