The rate of live births was 0.3 per mille point and that of deaths 1.3 per mille points lower than in November 2020–October 2021, as a result of which the rate of natural decrease was down by 0.9 per mille point to 5.7 per mille.

As we wrote earlier, Hungary is one of the countries in Europe where the average life expectancy of people has fallen the most, details HERE.

In the (12) twelve years, under the Orban Government, all that has transpired into the population of Hungary – the political, citizens opinions – what’s best for Hungary going forward, the “BLENDS” of migration, throughout these (12) twelve years – the “MEAN” has been, that greater numbers of Hungarians die yearly than babies being born.
Nothing talking statistically – has CHANGED.
This MEANS – we are becoming an OLDER society.
WHAT is the ANSWER?
That does not come back to opening our doors to whom may wish to live on our lands.
Rather too many elderly people than non-Western migrants. Look at the violence, the stabbing with knives and the many robberies in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, Austria and Sweden. In the Netherlands they walk with machetes, bus drivers are beaten up. It’s terrible.
