More precise casualty figures: 167 wounded in total, of which 33 were treated in a hospital (found no numbers of how many were kept there after first treatment). Of the 167, 17 were policemen, and 5 were foreigners.

Also, 131 were arrested, of whom 57 are still detained. Further arrests will be made based on police videotapes. The guy who stole the preserved tank was also caught.

Bits from yesterday I forgot:

1. The fare-right freakshow at the protests gained a new element, a motorcycle gang calling themselves the Gójs (gój being the Hungarian transliteration for the Yiddish word for non-Jew).
   
2. The new thing the Fidesz rally brought: the proposal of referendums on main elements of Gyurcsány's austerity program. Of the seven questions presented so far, I would instantly vote for four... But it's early to say whether Fidesz finally had a good idea (a populism that can be sold to leftists too), or will this be sunk in low participation like the last time they tried the referendum weapon.
   
3. In Hungary's second largest city Debrecen, the parties celebrated jointly and in peace. Note the major is a Fidesz guy who is the only one who may one day topple the current leadership, and who recently appeared to start an own, less confrontative style.

Presently, the theatre in Parliament on-going since the local elections continues: when PM Gyurcsány talks, Fidesz MPs leave the room except for the faction head, and both sideas accuse the other (and both sides are half right).
